What is Rei Ki?
Reiki, in effect, is the application of divine source healing energy through the
placement of the practitioners hands over the recipients body. It is a form of
hands-on healing.
The word Reiki is a Kanji idiogram (above) that comprises two
words "Rei" and "Ki".
While many authors have interpreted the word "Rei"
differently, the interpretations all follow the theme of "God Consciousness" or
"Universal Life Force". To most aptly describe the word "Rei" and the concepts
behind this word, many Reiki accept that "Rei" stands for "Spirit Taking
Breath".
The word "Ki" refers to the energy that runs through everyone
and is necessary to exist. The word "Ki" is the same as the Chinese "Chi",
Hawaiian "Mana" or Sanskrit "Prana". Ki can only be fully understood by those
who experience it. Once you have experienced the flow of "Ki" through your body,
you will have a much more subjective understanding of what it is.
In
summary, receiving Reiki means that you receive the benefits of universal life
force energy from the divine source from whom all love, light and creation
emanate. To be Reiki means that you are open to and experienced at conducting
the love, light and energy of the universal consciousness.
In it's most basic form, the word chakra is Sanskrit for wheel or disk and signifies one of seven basic
energy centers in the body. Each of these centers correlates to major nerve
ganglia branching forth from the spinal column. In addition the chakras also
correlate to levels of consciousness, archetypal elements, developmental stages
of life, colors, sounds, body functions, and much, much more. This is just a basic
description and obviously would be explained more deeply in studies. Below is a brief
description of each chakra.

Chakra Seven:
Thought, Universal
identity, oriented to self-knowledge This is the
crown chakra that relates to consciousness as pure awareness. It is our
connection to the greater world beyond, to a timeless, spaceless place of
all-knowing. When developed, this chakra brings us knowledge, wisdom,
understanding, spiritual connection, and bliss.

Chakra Six:
Light,
Archetypal identity, oriented to self-reflection This chakra is
known as the brow chakra or third eye center. It is related to the act of
seeing, both physically and intuitively. As such it opens our psychic faculties
and our understanding of archetypal levels. When healthy it allows us to see
clearly, in effect, letting us "see the big picture."

Chakra Five:
Sound, Creative identity, oriented to
self-expression This is the
chakra located in the throat and is thus related to communication and
creativity. Here we experience the world symbolically through vibration, such as
the vibration of sound representing language.

Chakra Four:
Air, Social identity,
oriented to self-acceptance This chakra is called the heart chakra and is the
middle chakra in a system of seven. It is related to love and is the integrator
of opposites in the psyche: mind and body, male and female, persona and shadow,
ego and unity. A healthy fourth chakra allows us to love deeply, feel
compassion, have a deep sense of peace and centeredness.

Chakra Three:
Fire,
Ego identity, oriented to self-definition This chakra is
known as the power chakra, located in the solar plexus. It rules our personal
power, will, and autonomy, as well as our metabolism. When healthy, this chakra
brings us energy, effectiveness, spontaneity, and non-dominating power.

Chakra Two:
Water, Emotional
identity, oriented to self-gratification The second
chakra, located in the abdomen, lower back, and sexual organs, is related to the
element water, and to emotions and sexuality. It connects us to others through
feeling, desire, sensation, and movement. Ideally this chakra brings us fluidity
and grace, depth of feeling, sexual fulfillment, and the ability to accept
change.

Chakra One:
Earth, Physical identity, oriented to
self-preservation Located at
the base of the spine, this chakra forms our foundation. It represents the
element earth, and is therefore related to our survival instincts, and to our
sense of grounding and connection to our bodies and the physical plane. Ideally
this chakra brings us health, prosperity, security, and dynamic presence.

Today is the day I decide to drop old friends that treat me like crap. I don't need friends in my life that treat me that way. It is odd though. I find myself clinging on to a start of a new frienship. Now I'm just going to let it die. I don't want to invest time, money, energy, and love into a frienship when I know that I'll be treated the same way. I should have dumped the idiot when I found out they my 2 best friends slept together on MY COUCH. They both knew better. They deserve each other. That doesn't mean though that I'm going to loose my composer and yell. My New Years Eve date dumped me and when out alone. This was the same person that slept with my best friend. I sure know how to pick them. Enough is enough. Now I'm going to walk over their and get my keys and end it once and for all. The only good news that I have is that I chanted for 20 minutes the Hari om tat sat jai guru datta mantra and then sat in meditation. YAY. I did something for myself for a change. Yesterday I went out for a walk and ate supper and then went to Joseph. He is a tree that I named and gave Reiki attunements to. He is very healing. I went there last night to practice a grounding technique that I learned to no avail. While I was standing beside him light surrounded me from the tree. It was amazing. It's good to know that I have done something right and that even though my mistakes are many, I have done some things right and have made a lasting impression for the better on someone's life. I am angry and don't know how to let go of the pain that people have caused me. I ask God to take away the anger, but it only leaves for awhile. Anyone out there no how to release the pain and grief that people cause write me please. I'm working on it but am no good and now I'm getting bitter. I don't want my dreams to die but that is what is happening.
