Do you Reiki?
I am a Reiki Master/teacher based in India.
I did my first degree in 1997,second in 1998 and third in 1999.
I don't advertise much about my Reiki practice and I leave it to the Universe to send me students/clients.
Reiki has helped me a lot in healing physical,emotional,mental and financial problems.It also guided me and taught me the value of honesty at a very crucial time in my life.I am willing to send free Reiki treatment to all who request me on this forum.

thanx. But why don't you just tell us a little bit about Reiki, so that we could know what it preaches, what for teachings it offers and what place ot could take in one's life?
What's a Reiki?
My mother-in-law is a reiki practitioner and it has helped me immensly when she visits. (of course I get the sessions for free).
When I was going through massage therapy training several years ago they offered Reiki training. I never took any of it because it just seemed ridiculous so I don’t really know anything about it. Since then I have learned some surprising things about the human body. I would like to learn more about it.

Reiki is a practice that originated in Japan from the late Dr. Makao Usui.
It is also known as the Usui System of Natural Healing
Basically in short form, Reiki is the channelling of healing energy from the heavens, the cosmos, or the universe (as you prefer).
It is very much similar to 'laying on of hands'. In fact that is how Reiki is often given, by laying one's hands on the body, or holding them over the body.
There are three Reiki levels of attunument in addition to the teacher level. First, Second, Master, and then of course Master Teacher.
Attunements are how one's body is made a permanent channel for the Reiki healing energy, by way of the chakras.
Hospitals actually offer Reiki classes for nurses if they are interested, because studies also show that Reiki is effective.
Well hopefully, that answers your question. If I left anything out, I hope people feel welcome to add.
-------------------------------------
Personally when I do it for myself it is very soothing and when I have done it for others they say it feels really relaxing. I did it for grandmother when she was in the hospital and she loved it.
I DO NOT mean to offend anyone with this question, but is this similar to scientology? Not so much based on the same belief system but using psychological methods to heal the body. Perhaps someone with enough 'faith' is lured to believe this works and the mind manipulates certain functions in the body that could actually heal itself?
Again, I am really sorry if this is offense, I truly don't mean to be. There is just so much in this world, I'm just trying to make sense of it.

In my experience, and info from my Mother-in-Law, it is akin to ancient chinese medicine. I has been scientifically proven that Chinese Healing practices can cure some diseases that modern western medicine cannot.
It's based off of the flow of Qi, or Chi, or Life Force/Energy if you will, and its flow through the body. Manipulating, or more appropriately increasing, this energy flow helps to heal the body.
On some part, all medicine is based off of belief. With this being the case, it makes sense that, in the past, the priests and clerics were the healers.
P.S. someone please correct me if i'm wrong on my facts.

So, I'm kind of right, using your own body to heal itself. I'm sure it has something to do with your state of mind to control the 'flow of chi.'
I've heard of the practice of using needles (forgot what this was called) into your body and pain caused by an injury, disappearing in a few days or less.

In a way, Yes, it does enhance your body's natrual healing processes. The process of using needles is Accupuncture, where you place the needles at certain key spots along what are called the chi maridians to increase the flow of energy.
With accupuncture the pain can be reduced almost immediately, usually it takes time and, in probably most cases (again not an expert
), takes more than one session to heal an injury. Also a note, the actual practice of accupuncture can actually cause pain as you are putting needles into your body.Last edited by Shike on Sat Jul 15, 2006 7:54 pm; edited 2 times in total

Yes, thats the method I was thinking of. I say no thank you to sticking needles in my body, however. Quite interesting, i'm still skeptical, but I'm definitely open to new ideas.
So your open to new ideas hu, Timothysm?
$cientology is nothing like Raiki. In $cientology illness is cause from having a ‘high’ ‘theaton’ level. This is corrected through many expensive ‘auditing’ sessions. After many sessions, much time, and a few wads of cash (often barrowed) you finally get to know the big secret. Theatons are actually the souls of alien beings brought here and killed with a nuclear bomb. The evil fellow who brought them here and killed them also put devises in the air that gathered the souls up and imprisoned them. I guess they got out later. Anyway, the alien souls get in people now and cause us trouble.
To test you theaton level they actually have you hold this thing that can somehow tell. Once you get ride of the theatons you are then ‘clear’ like Tom Cruse. Huray!!!

