Reiki Usui: Healing Through Energy
Reiki Usui is a movement established by Dr. Mikao Usui, a Japanese teacher and a devout Buddhist. He accidentally discovered the technique when he was on a 21-day meditation exercise at Mt. Kurama. There are different variations of Reiki. Reiki Usui is the movement whose lineage can be traced to Usui Sensei, the name that
Dr. Mikao Usui was fondly called by his students.
The use of energy in healing is the main principle of Reiki. Based on the ancient healing techniques, energy can be classified either ascending or descending. In Reiki Usui, the type of energy used is the descending energy. Under this principle, the practitioner becomes one with that energy through the symbols that he is attuned to. Once that is achieved, healing occurs.
There are powerful symbols used exclusively in Reiki Usui. These symbols can summon the energy required to make healing, development, and evolution possible. Deeper understanding of Reiki can associate a person to be that energy. By being so, the energy becomes accessible at anytime, from anywhere. For the uninitiated, Reiki Usui is simply the process of healing. But for the Reiki master, it is an entirely new way of life.
The teachings and practices of Reiki Usui can force a practitioner to live according to the principles of Reiki and in harmony to the energy that is within him and around him.
Reiki Usui actually opens up a new path. It is an open road towards truth, enlightenment, and spiritual freedom. If it is applied in one's daily living, it becomes the key to becoming wiser, more likable, and successful.
Reiki energy is for everybody. In the same way, understanding Reiki Usui is open to everyone. It doesn't require any physical qualifications, mental capabilities, or emotional stability. Even children can learn Reiki and use its powers for their development.
The symbols Reiki Usui use are powerful enough to call upon the main energy source. However, these symbols are not in anyway the energy itself. It is the amount of concentration that the practitioner places on such symbols that creates power. This power can be directed towards another person, an animal, or even an inanimate object through the touch of hands. It can also be sent over the distance and over time. Such energy can be transformed and focused towards something, on a certain destination and with a certain purpose.
The role of these symbols in the Reiki Usui practice is monumental. However, it is possible to perform Reiki in its absence. Depending upon the expertise and proficiency level of the Master, any symbol can become powerful. It is but a matter of channeling the right energy needed to whatever it is that he desires to happen.
Reiki Usui is the path that connects a person to the Universal Life Energy. That energy is nothing less that the Supreme Being. Reiki is the vehicle that you can take to unite you with the Creator. This is why the experience is thoroughly different. When you're one with the strongest force, the possibilities are endless. The Three Degrees of Reiki Training
Reiki is the ancient art of healing through the use of energy. Reiki can be learned, practiced, and taught in different degrees. Generally, this movement is divided into three major categories, with each one in a higher level than the other.
The major divisions of Reiki training are simply referred to as first, second, and third degree Reiki levels.
First Degree Reiki
Reiki first degree is focused on teaching a student everything they have to know about the art of Reiki. Here, you will be taught what Reiki really means and what it can do for you. It is the time where masters will give their students an in-depth description about the Reiki. This includes where it came from, how to give it, and the proper way of using it. After all the concepts are taught as well as the mental, emotional, and physical natures of the student are thoroughly prepared, hands-on practice will take place.
Upon completion of the first degree Reiki training, a student will know how to use the Reiki energy for self-healing. This same energy can also be channeled to help other people, more specifically their friends and family. First degree Reiki can also stimulate personal and spiritual growth in a person.
This level is for people who simply want to discover what Reiki is. It is also for those who would like to learn how to heal themselves and others. After this level, you will be able to elevate your mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical state. It can effectively prevent illness in your family, as well as allowing you to heal through massage and physiotherapy.
Second Degree Reiki
Second degree Reiki leads you to the deeper understanding of the ancient method of Reiki healing. Here, you won't just be able to heal diseases right on. You will be able to transcend time and space with your healing powers as well. You will also be introduced to the sacred symbols of Reiki at this level, which you can use to develop your awareness of self, healing others, and helping them with their lives as much as you improve yours.
During the second level of Reiki training, the flow of Reiki energy within you intensifies. You can further enhance your abilities through the use of the great Reiki symbols bestowed upon you. Distance healing or planetary healing becomes possible. As such, you can possibly heal another person even if they are ten thousand miles away from you. Furthermore, you will be able to improve your self-healing abilities as well as your spiritual and personal growth. You may be qualified to practice Reiki on others after the second degree of Reiki training.
Third Degree Reiki
The third degree of Reiki training is sometimes divided into two subgroups. The first group is the training where you become a Reiki master capable of teaching Reiki students. The second group is focused on merely improving yourself, with no training to be a teacher.
Third degree Reiki is only for the people who wish to further develop themselves into a Reiki Master. Here, they will have access to all the Reiki Master symbols and are allowed to perform attunement process on others. More complex healing cycles will be taught at this level, with the aim of expanding your Reiki influence.
The end goal of this last level of training is to make you a Reiki Master who can initiate, teach, and train others into the art of Reiki.
