REIKI
is an ancient form of healing believed to have spread through Tibet, China and
India a few thousand years ago.
It was rediscovered about one hundred and
twenty years ago by Dr.Mikao Usui, a Christian Theologian, who discovered
ancient manuscript texts, which contained the healing symbols, in a Tibetan
Monastery.
Dr.Usui had spent many years on a quest
for the secret of the ancient healing knowledge. He knew that he had
the
symbols but not yet the power of healing. He went to a mountain top in Japan
and underwent a 21 day period of purification, fasting and meditation at the
end of which he received enlightenment and the power of healing.
He came down
from the mountain and spent the rest of his life practising and teaching what
we now know as REIKI.
REIKI is not involved with religion or dogma although it
draws upon both Christianity and Buddhism for some of its teachings and its
ethical base.
People of all walks of life and spiritual backgrounds
appreciate its loving simplicity and benefit from it's healing power
