Basics on use of hands

Image
Open the palm of the hand naturally and put the fingers together tightly. The thumb can be a little apart. Energy will scatter when the fingers are open. It is effective to open the fingers apart widely only when you intent to send gentle energy. Do not press the hand on a receiver but put is as light as a feather. I usually shaking both my hands before doing healing works, because my hands though feel have no tensions usually quite stiff. So, shaking the hands help to relax both hands more. In addition, feather like touch is quite tricky, it is often you already feel touching the patient lightly, but the patients still feel not light enough. Just almost touch the patient’s body; you will get the feather like touch.:) 1. Both hands technique It is commonly known to receive with the left hand and send with the right hand. It is not necessary to choose hands in Reiki –ho. Make full use of both hands. The whole body gets charged with Reiki from the point where the hand is put on. (Though ...

The future of Reiki-ho

It is evident, a Reiki practitioner in modern world receive attunement and teaching only in one day or two day seminar. In fact, they can get attunement by subscribing to free attunement services on the internet. One day, they will realize that what they get is not enough, something is missing. Technically Reiki-ho can be transferred to other person through a simple process called attunement. There are no differences among receiving attunement directly from a master or through distant attunements. But, distant attunement lack of emotional and psychological closeness with the master/teacher, which are necessary for making the student have better understanding about the lesson emotionally. Furthermore, sensei Hiroshi Doi predicts that a lot of people will realize that attunement only the first step to become a real healer, the true healer develops its ability through continuous practice and self development. The number regular of gatherings will replace incomplete seminars. As a student ...

A combination of traditional and western Reiki

Doi sensei wrote, When I found out that I could not learn more than from Ms. Mitsui, I started seriously considering visiting the United States. In the meantime, I gathered as much information as possible for “the possibility of existence of Usui-sensei’s pupils in Japan”. In result I found out that Ms. Kimiko Koyama ran Usui Reiki Ryoho Society which was for members, and inherited this tradition since the establishment as the sixth president. I lost no time becoming a member of the society through someone and learned from Ms. Koyama. I was amazed how different it could be from the western style Reiki of Ms. Mitsui yet coming from the same root. While practiced Reiki-ho, I learned from Ms. Mitsui and Ms. Koyama, I came across my third teacher. You may have heard about Alpan who learned from Bagwan-sensei in India and proposes Neo Reiki in Tokyo which is a unity of eastern and the western Reiki. My third teacher is Manaso who learned from Bagwan-sensei together with Alpan and teaches N...

A whole new world

Its been a while i starting this blog, i thought i can have so many friends who share the same interest with me, which is REIKI. Well, there are so many diseases out there and the cost of medicine is raising up. Considering this, how come you don't feel gratitude about learning REIKI. So, the secret of Reiki is actually Gratitude, but Reiki practitioner today lack of gratitude to sensei Usui work. They create their own technique but never mention or saying that they owe to sensei Usui work. I also notice that modern Reiki practitioners lack of philosophical background, when confronted with any religious accusations, they can't defense themselves. As a Gendai Reiki practitioner, i share the same concern with sensei Hiroshi Doi, who see that modern Reiki practioners need to know its historical background. This will protect them from philosophical misunderstanding and strengthening our trust to this Reiki technique. I begin discussing and mentioning some of sensei Hiroshi Doi tea...

How sensei Hiroshi Doi learn Reiki

Image
Doi sensei wrote, I was one of the first people who received attunement from Ms. Mitsui. I have been interested in the spiritual world and the universal energy and went through Basharl, Shirley Mac Laine and Sai Baba, and I found myself absorbed in healing techniques. From my memory, I can list over 30 techniques I learned such as Nishino Breathing technique, Shinmeikan Healing technique, SAS Shin Qui Gon, Genkyoku Qui Gon, Crystal Healing technique, Kihodo Healing technique, Hypnotic Qui Gon technique, Osteopathy, Energy Balancing technique, Astral Healing Technique, SMS Silva Method, Natural Vibration technique, Seiki-ho, Doki-ho, Balance Therapy, Multi dimension Body Work and so on. At the time I met Ms. Mitsui I was searching for my own healing technique by uniting each techniques I had learned. Although I was a skeptic before the seminar, I realized some changes after taking , such as feeling powerful, becoming healthy, tending to think positively and also the things, an idea ...

Reiki Back To Japan

While even the name of Reiki was not known well until recently in Japan, it spread quickly along with the New Age Movement, since the early 1980s in the western world. In the late 1980s it came back to Japan as a new healing technique. A book called “The Reiki Factor” by Dr. Barbara Ray was published in the United States which defined “Reiki is science and a technique of using the light of source of every existence(Life Energy)”. A New York based journalist, Ms. Mieko Mitsui, translated the book into Japanese (title”Reiki Ryoho”) and introduced Reiki to Japan. When Ms. Mitsui gave the seminars as the first Japanese authorized Reiki teacher all over the country, many people participated and it became like a boom. I consider the role Ms. Mitsui performed at this time in Japan very valuable for Reiki recognition. The Reiki seminar with big merits by once attunement became escalated involving people who were half-in-doubt, as the merits were attractive such as “no need of strict discipline...

