			<description>hi Frank 



Thanks for the info... Drawing CKR with tounge on roof top of mouth is very powerful feeling... However i dont precisely recollect whether the technique was gyoshi ho or gyoshi kokki (or kokyo) ho...one is for empowering breath and other is sweetening of breath for initiations... Please pour some light if you have that info handy atm.



Hey how manage to add accent over 'o' in gassho  ? Some keyboard trick?



Take care

			<description>Being Reiki is a lovely phenomenon, we all agree to it.... i thought i would invite some share from buddies out there that what they feel 'being reiki' brings to them ?









to start with, lets see ! 



........being reiki, we relaize that anger dissipates as soon as we allow freedom to others





........being reiki, my worries dissipate when i detach from outcomes



........being reiki, work is not a burden anymore, rather a path to personal completion

			<description>  At first when started learning Reiki I had mixed feelings.  At first it was  what on earth is this all about?  Slowly I became quite fascinated when I realised that I could actually not only help myself but also others.  After Reiki 2 I began reading books trying to find out as much as I could about the subject.  The more I read  the feeling of wonder began to be replaced with a desire to learn more and more.

Suddenly I became confused with all the different  viewpoints.  I was analysing everything  ...</description>

			<description>hi buddies!



Good noon 



reiki sessions often give us a feel of a spiritual experience, or if you choose to describe otherwise, reiki sessions give us a sensation that an energetic 'connection' has been established between us and the client.. 



within initiations, such 'connection' is more highly visible, and some would say, is the essence of the whole initiation ceremony...



what do you feel about it ? and how do you view about importance of 'rapport' within a reiki session, be it a  ...</description>

<br />

<br />
 Since I got involved in Reiki, specifically Komyo, I`ve been interested in the nature  of compasion. This link I will post, has a short read by a fellow we all know. It`s not that long and I feel this article to be of value to anyone who can understand it`s concepts.

			<description>namaskar,



i have been very busy hence could not post any articles or posts for the past couple of months.



on saturday, i attuned a blind person as reiki master. it was a challenge.

now he is already doing healing work and now will take up teach reiki to his fellow students.



he will utilize the reiki manuals to get some pages , main ones, into braille so that it is easier for them rather than memorizing everything.



i am so happy i wanted to share this information with this site.

Just in case it has slipped anyone's memory:





Today is the 145th anniversary of the birth of Mikao Usui





               









It's also International Reiki Day

This is often the first question I ask my students and it is also the first question usually asked by Phyllis Furumoto of her interviewees on her radio show.



I'll start the ball rolling!

			<description>Spiritual Healer I love your quote

Give a Reiki treatment and help for a time.

Give the gift of a Reiki attuenment and help for a lifetime!



I have folks who come to me for 

Reiki sessions who have been 

diagnosed with cancer. I know the 

benefits of self-healing yet at a 

crisis time in their life they just

need the support system and are 

generally not ready to step into a 

Practitioner's role,until after they 

have healed.     </description>

I am sure many of us learn quite a lot from the varied views and pearls of wisdom expressed here.



In order to help this community grow even more, it would be useful to know where members first heard about this forum.

			<description>In another topic The Reiki Principles Song (in German) I posted a link to Die Reiki-Lebensregeln (The Reiki &quot;Life Rules&quot;) 

- sung in German by Annette Rohrbach, accompanied by Henner Rohrbach on guitar.



This time (yes, anyone reading the title of this post will have guessed), here is a link to a version of The Reiki Principles Song, sung in Japanese, by Takahashi-san  - apparently one of Hiroshi Doi's Master-level students:

			<description>Hi,



I ran across this a couple of nights ago and decided to try it (minus chanting).  I laid down while doing this meditation and within seconds I got really warm in my heart area and lower abdomen.  The warmth radiated out in circles until they almost met each other.  I didn't feel any tingles in my arms or legs, but could not feel my hands nor feet touching each other eventhough I knew they were.  



I am curious if anyone does this medition, what you think of it, and your experiences.

I am eager to hear from anyone interested in sharing about their Kundalini Attunements and the cleansing periods that followed.



Do you love your Kundalini Reiki?



Any advices and comments?



Thank you,





Here's what I felt:-



I, so far only have KR1 &amp; KR2 attunements. It was long distance attunements.



With KR1, I felt it in my spine, something climbing up only in a part of my spine.



