Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese word and it means Universal life force energy.This energy is omni present. Our body is made up of five elements – Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether and it is active because of this energy. The food that we eat is transmuted into energy and then only the body works. We can survive without food but we can’t survive without the energy. The breath that we inhale also carries PRANA (energy) with it. If the energy level of the body comes down then there is stress, pain, disease or even death. Similarly the whole Universe is made of energy and because of this energy the planets and vegetation survive. All the non-living things also contain energy as they too are made of the five elements. After death of an individual the body takes another form of energy depending upon the Karma performed in the previous life.

Although this energy in the nature is in abundance, the human mind doesn’t know how to tap and use it in day to day life. Today’s man is living in a fast pace of life. He gets into the vicious cycle of stress, strain, pain and disease.

We have seen in certain pictures of GODS and GURUS giving us blessings, certain rays, colors or energy coming out of their palms. The same energy comes out of our palms too. We should be open to receive this grace of the Universe.

A small child is full of energy hence his touch is always very soothing and energising. Asone grows, one wastes this energy in doing unproductive things without knowing how to get it back from the Universe.
Reiki is a simple science by which we are attuned to receive the Godly grace in the form of energy from the Universe. A master/teacher attunes us into this process. By reading a book or only knowing about it one can’t get the energy from the Universe. A person of any age, color, cast, creed or religion can get himself attuned. A person can easily learn and practice it. One doesn’t have to change the food habits, patterns of life or any thought process to practice it. The outlets of the energy are the two palms and one just has to touch oneself on various parts of one’s own body to be able to heal oneself. By doing this alone one can channelise energy into one’s own body or that of someone else if he or she needs to be healed. The person starts feeling better with each passing day and he starts experiencing peace and relaxation. Reiki can be practiced at any time of the day. By regular practice one starts understanding oneself and more about Reiki. Once a person feels good he can make others also feel good by channelising energy to them In fact, it is a form of DHYAN which everybody should perform everyday.
