Reiki 

- Mrs Manasi Karmakar, Grand Master-Reiki 

Introduction:

The word Reiki comes from two Japanese words-Rei and Ki. Rei means universal& Ki means Life force. So  Reiki can be a spiritually guided universal life forceenergy. It is thought to have originated as a Tibetan Buddhist practice that was re-discovered in the late 1800's by Dr. Mikao Usui, a Japanese Buddhist. It is a verysimple yet powerful technique that can be easily learned by anyone.

What is Reiki?

Thus Reiki is a powerful natural system that unlocks the inner flow of vital energyand is an individual experience. It restores and balances natural energy andprevents disorders, maintaining positive wellness and helping the healing process.Reiki is a powerful tool for personal development and spiritual enlightenment and isspiritually guided. This is a completely self-contained natural healing system and atranscendental energy. It works with physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels.

What Reiki Is Not

i) Reiki is not a religion or cult. It is not a dogma or specific doctrine of beliefs.ii) Reiki is not a form of mind control or hypnosis and not a psychic healing orpsychic surgery.iii) Reiki is not imagination or wishful thinking and cannot be taught by just anyone.

How Reiki Works ( After Reiki Attunements):

The life force is responsive to thoughts and feelings. It becomes disrupted when weaccept, either consciously or unconsciously, negative thoughts or feeling aboutourselves. These negative thoughts and feelings attach themselves to the energyfield and cause a disruption in the flow of life force. This diminishes the vital function

of the organs and cells of the physical body.

Reiki heals by flowing through the affected parts of the energy field and chargingthem with positive energy. It raises the vibratory level of the energy field in andaround the physical body where the negative thoughts and feelings are attached.This causes the negative energy to break apart and fall away. In so doing, Reikiclears, straightens and heals the energy pathways, thus allowing the life force to flowin a healthy and natural way

Negative Energy 

The prana exists naturally in the body and around the universe, it can becontaminated by negative thoughts, violence, suppressed anger, by drugs, alcohols

& other bad addictions. This diseased energy if accumulated in any part of the subtlebody due to various reasons, will eventually manifest as gross physical disease.Unless the diseased energy is removed or replaced, there is little hope of apermanent cure for the disease.

Action on the Subtle Body

The subtle energy of the body has its own form which penetrates the physical body,and extends beyond it in layers. In the subtle body are various energy centers orchakras, which allow various levels of energy to enter the body, and thus keep thebody in a balanced state. Sickness is thus caused by malfunctioning of the chakrasor by accumulating diseased prana in various parts of the subtle body, whichmanifests as disease in the gross body.

Reiki treatment brings in energy from the universe and channels it through the hands

of the practitioner to the patient. This clean energy restores the chakras to normalfunctioning, revives depleted areas of the subtle body and replaces diseased energywith fresh energy.

The Attunements

The attunements consist of invoking energy on the chakras and hands of a person.This action clears the channels on the subtle body and lets the energy to begin toflow on its natural course.The Reiki attunement connects the person with the universal healing energy calledchi / ki/ prana or bioelectrical field. It will cure the person who has received theattunement, and channel through that person to cure another person simply by handcontact.