With KR2, I was sitting with a whole bunch of crystals  ...</description>

			<description>hi friends 



Takata Sensei has been reported to say that with SHK we talk to the sub-conscious !



i wanted to know the prevailing practices among folks here, that how do they use SHK when they intend to use it for emotional healing of others, addiction /bad habits control, anger therapy, etc. ?





examples :



do they embed SKH to base of skull, viewed by some as seat of sub-concsious ? 



do they talk silently to the sub-sconsious of the patient giving commands or suggestion like in  ...</description>

			<description>When reviewing my Reiki brochure

I took the word complementary out

of the written text. 



There has been much discussion around

Takata's teaching and I realized that 

the buzz word &quot;Complementary Reiki&quot; does 

a dis-service to what Reiki is all about. 

It is more than complementary. This word 

was introduced to me as a way not to 

offend the medical profession.  



Have we as Reiki practitioners tweaked

how we present Reiki so it can be accepted

The third one (or the fourth, depending on who you ask) is &quot;Be Grateful&quot;.

			<description>So,I'm looking into this and came across this site : http://www.harmonyhealing.co.uk/index.htm



Apparently, the melding of reiki and egyptian healing energies as a reiki variant was created by the woman who owns this site. I'm thinking of giving it a try at some point, either as a parallel while I continue on to master under the usui &quot;western&quot; tradition, or maybe just start fresh with this newer system, it seems really interesting. thoughts/ experiences with it? opinions?

Do you know how the author gets their content?

Do you know the proper way for an author to get their content?

Today I'm reviewing and rewriting another chapter in my manuscr&#105;pt. This chapter is about meditation. I have a question.

What's the difference between Reiki methods and/or techniques and meditation?

I think the two are one in the same.

			<description>HERE IS ANOTHER ASPECT OF THE THREAD, &quot;Which Reiki forms are the most powerful?&quot;

    We can all easily accept the fact that EACH REIKI STYLE has it own frequency.  Any research (eg. Biofeedback/ Kirlian/ other) out there to confirm this?

If the answer is &quot;No&quot;, I'll deal with that issue later.



Let's continue on for the moment...If you can identify a REIKI FORM of healing based on it's frequency, what purpose would it serve?  The frequency has to be associated with SOMETHING.  ...</description>

this can be termed as 'active presence, and passive participation' in the reiki process..

			<description> &quot;Don't worry&quot;.  What's the point in worry?  What a waste of energy worry is.  Yet it keeps coming back to harass some more.  How to handle worry?  Do you console it and hope it calms down for awhile?  Worry is an indicator of insecurity of some kind.  Best to face it and accept it as &quot;human frailty&quot;.  Shifting focus on something constructive is a good strategy.  When I catch myself &quot;worrying&quot;, I get involved in an activity that I like doing...like a favorite hobby,  ...</description>

			<description><![CDATA[I would like to invite others to send reiki to the BP oil spill this weekend.  I've sent a little already and felt improvements, but would assume that the more the merrier.
<br />

<br />
If you have a free 10-30 minutes in the next several days, think of the BP oil spill and send reiki to it.
<br />

Save the fishies!]]></description>

			<title>Reiki Practitioners who are afraid of the "Symbols".</title>

			<description>I've been scanning other REIKI forums and came across a very interesting topic:  there are actually practitioners out there who are &quot;AFRAID OF THE SYMBOLS&quot;.  How is it possible that these people suspect the symbols to be linked to &quot;sorcery&quot;? VERY ODD.  It contradicts everything I know about REIKI.</description>

			<description><![CDATA[So, just trying to deepen my understanding..I understand western reiki is based on takata and some hayashi, while traditional is more pure usui..anyone have an opinion on which is more effective and why? or is it that both are equally effective depending on the situation?

			<description>Do we really get what we put into during the hours of time we spend doing reiki on ourselves?

Are there people who obsess over every last amount of spiritual benefit that they can muster?

Are they wasting their lives?



I'm not sure how hypothetical this question is.

I feel as though I've put more time into Reiki than I've gotten out of it. I'm not sure how much of an amateur I am at selfhealing. I know I don't do full body self treatments enough, I'm more typically focussed on one byosen  ...</description>

			<title>Reiki Ethics - an oxymoron?</title>

			<description>Judging from thankfully infrequent stories I've heard from students, clients and casual acquaintances, not every Reiki practitioner behaves ethically.  I also, thankfully infrequently, have stumbled across boundaries, when I consider things in hindsight.  This stuff is not easy.



Is ethical behavior important?  What does it mean?  How do we take care of ourselves, to make sure we are always mindful of ethical challenges?  



I invite you to share.  If you tell specific stories, make sure others  ...</description>