Reiki go international

There was a woman named Hawayo Takata (1900 – 1980) who had recovered from sickness miraculously by Reiki Ryoho at Hayashi sensei’s clinic. She was a second generatain American of Japanese descent born in Hawaii and in 1935 she came back to Japan as a widow with her two little daughters after she was diagnosed that her days were numbered with an incurable disease. She went to Hayashi-sensei’s clinic through her doctor to receive the treatment and she gained health after two months and completely recovered after eight months. She was deeply impressed with it and worked at the clinic for a year afterwards as Hayashi-sensei’s pupil before she went back to Hawaii with her daughters. She received Shinpi-den when Hayashi-sensesi visited Hawaii in 1938 and started her Reiki clinic. She concentrated mostly on treatment until few years before her death at the age of eighty , whe she started attunement. For those few years she trained 22 teachers. These 22 masters(teachers) trained by Takata-sen...

Followers of Reiki in Japan

Image
Doi sensei wrote At this time Usui-sensei was renowned all over the country and admired as “the pioneer of restarting Hands-on healing” from other generations. The number of people saved by this Reiki power is said to have been several hundred thousand or over a million. It is on record that there are more than two thousand people who obtained Reiki Ryoho from Usui-sensei Very few of those were allowed to learn all three steps of Sho-den(the entrance, Reiki 1), Okuden(the deep inside, Reiki 2), Shinpi-den(the mystery, Reiki 3 and master degree). At present only three of those have been found who are Juzaburo Ushida, Rear Admiral, Kan’ichi Taketomi, Rear Admiral, Chujiro Hayashi, Captain. The two admirals took a leading part for spreading Reiki Ryoho inside the marine. Mr. Chujiro Hayashi(1879 – 1940) received the last secret of Reiki Ryoho and became an expert in 1925 after his retirement, and he worked actively at a Reiki Ryoho clinic he opened in Shinano-machi, Tokyo, following Usui-...

His pursuit in life and awakening at Mt. Kurama

Image
Usui-sensei studied under adversity and broadened his view by going to the western countries and China several times. As a result he was called a person of free will, and experienced a variety of occupations such as public servant, office worker, industrialist, reporter, politician’s secretary, missionary, supervisor of convicts and so on. As he faced both sides of life and society through his experiences and continued his study of life, he started to search for “the greatest purpose of life”. As a result of his devotion to his studies he came to the conclusion that “the ultimate purpose of life is to accept your fate and live in peace”. It means that “ Know your fate and accepted it and maintain the peace of mind and not to worry”. Fate is indicated as destiny you cannot control. In other words, “though it is necessary to try as you are, leave the rest in the hands of Providence and obtain the peace of mind”. This is what is considered as Usui-sensei’s first spiritual awakening. Spir...

Epitaph of Sensei Mikao Usui (Final update)

Image
By Hiroshi Doi As the story of the founder, Usui-sensei himself, is passed on as semi-legendary, it is not known much in detail. Especially when Reiki-ho went overseas, many stories were created while spreading from its base of the United States. The trustworthy record is the epitaph of “Usui sensei” in Bodhi temple(Tokyo). This was built in February in 1927, the following year after his death, by some of his over 2000 pupils. The following is its interpretation into modern days by myself. What you can naturally realize through cultivation and training is called “VIRTUE” and it is called “MERIT” to spread a method of leadership and relief and practice it. It is people of many merits and a good deal of virtue that can be eventually called a great founder. People who started a new learning and founded a fres sect among sages, philosophers, geniuses etc. named from ancient times, were all those as mentioned above. We can say that Usui-sensei is also one of those people. He started newly a...

Forgotten Usui sensei history

Image
As Hiroshi Doi sensei confused with so many stories about the history of Reiki-ho, suddenly he met with someone who introduced him with a secret society in Japan. This society maintains the original teachings of Usui sensei. This secret society maintain their tradition hardly, they do not easily give teachings to someone. Only those who are invited by the current members may receive the teachings. They will remain silence to general public forever to maintain the purity of the teachings. However, Reiki-ho is already spreading everywhere around the world, and its purity is getting less and less. The society feels deeply concern and decided not to keep the teachings from general public anymore. To teach general public about the original Reiki-ho, they invited sensei Hiroshi Doi to join their circle. From the circle Doi sensei able to learn a lot about secret techniques of Reiki Ryoho. From this society also, Doi sensei managed to visit Usui sensei tomb. Surround with Reiki energy and mag...
