To become a master of anything takes time, dedication and practice. The title of Master implies that we have become expert at using something and that will only come about through practice and personal investment.The traditional route to the level of reiki master is to first of all take the reiki one course and practice at that level until you know that you know all there is to know at that level and can demonstrate your ability to yourself and others.
You only have this moment, and it is what you do with this moment that determines your future.Your own life speaks volumes about you and about your thoughts and actions.Is your life happy, peaceful and filled with love and gratitude? Do you see the beauty in nature as you walk in the parks, sit on the beach, and watch the stars? Are you able to sit in silence and peace with yourself?
Recently I went on a 3 day retreat into nature. It was blissful to have stillness, peace and time to just be! It was also interesting to observe human nature.The pattern that is developing is a constant need for connectivity and activity - despite the surroundings. Even on a remote, peaceful sandy beach, people were on mobile phones, connecting to I-pads, had earphones and music blasting in their ears.. some people were chatting non-stop about the smallest of issues. There is a need for constant action and the lack of silence and peace in life.
It was rare to notice someone who was totally in the moment and enjoying that moment and what it had to offer.By contrast what did the small children want... to explore, have fun, watch, experience and learn. They were totally in the moment and having the full experience of that moment. There was a moment of enlightenment when in the middle of the hot sunshine, the clouds opened and a tropical rain storm began.everyone ran for cover. It was the conditioned response.
Starting Your Reiki Training.The main point is that you can become a reiki master. The decision is which route you want to take.I took the home study option, simply because it fitted in with my life better and the cost was much less.And I have to say that I am very happy with the training I received. The course has excellent email support and friends who took the other option of the weekend class have told me that there is much more information in the distance learning package.And of course I have all of the talks in MP3 format so I can listen to them again if I feel there is something I missed the first time through.The main thing is this...If you want to learn reiki you should go ahead and get started. I found it to be a wonderful adventure and I now know that I can help both myself and others in a real and lasting way.
Reiki is a word derived from the Japanese language and is very popular in Japan. The word Reiki is divided and both the words mean, god's power and energy which runs life. The founder of this art was called Makao Usui. He had many disciples who learned from him and then passed on the art form to their disciples. The whole point is the master who teaches the art form to his pupils is very important and needs to be respected. The master will mould his pupils in learning this therapy method and he is one who will teach all the techniques and symbols.
When a person wishes to become a master and teach pupils the therapy method, he has to pass through rigorous levels of learning the art himself. He has to prove that he is the best in the methods and only then will he be able to qualify for the master level certification. He has to devote a lot of time for practice and also learning the new methods and symbols. The master degree or the level where a person can become a master is difficult and hence all lower levels should be conquered.
As a rule, it is difficult to resist the incredible magnetism of our mind's ideas; but there is at least one simple defence: anchor yourself in a state of great pleasure.Now, I know the meditation purists will object to this. They will say that you are being distracted by meaningless sensations; but the truth is you can actually use these sensations to help ground you in the present moment - the very thing even these critics will admit is the essence of meditation.How then can you anchor yourself in a pleasurable / blissful state?Connect to energy and then rest in the energetic sensations that arise.Since Reiki is all about energy, improving it means a greater connection to energy. This, in turn, means a greater ability to use this energy to BE in the present moment without being lured out of it by the mind.
It's hard to be sold on a bigger and better deal when we're already living the BIG DEAL.If we love where we are at present, why move?Get the Complete Reiki Picture,The classical Japanese Reiki system is highly structured.That is, each piece builds on the one before it.The five main building blocks of the system are:The Reiki attunements,Reiki meditations,Reiki precepts,Hands-on healing,Mantras and symbols,There is only one way to see how all of these pieces fit together, and that is to do Master Level. Until then, you are, to a certain extent, living in the 'Reiki dark'. This, admittedly, is a fine place to be; but understanding the 'whole' is illuminating.
The master knows very well how the energy flow has to be done and hence using symbols in the right fashion, it can be done.Learning for the master.The master has to learn to heal himself first and then move on to other people. All personal issues should be resolved by self therapy and then others can be treated.