Yes, Xenu or something is the alien emperor. However, I perceive the devices as nothing more than a psychological tool to make you believe it will heal you and your body somehow takes action and heals itself. Or perhaps its just a state of mind where you feel less pain or don't notice it all.
Or it's the thorough brain washing process
my mother is a reiki master along with a massage therapist. her clients in rural u.s. are very receptive.
I am a Reiki Master and Teacher last 7 years. Reiki, for me, is most simple way to channeling God energy and send this energy to someone other, in some space or situation, or for personal needs. Of course, it is very important to know how we are only instruments in God hands and we haven’t any other rights. Any thing like “I am doing Reiki” or “I am helping to peoples” or something similar is wrong. Otherwise, you didn’t doing Reiki, you are doing bio-energy, what is something totally different and using your personal energy for healing. In that case it is necessary to recharge your energy with meditation or some other spiritual practice. Reiki is spiritual practice alone and you don’t need extra recharging. With Reiki practice for other you will also get all benefits from this spiritual God energy.

I've had three or four accupuncture sessions. The needles are so thin & sharp, they don't really hurt as they go in, just a little discomfort. Unfortunately it didn't work for me. I was warned before I was given it that as I had two lots of surgery on the area, it may not work.

I don't understand this. If you aren't receiving energy, you must be using your own - which is a dangerous thing to do. I do energy healing & my energy source comes from the universe.
I was taught to always make sure I tap into an energy source, otherwise you could be taking it from other people. Some people visualise a ball of light desending from the sky while others visualise a ball of light just below their feet.
For your information, you can read about Reiki in depth in the book "Reiki for Dummies", yet another book in the "Dummies series.
I have personally had experience with Reiki and as far as I am concerned, I have seen and experienced more than enough evidence that it really works. I have seen it work on both people and animals too.
There are those who would dismiss it quickly as quackery, but that is not true. There is far more to it than meets the eye. Dr. Usui was given an award by the Japanese government for his work, and I think that he deserved it.
In the West however, too many people neglect the deeper aspects of Reiki and are happy to rush through it. This is a great pity.

I have to completely agree with you. There is a spiritual aspect to this, and other types of healing, that generally gets removed from much of western society. In my opinion, this comes from trying to compartmentalize EVERYTHING until everything is disconnected from everything else. This is a falacy that, again IMO, needs to be reversed for human society to thrive.
I am not opposed to science (as a matter of fact I enjoy the sciences) its just that in western society science needs to be tempered with spirituality and vice versa, spirituality needs to be tempered with logic and sceince.
are the rules of a reiki lifestyle something like this:
go to sleep before 23:00
wake up at 5:00 and dance
'relax'
go kaka evey day?
some chineese woman spoke of it once, she was into it, and something with the 'elements' and stuff

I am a Reiki Master.. I got my last intunement in March. A lot of people that I work on don't really understand the energy aspect of it. it seems that all they notice is the intense heat of my hands and how warm they get.
Lots of people get Reiki confused with Religion. Reiki is Spiritual, but not religious.
that's my 2 cents....

all you said about rieki i read it but how it works and , how to learn it , or who to reach reiki master teacher level
me, I had reiki given by my friend for a whole year or so. I became onterested in ot, too, because I thought it would have the power to cure my illness (which is a kind of auto-immunological, one of those western medicine cannot say much about). Along with it I was practising yoga (or trying to, because my joints often didn't let me do it). But what I'm saying - in no means was I 'rushing through' the topic, nor was I too sceptical (a little bit maybe), but finally - it didn't help any. Any. Just nothing. Didn't make me feel better at any stage. Didn't feel anything.
So, what I ask you, reiki masters - as I see there are some of you here - can reiki just COMPLETELY NOT work on some people?
I would appreciate your opinion on that here.

Last year I learned about reiki and it was very interested.
All the symbols of Reiki Golden Age are very powerfull. And I love to be a reiki aspirant master, that's my target for reiki.
Professionally I do have to discuss a lot with people and it's very mind- and spirit demanding. Mental stress. Reiki learned me to solve problems in a different way, and it works (most of the time). I am very pleased.
In the familylife reiki is also used for healing.
Every month we have a reiki gathering with 5 to 10 persons, healing each other and also learning things while conversating about all the abilities of the people is very interesting.
Reiki almost proofs that there is more. A scientist cannot measure everything. And it works. But it is very hard to explain to a scientist or a doctor. But I learned that explaining everything is not necessary.
