What is Reiki? What a difficult
question to answer. Our English language does not have any words to
describe it. I can tell you that the word “Reiki” is Japanese for
“Universal Life Force." It’s that energy called “life” that binds
all living things together. The Chinese say “Chi." I can tell you that when I attune someone to the Reiki energy using the mantras and symbols for Reiki, I can feel a shift in the person’s energy. I have also seen that my students develop a strong intuition and the talents they had before their attunement are strengthened and refined. What I can’t tell you is exactly how Reiki works. But then I can’t tell you exactly how a Tylenol works, either. Lots of folks are trying to explain it. None can quite provide the answer. I can tell you that being able to accept healing from a source you don’t completely understand is a step in spiritual growth. You can read every word written about Reiki
and still not know the whole meaning of Reiki. You can question,
argue with, accept or reject what you read. At some point you
must put aside the printed material and search with your heart
and with your faith to begin to truly understand it. |
