Enthusiasts of the Reiki argue that the art of Reiki gives the opportunity to enjoy the special vital energy that is around and permeates every living being, in order to heal the body and soul. But not everyone shares this view. What is Reiki really - we will try to understand.
Data
The system of reiki was created in the end of the XIX century in Japan by the Buddhist Mikao Usui, who practiced the Japanese version of Qigong - kiko. This more ancient system of healing and self-development offered to use its own energy resources to treat other people. But Mikao Usui wanted to find a way to help patients without affecting their own resources. At the age of 57, he found him during a long meditation.
In Russia, Reiki came from America in the 1930s through Mrs. Takato, an American of Japanese descent. In China and Japan, even before the Reiki, there have always been many methods of energy treatment, the followers of this system point to its fundamental difference from others. It does not need to be directed by effort of will. It is not necessary to concentrate attention and energy resources of the organism on the task in view. The energy source of Reiki is a certain Absolute Positive supreme Reason or Power. Therefore, the masters of the Reiki argue that the energy emanating from it is also absolutely positive and can not do any harm. This energy itself "knows" how much, in what form and quantity it is needed by a given person for a specific purpose. Now there are many varieties of this system. Our view is that Reiki sessions set themselves a more global goal, rather than getting rid of only physical illness. Therefore, even if it was not possible to recover physically, the very life of the patient can change to a more favorable side.
It is believed that anyone can become a Reiki master. This does not require any sustained effort, as in other systems. Enough initiation: the master teacher transmits the student the ability to become a channel-conductor of the Higher Force through a special ritual. Some adherents of reiki also practice respiratory and meditative techniques, but they are not as important as initiation.
Normal Session
During the Reiki session, you lie down on the massage table, and the master puts his hands alternately on different areas of your head, neck and torso. Patients are usually dressed, except when the reiki is combined with a massage. Energy is transmitted to the patient through the hands of the healer: he touches them either to the body of the patient or to his imaginary body, so sessions can be conducted at a distance. You can relax and sink into your thoughts.
Despite the fact that the reiki is still little understood, several studies have revealed that it is effective in relieving pain, anxiety, stress and chronic fatigue. After the session, the heart rhythm becomes less frequent, the blood pressure decreases and the secretion of substances stimulating immunity increases.
Reiki is effective
It is best to try reiki in conditions where the cause of failure, disorder or illness is something insulating, blocking, causing stress. Reiki will "wash away" the barrier, relax the body with: spasms, internal tension, insomnia, anxiety.
Reiki is useless
Probably, reiki will prove to be ineffective in conditions, when on the contrary it is necessary to stimulate the body. Reiki will only aggravate the condition, prevent the body from mobilizing during: bleeding (including menstruation), asthenia, a small interval between the upper and lower indices of pressure, acute infections, especially viral, when the body must be protected from external influences, that is, erect barriers.
All the will of God
Once, the perfect source of good knows better than ourselves what is good for us and what does not, then it's impossible to assess the action of the Reiki in principle! For example, one man turned to the master of Reiki with a complaint of pain in the knee. After a series of sessions, the pain did not stop, but the client was very interested in the principles of spiritual practices and personality development. He began reading books, attending courses, his lifestyle changed for the better ... But! The pain in the knee did not pass, although the Reiki sessions continued. What conclusion did the master make? The knee problem was needed by this man to change his life. The logic of "higher meaning" is incomprehensible, and there is no room for our logic (it helps - it does not help).
Safety rules when accessing slats
Determine for yourself - are you ready to believe in that higher authority, which is addressed by the Reiki followers. Only if such a belief is consistent with your views and beliefs, proceed with the choice of the master.
Get better acquainted with the master - you will have to trust him with your energy, allow you to "connect" you to a certain source. Trust the master, to whom you feel sympathy, feel psychologically compatible.
The most important thing - reserve the right to a critical look, do not lose the sobriety of thought, so that the fanatical belief in the higher good does not take you too far from the real world.
