 Reiki San Antonio The Five Reiki Principals by Carolyn Maloney Copyright Jan 2004,
For new Reiki People the first thing you do is; You begin to take charge of your own healing, by first learning to quiet your mind. You need to know your sacred space before you work on anyone else and the best way to do this is by: LETTING GO!
Do the Japanese Gassho meditation that you learned in the level one class to bring yourself into a state of there is only this moment in this time or Just for this moment, Just for Today as in the Reiki Principals. Reading the principals and memorizing the words brings the thoughts into a sound and form also called an affirmation for the mind to complete intent of the thought, feeling, and form processing of the mind.
KYO DAKE WA - Just for Today
Okora Na - I choose to let go of anger,
Sinpai Suna - I will release worry.
Kansha Shite - I will give thanks for my many blessings
Gyo Hageme - I will do my work honestly
Hito Ni Shinsetsu Ni - I will be kind to my neighbor and every living thing
This is a powerful and peaceful way of relaxing. To realize that there is only this moment. There is no past, it has already slipped by and you are unable to change it. There is no future, your not worrying about getting older or about a speech being planned, it hasn t happened yet. In Japanese it can be translated better by saying Just in this Breath.
There is just this moment and in this moment all the future moments are being created and are not here yet. In just this moment, there is no need to be afraid. There is no reason to be angry with anyone else, because only you are in this moment. There is no fear of not being loved, because you are honoring yourself, just in this moment. You can totally release all judgments regarding yourself and therefore you are able to release the judgments on others.
Just in this moment, you can be kind to yourself and therefore kind to all others. Doing our work honestly and being kind to every living thing is giving. In giving, you have traveled beyond your own healing to the realm of compassion for others. Some people are uncomfortable with giving anything to anyone, however the universal law states that what you give you receive. Your giving and kindness will be returned. What has also been noticed through the ages is that any negativity or incorrect action toward another person will return to you as well.
After studying a form of awakening like Reiki, you become more aware of your influence and the influences of life. Because there is a greater understanding in the love or fear you possess, the Dharma and Karma intensifies. Especially when you become aware of this moment and this time when you are setting your mind, attitude and cognition for the next minute.
Tune into your own energy and increase your positive side becoming harmonious. Breathing into your energy and increasing the chi in your body, is considered the way of protection by the Chinese and is part of the Medical Qigong ways. Go back to Just in this Moment and recover yourself and your energy. Clear and Cleanse all those elements around you that are not in your best and highest good.
To balance within, concentrate on centering yourself physically with the form that has been identified as the Reiji Ho and Gassho meditation and is used in many styles of the growing Reiki world. Then let go of personal business releasing it through expression, in words either verbally or in writing. This helps to let your personal agenda go and to not be influenced or confused with the emotions of the client. When doing treatments, I have often found that the centering and remembering the Reiki Ideas as an affirmation or mantra will help focus your intent.
Many times a person you are doing reiki has just the same sort of emotional situation that has appeared in your own life. The universe and the energy of your spirit must have sent them to you. Only when you have experienced a situation can you be totally aware of what another person is going through mentally or emotionally. Know that in this situation you will be learning more on how to handle your own problems. But at the same time, don t get lost in the client s experience. Sort and clean your mind, so that you know who you are and where you have been.
It is interesting to note that anger or judgments that you have are reflections or projections of your own anger or frustration with yourself. The same thing happens with your client. If the person is judgmental about someone they don t really know, just listen and realize in talking to you about it you find out who they really are. Helping them clear and cleanse the mind, body and spirit is helping you do the same.
