What Is Reiki ?

Reiki (pronounced Ray-kee) is Japanese for Universal Life Force or Spiritually-Guided Energy. Rei means Universal or all-knowing and all-encompasing. Ki means life-force energy and is the same as Chi in Chinese or Prana in Sanskrit.

Reiki is a complementary, alternative or spiritual therapy that has been used to help heal almost any dis-ease or imbalance that you can think of. The most common of these, being stress-related disorders, which make up at least 75% of America's visits to the hospital.

Reiki is totally non-invasive and the client is fully clothed during a session. Reiki can be done anywhere and at any time. Anyone can learn and practice Reiki successfully!

What is Meditation?
Meditation is a method for acquainting our mind with virtue. The more familiar our mind is with virtue, the calmer and more peaceful it becomes. When our mind is peaceful we are free from worries and mental discomfort, and we experience true happiness.
If we train our mind to become peaceful we will be happy all the time, even in the most adverse conditions. But if our mind is not peaceful, even if we have the most pleasant external conditions we will not be happy. Therefore it is important to train our mind through meditation.
There are two types of meditation: analytical meditation and placement meditation. When we contemplate the meaning of a Dharma instruction that we have heard or read we are doing analytical meditation. By deeply contemplating the instruction, eventually we reach a conclusion or cause a specific virtuous state of mind to arise. This is the object of placement meditation. Having found our object through analytical meditation, we then concentrate on it single-pointedly for as long as possible to become deeply acquainted with it. This single-pointed concentration is placement meditation. Often, analytical meditation is called simply `contemplation', and placement meditation simply `meditation'. Placement meditation depends upon contemplation, and contemplation depends upon listening to or reading Dharma instructions.

Feng shui is :
Feng Shui (also known as "geomancy") is part of ancient Chinese philosophy and metaphysics and means wind and water, which are the two fundamental forms of life energy. Feng Shui studies life energy and tries to understand the movement of energy in our environment and how the design of buildings and interiors affects us in a subtle manner. Feng Shui uses positive 'chi' to improve an individual's good luck and success.
Everything that exists contains 'chi' (qi), the energy or life force. This 'chi' possesses two properties, yin (receptive) and yang (active)—they are opposites and cannot exist without the other. Within the 'chi', eight constituents compose the universe (the Lake, the Mountain, Fire, Water, Heaven, Thunder, Wind, and Earth). Each trigram, or combination of three yin/yang elements, represents a particular quality and pattern of energy. In turn, the proper arrangement of these energetic qualities would affect not only the 'chi' of the environment, but that of the individual within the environment as well. With feng shui, the goal is to bring both into harmony so as to foster prosperity, health, and well-being with the Wind (feng) dispersing the 'chi' throughout the universe and Water (shui).

Feng shui :
Feng shui is a technique for bringing balance to one's home, business and the land that surrounds them. arrangement of a home greatly influences the lives of all its occupants. The alignment of furniture, color schemes, and accessories create an environment that both relaxes and invigorates those who live there. Simply moving a few objects or repainting a room can have a significant impact.

Telepathy comes from the Greek words tele (distant) and pathe (occurrence or feeling). The term was first coined in 1882 by the French psychical researcher, Fredric W. H. Myers, a founder of the Society for Psychical Research (SPR). Descriptions of telepathy have been found in ancient writings and oral lore.

Basically, telepathy is the awareness of another person´s mental and emotional experience. This communication can include thoughts, ideas, feelings, sensations and mental images and may involve direct mind-to-mind communication. Telepathy is difficult to distinguish from clairvoyance, but there is a difference so tread carefully.

What is Telepathy?
The word telepathy came from the two Greek words “tele” and “apathe” where the first means distant or far and the second’s means feeling. Telepathy is thought to be a from of communications between minds, someone just thinks about something or about someone else and the other person receives this thought or idea.

By: Dr Motaleb Barazandeh, from Universal Academy of Parapsychology and Meta Reiki International Association

Following is the one exercise to learn Telepathy using colors, do the following,

1. Take an object in 7 different colours

2. sit with another person and be present in the moment and assume roles of sender and receiver

3. still your mind and do not think about any place, people etc

4. sender will think of 1 color in his mind and then send this color to the mind of other person that is receiver by saying the word begin

5. receiver tries to guess the name of the color that is in sender’s mind by connecting his minds with sender and he may recall the name of any color

6. If receiver is correct try to send the other color, and if he is incorrect try to send the same color until sender gets the correct color.

7. revise this exercise and increase the time duration with passage of time.

By: Dr Motaleb Barazandeh, from Universal Academy of Parapsychology and Meta Reiki International Association

Telepathy is a direct way of communication that is done by transferring thoughts from sender’s mind to the receivers’ mind without saying or writing something. The only contact is between two minds.

There are 3 types of Telepathy as:
• Physical telepathy
• Emotional telepathy
• Mental telepathy

By: Dr Motaleb Barazandeh, from Universal Academy of Parapsychology and Meta Reiki International Association

The simplest definition of telepathy can be stated as direct communication between minds.

