"To
seek the truth in another is absurd... After all, the only way to recognize the
truth in someone else, is if you already know what it is" (Krishnamurti)
REIKI
ENERGY
HEALING
We recommend Reiki to anyone for any kind of healing -
either as a primary technique or to support other forms. Not that one should
discontinue other forms of treatment. That's definitely not recommended, and
isn't necessary. Reiki is a great companion therapy for practically any healing
modality. Reiki supports and enhances other forms, including the allopathic
medicine developed primarily in the west.
What is Reiki?
Reiki is Universal Energy and energy is a wonderful healer.
There is a direct
connection between Reiki and all other forms of energy healing. That connection
is literally the universal energy that empowers all these forms. The Japanese
word Reiki
means "universal life force energy", as does the Chinese word Chi
and the Sanskrit word Prana.
These and all other forms of energetic healing come basically from the same
universal root. There are many applications, techniques, philosophies, and the
like, but the root of all is universal energy.
Universal energy is the energy that flows through all of us from Source. But
what's it look like and why can't we see or feel it? Well, it looks like energy,
however we choose to see it. Maybe it looks like the sun, or a flower, or a
human being. These are all forms of energy. Maybe it looks like nothing. Some
people who see energy see it as light, or colors, or transparency. Some see
auras around people and objects. Some see colored energies coming onto this
planet in the form of waves. Some see nothing at all, but are aware of energy
all around them. Many can feel the effects of energy in their bodies, and know
when greater amounts of it are coming to them. This is particularly true for
energetic healers, who have trained their bodies to accept greater amounts of
energy for healing.
We can learn
to clear our bodies of unwanted debris
accumulated over years by beginning to sense the energies of the body and going
inside to where they're located.
However one sees or feels energy, the important thing is that we learn to use it
for our own highest good. The very issue of having to deal with one's
body is the reason we've incarnated. It is no accident that we're in these
bodies. To learn to access and clear one's body leads directly to healing on
both emotional and physical levels, and ultimately to full realization of
oneself on the spiritual level. For what better reason than this could one
choose to be in human form?
Unleashing
Natural Energy
When you begin healing the physical, you often notice many energies arising
in the body. This is because your body has been storing all these energies until
it's time to release them. Often, these energies are there as the result of pain
endured on some level, whether emotional or physical. You release them when it's
time. Until then, you hold onto them. Energetic healing, the kind I'm talking
about when I say Reiki etc., is a very powerful energy that helps us unleash our
body's normal healing energy.
When we allow universal energy to come to us in its natural form, whether
through the efforts of another person, or directly from Source, through a form
such as tai chi, yoga, working out, etc., we're allowing ourselves to sense the
stuff of which we're made. We are the same energy that flows through everything.
We are a physical incarnation of universal energy.
Reiki
Knows How To Heal
You can access healing energy alone via your body's own natural abilities, but
it's usually easier to let someone help you with the process. This is where the
role of healer comes in. I don't use the word "healer" to mean that
such a person is fully in charge of the process. Quite the opposite, really. The
genuine healer simply applies her or his skills to the healing process,
channeling whatever energy is most appropriate for the client's highest good.
The client works consciously with the energy, or hopefully, keeps their
conscious mind out of the process and lets the energy do the healing. The most
important thing is that the new energy be allowed to access those places in the
body where old energy is trapped, and release that energy through natural
processes.
It's very easy to let universal energy work within the body. We need only to
suspend any judgments we may have about the process, and let it happen. The
wisdom of the universe, which comes naturally with universal energy, is far
greater than that of any individual human. This is why this energy can access
and heal places and conditions we never even knew we had. This is also why it's
important for both practitioner and client to stay out of the way and let the process
happen naturally. The universe knows how to heal, when we allow it.
In Summary
You move trapped energies through your body most effectively by
allowing yourself to receive healing energy, by processing that energy
unconsciously in the body, and by allowing old energies to release gradually and
beyond your conscious focus. Does this mean one should be ignorant of the
processes going on in the body? No way. The more you do to become aware of
what's happening in the body, the better the energy will flow. Initial awareness
of your body and its processes is a strong factor in this form of healing.
However, at some point you must let yourself relax and surrender to the process.
