There are lot of myths and truths about the history of Reiki healing. Some say, that Reiki has its roots in Tibet, Zen Buddhism, Qi gong, Traditional Chinese medicine and that the symbols – Shirushi -  and the sounds of them, comes from Japanese martial arts.

The most common story about Reiki says that Dr Mikao Usui (Japan) in his pilgrimage to the mountain Kurama 1914, discovered a way of channelling energy. He created the Usui system of Natural Healing (Usui Shiki Ryoho), known as "Rei Ki", which can be translated as Universal life force energy.

The function of this way of healing is built on the knowledge of Ki/Chi - life force - and the meridian system of our bodies in Chinese medicine. Put the channelling of universal life energy, together with the Chi-flow in you body and you have Reiki healing.
By asking for Reiki, thinking (and singing) of the symbols and putting your hands, by a curtain system on the body (around the head, shoulders, stomach, legs, and feet) and letting the flow begin, you can give other people a great feeling of harmony and wellbeing

Some people say, you shouldn’t mix two traditions… but if you have knowledge in several traditions, who can say that you DO NOT mix, when you are the instrument of the spirit world - guided by spirits… who take its shape as teachers, angels, animals, plants and colours… and who knows if there where any particular differences in the beginning?

Do you have any opinion?
To mix or not to mix?

Here is my story of my mix:

 One of my experiences of Reiki Distance Healing

I had an agreement with a young woman (a relative of mine), about sending distance Reiki to her, when it was time for child delivery. She called me at night and told me to begin. She was in the car, 5 minutes away from the hospital and in big pain. I started to send Reiki and worked on her teddy bear. I sat there in the dark night and worked for her, but in the early morning I drowsed. As I hadn’t finished the activating, it was still sending, but in a passive way. I also did some work for her at the morning, but I didn’t feel as it was, in the right moment.

There were a lot of phone calls, that forenoon – people wondered where they were, as they didn’t answer the phone - but suddenly at noon, I felt a big stress coming and knew it was time. I sat down with her teddy bear and re-activated the Reiki. For my inner sight, I saw a labour room, where she was lying on a hospital bunk. The room was filled with white light spirits – you can call them angels if you want to – and there was a big calmness, in the painful work, as childbirth is.
The light spirits were singing and calming. One caught the child’s father, as he nearly was fainting and held him up and then an animal was flying through the light curtain. I presumed it was a power animal. Maybe it was the power animal of the child?

Suddenly there was stillness… no sound, no moves and the vision was gone.
I felt a big calmness and happiness and I understood that everything had gone well and finished the distance Reiki. The clock was 1:15 pm and I was ready for lunch.

I talked to the new parents in the evening, and they told me, that they had entered the delivery room at 12 o’clock and that the baby was born just before 13:30 p.m. The father had had one attack of faintness, all right, and the mother said she had felt my presence.

It was a huge experience for me, to take part and when I got the vision verified, by the history of the actually happenings, I felt more confident. I now, have more faith, to both my own work and the presence of the Power

This story includes both the usual way of using Distance Reiki, and my own tendency to telepathic contact/psychic ability and shaman journeys. The technique of Reiki, is not automatically showing telepathic visions.

Jeg tror ikke det er noen forskjell - samme kilde - samme kraft - dine ord & handlinger - eller mine - resultatet taler for seg - uansett.
Ikke til å komme fra - vi er en kanal - et instrument for åndeverden - vi sitter på mye forskjellig kunnskap etterhvert - har mange erfaringer fra mange forskjellige åndelige tradisjoner. Som "gammel pinsemenighet", Jesusfrelst Hallelujainstrument kan jeg jo fortelle at jeg "brukte" menigheten, mine kunnskaper, tungetale (urspråk?) og håndpåleggelse og alt som hører med da jeg først begynte å lukte på sjamanismen..
Erfaringen min er at jeg ble mer og mer guidet - mot sjamanismen - og etterhvert - da jeg ble sta & krevde konkret bevis for at det jeg gjorde var riktig da var jeg tilstede på et "møte" og tilfeldighetene førte en fremmed mann til talerstolen - som prekte direkte til meg om at jeg måtte komme meg ut derifra - komme meg videre

Samme energi - kraft - kristusenergi bare forskjellig termenologi - forskjellig språk.
Vi snakker jo mange språk... og jeg blander noengang engelske ord i det norske språket 

 


Hexedoktor'n

Hva sier din intuisjon deg?   