There is several forms of telepathy :
The transmission of feeling , those feelings will be usually registered in the solar plexus. This kind of telepathy is very common among humans , animals and vegetables .
The transmission of emotions and images . This kind of telepathy is also common among humans. I had to do an exercise which was to note every coincidence that could indicate manifestation of telepathy in a single day I noted 6 coincidences or synchronicity phenomena as would have say the psychologist Carl Jung.
The transmission of words and phrases. This kind of telepathy is the most complex to achieve and require training.

10 Reasons To Learn Reiki

1. Reiki connects you to universal energy so you can heal yourself whenever you feel the need. You can balance your body, mind and spirit by spending some time each day devoted to self-healing.
2. If you are feeling that there is something missing in your life that you can’t quite pin point, chances are that it’s your spirituality. By learning Reiki you are re-connected to your higher self, which means you will become far more intuitive, enabling you to make better decisions and to feel far more ‘whole’.
3. Stress is recognised as a major contributor to so many illnesses in modern society. Reiki has an extremely calming effect, filling you with a sense of inner peace and serenity that will ensure that stress won’t rule your life. You will gain a sense of real self-purpose and inner clarity that may have eluded you previously.
4. Our lifestyles are incredibly busy and this takes a toll on our bodies as well as other areas of our life. Through continual self-healing at a physical level you can not only help to prevent illnesses occurring but you can use Reiki on actual physical injuries and problems from mild back pain to cancer. Reiki can help with any illness.
5. If you feel that your life lacks direction learning Reiki re-connects you with your true purpose in life and will leave you feeling far more focused about where you need to be heading and directing all your precious resources. Many people spend years feeling they are in the wrong job or wrong situation and Reiki opens your mind up to the things that you really need, perhaps not want but need. There is nothing quite so liberating.
6. Many people often feel that they are taking so much from life and yet giving so little back and are completely unsure of how to rectify this situation. If you take a Reiki course to practitioner level you are able to heal others as well as yourself. There is nothing quite like healing other people to make you appreciate your own situation and bring comfort to your life. There is nothing more rewarding than being able to share your gift of healing helping someone else who so desperately needs it and bringing happiness to someone else’s life.
7. Reiki has the potential to turn your whole life around for the better if you self heal every day and listen to your intuition. Your whole life becomes clearer and you really do realise what is important in life and what you can do without. Everything is put into perspective and you learn to appreciate so many things and really learn who are your friends and who are just using you.
8. Most people have emotional traumas in their life and what many do not realise is that the energy from these traumas is carried with you and has a negative effect on you, possibly for your whole life. Our traumas hold us back in life stalling self-development. By using Reiki on yourself you can remove the energy attached to those traumas so you will no longer feel any pain associated with the event. Once this has been achieved you are finally free to be yourself.
9. It is easy to get trapped in the cycle of old lifestyle patterns and issues, for example: following the same faddy diets that don’t work, making new years resolutions you know you will break every year, getting trapped by financial issues, working too hard, struggling in relationships. This can continue for your whole life. Reiki can change the way you deal with life, the way you deal with situations and relationships in a way that is much healthier for you. It might not happen in a conscious way but you will find that for instance someone who takes advantage of you normally will get a shock when you defend yourself and demand greater respect. You learn to love yourself more and also to love others but in a way that allows them to learn their lessons and never take you for granted.
10. The founder of Reiki Mikao Usui said that Reiki was the ‘art of inviting happiness’. This is very true. If you ask anyone if they are honestly really happy I doubt you will get a resounding yes from the majority. People often misconceive what real happiness is and associate it with wealth, material possessions or a successful career. Happiness is about so much more than that. Happiness comes from a profound understanding of the universe and knowing your place in the universe. If you choose to learn Reiki you will be set on the path to enlightenment. For some this is a short path, for others a much longer one but once you know you are on it you find what happiness is. Reiki is more than just a therapy it is the way of the universe.

An Introduction to Reiki

Reiki is a Complementary therapy treatment based around natural healing. The healer channels energy and passes it to the client. Reiki energy is regarded as life energy and can be very beneficial physically, emotionally and mentally for the client.

There are several effects that Reiki energy can have on a person:

• It creates a feeling of deep relaxation
• Toxins are removed from the body
• Energy blockages are removed
Reiki can be used to aid in the in the treatment of several ailments, such as:

Stress, depression, Pain, colds, flu, and conditions such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome amongst many other conditions.

It heals by cleansing the meridians of the body and balancing all charkas. Done regularly Reiki will maintain good health and well-being. It is also known to make people feel generally happier, calmer and less stressed in their everyday life.

The treatment consists of the client lying on a massage couch to receive the energy. A normal session can be anywhere between half an hour to an hour and a half. During this time the body goes into a deeply relaxed state, which, unfortunately is not often reached anymore, due to our busy lives. The energy is absorbed in to the body, and this can continue to work for the next few days, depending on how depleted the body is. Some people find that they fall off to sleep during their sessions, and some just enjoy the feeling of complete relaxation, peace and warmth.

During the treatment you may feel a tingling session, along with hot or cold areas. Some people feel nothing. Do not worry, it does not mean that the energy is not having an effect, it is just the way different people react to their individual sessions. After the treatment some people go though what is called a ‘healing crisis’. This is the body’s natural way of healing the problem areas after the energy has been received. During this time some people feel generally low, unwell or weepy but this will pass after a couple of days, and usually leaves them feeling better than ever.
