Reiki
is an ancient form of energy healing in
which a properly attuned Reiki Practitioner
serves as a conduit for Universal Life
Force (or ReiKi). The Reiki practitioner
opens them self up as a conduit for a
semi-sentient energy summoned from a higher
source to facilitate healing or correct
a person’s aura. The Reiki Practitioner
is not a healer per se – but the
energy moves through them to work with
the recipient’s higher will in correcting
imbalances and treating situations from
the core causal point rather than the
effect. This is thought to have a beneficial
effect on the body, mind, and spirit,
emotional and in Indian systems - the
chakra system.
Everything
in the universe is thought to have an
underlying energy that gives it form,
structure, health, strength and autonomy.
This invisible, but formidable force is
called the Chi by Chinese mystics and
martial artists and referred to as Prana
by Indian masters and healers. It is also
called “orgone energy” and
the practice itself is also described
by the names Chi Gong and Polarity therapy.
Whatever you want to call it, the word
Reiki literally means “Universal
Life Force.” Reiki is capable of
healing anything because it works at very
fundamental levels of reality. The level
of reality where Reiki operates is the
underlying energy structure of matter,
as the physical matter we see around us
is a solidified form of energy.
The
health, flow and strength of this force
are thought to be affected by our thoughts.
Think negative thoughts and manifest diseases
and unfortunate events. Think positive
thoughts and good health and good fortune.
Think nothing and achieve bliss. Reiki
is really about helping those who are
stuck in self, access the healing energies
of a higher power. In some ways too, Reiki
can be called an active, ritualistic form
of prayer.
A
Reiki healing is a very simple, and quite
religious act of faith. In essence, the
Reiki Healer or Master can be seen as
a channel or vessel for the transformative
power of God’s love. The practitioner
places his or her hands upon the person
to be healed with the intent for healing
to occur, and then the energy begins flowing.
Into the afflicted part of the body, without
any judgement or thoughts from the Reiki
Master. The healer draws exactly the amount
of needed energy to the recipient. There
is no conscious intervention or appeal
on the part of the healer who are there
to keep the “healing space”
open between the diseased or troubled
person and the divine love before. The
healer/s job is to get out of the way
and be a conduit. Often, if you will observe
a Reiki healer, he or she will appear
to stop and watch or listen for signs
of what to do next, from a silent voice.
Traditionally,
the healer is taught a set of hand positions
that are postured over the sick or troubled
person’s body. These sometimes look
like the Reiki master is giving the person
a massage from mid hair. The Reiki Practitioner
will occasionally make scooping or actions
like he is smoothing a bedspread. This
is all part of his intent to intuitively
correct energy imbalances in your aura.
Some healers will also place their hands
directly on a sick or ill part of a body
and keep them there as long as necessary.
Reiki
can also be used to still emotional storms
as well as heal relationships. This is
done by correcting the subtle energies
of what is known as the “orgone
body”, “electromagnetic field”
or the aura. Often, hands are passed through
the air, once again, removing blocks and
negative entities or thought forms from
the person’s force field.
Reiki
is also used to heal individuals at a
distance. This is also called “remote
healing”. Although it is not always
necessary, the Reiki healer will ask for
an object or create an object that represents
the ill person. Treating the object is
thought to also treat the person at a
long distance away.
Some
very talented Reiki masters have also
been known to heal objects such as cars,
computers and traffic jams. The idea is
to act as a vessel and send the situation
light so that it will correct itself.
In
a way, Reiki is also about breaking bad
patterns. The great sages always despise
anything too habitual as it is thought
to cause stagnation and disease. Good
interference from a well trained Reiki
master or light worker is thought to break
these patterns and allow fresh energy
to trigger the process of healing.
