Energy that is released from the hands with reiki



Rei ki

But what is reiki? The word reiki consists of two phonograms: rei and ki .

Rei represents the inexplicable, the cause and the effect behind the creation, a vibrational frequency that is imagined antecedent and causative of life itself. We could say that it is the divine, the original mystery. Instead ki ( qi in Chinese version) constitutes the driving force that keeps alive, unites and assembles all creation. It is the energy that inhabits the person and pervades the cosmos.

Let's start with a true story, that of a Japanese child born of parents devoted to Tendai Buddhism and already at the age of twelve he became passionate about martial arts. We are in the second half of the nineteenth century and the child is Mikao Usui, creator of the technique known as reiki .

Hawayo Takata is the one who had the inestimable merit of having made reiki known in the West. They say that when at a conference they asked her what reiki really was, she put her hands on a person and said "reiki on" and then, raising them, said "reiki off!".

Reiki against depression

Today reiki is a treatment that is used especially in cases of depression, a mood disorder that alters the great regulation systems of the human body, generates hormonal, neurovegetative, digestive and motor imbalances, and weakens the immune system. It is a disorder that consumes inner energy and returns nothing back. Reiki alone does not solve the disorder, but, together with psychological support, a review of eating habits and meditation, helps the subject find the strength to react, taking the first steps to return to life.

The practice of the 5 principles of reiki

Master Usui prescribed that every day reiki practitioners would put themselves in the gassho position, a typical Japanese hand position that is obtained by joining the palms and fingers in the form of prayer, and at the beginning and at the end of each day they mentally repeat following principles:

1. Don't get angry

2. Don't worry

3. Be grateful

4. Work hard to improve yourself

5. Be kind to others