Reiki var min vei inn i healing energien, jeg vil si å åpne opp for balanse overføring av energi som det har kommet kanalisert til meg,
disse kursene med symboler å overføring av energi som de fleste merker strømmen av etter 2 dager er kraft fulde energier som øverføres fra skal vi si katalisatoren - Masteren.
sånn jeg ser det er det som er viktigst når det gjelder kurs er å åpne opp på den måten som blir vist deg å senere ta ibruk de mere intuitive energien som kommer kanalisert til deg. 
 for min del bled det trommen som kalte på meg å sjamanistiske metoder som kom intuitivt til meg, har et ønske med tiden å gå på kurs eller være med der sjamanistiske metoder blir brukt,forde indianeren i meg gir meg mye glede sånn det er for meg er det stammens energi som er med meg fellesenergien av stammen.
reiki energien er med meg og englene, Andromeda galaxen mm de kommer de som det er behov for der å da.
mix or not to mix ikke vet jeg hva som er riktig for deg, men ingen av energiene har forlatt meg forde om jeg er litt alsidig ingem a4 den dagen man tror man har finni sannheten stopper utviklingen sånn jeg ser det hilsen en som er ydmyk for kraften -  enheten - altet         wub: klem bast 
 

Her er et boktips og en side fra en annen som forbinder sjamanisme og Reiki i sin praksis:

Det finnes jo forskjellige typer og skoler innen Reiki. I Japan er Reiki blitt gjenoppdaget på åttitallet (det virker som om det skjedde via en vestlig omvei), og Gendai Reiki er et forsøk på å reintegrere Reiki med de gamle japanske opprinnelse til denne tradisjonen. En bekjent av meg studerer Gendai Reiki i Danmark.

En annen bekjent, som er Reiki master, følte at trommereiser og alle typer visualisering var en utfordring da hun lærte seg sjamanistiske metoder. Hun opplevde en sterk interferens fordi hun var så vant til å forholde seg til kinestetisk healing uten billedspråk. 

Det finnes mange måter å utforme et billedspråk på. Også energifornemmelser i form av farger, strømninger, lys, linjer og andre geometriske former er et billedlig språk som kan fortelle mye, opplever jeg, men det kan mindre lett gjengis gjennom det konvensjonelle språk, mens det kan tegnes og males eller fremstilles grafisk.

Her noe om Reikis historie.

The clearest and most authentic understanding we have been able to discover is that Dr. Usui originated the system of healing he taught and practiced based on his mystical experience on Mt. Kurama and by making use of his studies in many different areas of knowledge. It has no connection to Buddhism, nor is it connected to Tibetan Buddhism or Tibetan shamanism or any other religion.

Denne neutraliteten kan jo også ses på som en åpenhet ... i forhold til personlige sammenhenger den enkelte kan skape.

A friend of mine got reiki heling from a reiki healer and got posessed with alot of bad energies. He talked to anoher healer who insisted that this should not happen, he said that you should feel good and calm after reiki healing.

Can a reiki healer send bad energies to a person being healed?

Peace and love.

Ps. I do not heal with the use of reiki but know many reiki healers.

I agree with you Bast.
Healing can be painfull before one accept what has to be done in order to be healed. I myself went through this when I healed myself. I had to change my entire lifestyle. There were of course a lot of pain in doing this. I was crying for long perods until there were no tears left.

I do also believe that there has to be good energy between the healer and the soul that is being healed. Maybe this was not the case in the story I told you about in the comment above.

Peace and love to you Bast.

Ps. Keep on healing, I can feel your energy in your words. Maybee you are doing distant Reiki healing on me right now through your words.
