Students have said to me that the practice of Gendai reiki ho and komyo Reiki Kai are simple yet the way in which each can heal mind, body and spirit as needed is amazing.  The universal vibrations of love nd harmony flow to where is needed in a profound way.

 

n Gendai Reiki-ho and Komyo Reiki Kai, created in Japan, healing begins or is enhanced where is best for the life receiving at that junction in time.  Each of these styles homors the original Usui Reiki Ryoho that flows without charts, symbols, or material objects. <learning Gendai Reiki-ho or Komyo Reiki Kai>

 

Students learn to feel harmonic and inharmonic vibrations because each life is different and heals in a different way.  As a practitioner or teacher moves his or her Handa over a body feeling vibrations it may seem like a sample thing, but the vibrations we call Reiki flow to the core of the cells in need of balance and harmony in mind, body and spirit.  The person through which Reiki flows must learn to feel the difference between inharmonic vibrations, harmonic vibrations and the vibrations we call Reiki.  Learning this allows the person to know where to place his or her hands and how long to hold them in that place. 

Reiki styles honoring the original Usui Reiki Ryoho only requires a practitioner or teacher who has had his or her pathway opened  to the piece of universal energy to which Mikao Usui connected, by a qualified teacher and has spent hours in classes and practicing exercises to feel harmonic and inharmonic vibrations and the piece of universal energy to which Usui Sensei connected.  This is why the empowerments/Reiju/attunements are only the beginning and more than one is required for each level. 

 

Healing is your birthright as each life is born with the right to live with the health and happiness that is right for him or her. There is nothing complicated, odd, or invasive about the healing that comes from the original spiritual healing art Mikao Usui created.  Usui Sensei wanted to share the fgift which he was blessed to receive during extensively deep meditation, and created a way to do this.  He only created three Reiki symbols to help some students learn, as I explain in classes.

It flows to the core of what is causing the symptoms and the healing then begins. © international 1999 <What is Reiki>

 

Take a moment and reflect on Napoleon Hill (author of think and grow rich), saying, “Disease germs cannot live and thrive in the bloodstream of one whose mind is always positive”.  Gendai Reiki-ho and Komyo Reiki Kai focus on the positive, and healing naturally happens in a safe, noninvasive gently way. 

 

I wrote the following for the April 2015 issue of a Women’s Magazine in Maine.  I studied in-person from Hiroshi Doi Sensei and Rev. Hyakuten Inamoto Sensei; each is a Japanese Shihan living in Japan with only two Shihans (master instructor/teacher of high standing) between himself and Mikao Usui the founder of Usui Reiki Ryoho. 

 “Nothing fishy, nothing odd, nothing difficult”– (English translation) © Hiroshi Doi 1999.  Doi Sensei (honorable teacher), who is Japanese and joined the Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai in 1993, was referring to the style of Usui Reiki Ryoho that he created to teach others the original spiritual practice Mikao Usui founded in 1922.

Usui Reiki Ryoho, is a simple yet profound method that uses a piece of the source of all energy. This piece, called Usui Reiki, is the vibrations of unconditional love and harmony.

This spiritual practice, or healing art, is neither a belief system nor a religion. It is a method of allowing universal love and harmony to flow to the core of all cells/atoms in need in mind, body, and spirit in all life forms. Rather than masking symptoms Usui Reiki flows to the core of what is causing the symptoms and helps those learning to align with universal harmony.

I use the term method because between 1921 and 1922 when Mikao Usui first created a way to open other people to the light (translated term referring to the piece of universal energy we call Usui Reiki) he called what was later called Usui Reiki Ryoho, my method to achieve personal perfect, or just my method.

Usui Reiki brings balance and surrounds with harmony; what is in-balance and surrounded with harmony heals in the way best for the receiver at that junction in time. No one can receive too much Usui Reiki or have it flow to the wrong place as no human can direct universal energy.  When a person tries to direct universal harmony inharmonic vibrations are created. 

As Usui Sensei said, there is an inner healer within each life form international © 1999.  Usui Reiki supports and enhances the healer within forming a restorative rhythm in mind, body and spirit—integrated healing at its best.  All styles honoring Usui Reiki Ryoho are complementary, respecting, and enhancing to professional medicine and other positive healing modalities.

The hardest thing about learning a style honoring Usui Reiki Ryoho is shutting down or benching the thinking mind.  In 1925 Usui Sensei saw that some students were having difficulty in feeling energy without something visual; he created three symbols for them to use as training wheels. Since Usui Reiki Ryoho crossed the oceans various teachers have created more than the original three symbols to help their students.

The easiest thing when learning a style honoring Usui Reiki Ryoho is trusting Usui Reiki will flow as needed as your hands are guided by Byosen and Hibiki (inharmonic and harmonic vibrations and universal vibrations of love and harmony). Once you know the differences between life force energy, Ki energy, and universal energy, and inharmonic and harmonic vibrations, there is no need to use any symbols or hand positions.

Tools used in other healing modalities are not needed in Usui Reiki Ryoho; the Practitioner or Shihan simply becomes the tuning fork. Once your pathway has been opened and you learn Usui Sensei’s spiritual practice, it is just you, the knowledge in your heart, and that beautiful piece of universal energy we call Usui Reiki flowing through you. Simple yet profound. © Roberta R. Barnes 2015
