6 Reasons To Become A Reiki Master

By Jack H. Sousa


Since I discovered Reiki over 12 years ago, my life has changed in so many ways, and Gandhi's statement resonates deeply with me.As you walk the Reiki path, and follow the principles of Reiki, you begin to have a much deeper understanding about the meaning and purpose of life.Just for Today is a key message in Reiki, and as you bring yourself to this present moment, you begin to realise that this is all there is! The past has already gone and the future has not been created.

You only have this moment, and it is what you do with this moment that determines your future.Your own life speaks volumes about you and about your thoughts and actions.Is your life happy, peaceful and filled with love and gratitude? Do you see the beauty in nature as you walk in the parks, sit on the beach, and watch the stars? Are you able to sit in silence and peace with yourself?

No, you should only do Master Level if you have a serious desire to learn skills that can change both the world - and YOU!Before I go onto some of these reasons, I'd like to add that learning to attune others to Reiki doesn't necessarily mean doing so in a professional environment.One of the most important things you can do with Reiki is attune your friends and family.Of these, you might pay particular attention to your children (or even nieces, nephews and the like), because just imagine how big an impact Reiki might make to their lives if they learnt it young, if it were second nature to heal with it, if, by the time they are your age, they had already been practising with it for 15, 20, 30 or more years!Reiki ought to be taught in schools; but until it is, you need to fill the gap - a gap made bigger by the age restrictions many Reiki associations place on course participants.Learn to Better Heal Yourself and Others,A lot of Master Level courses are divided up into two parts: A and B. Part A teachesskills to enhance personal practice, part B the teaching components.Whether the course is divided or not (I, personally, teach both parts together), Master Level should supply you with skills you can practise and develop for years to come. Skills that will profoundly shift the way you experience Reiki.

It was rare to notice someone who was totally in the moment and enjoying that moment and what it had to offer.By contrast what did the small children want... to explore, have fun, watch, experience and learn. They were totally in the moment and having the full experience of that moment. There was a moment of enlightenment when in the middle of the hot sunshine, the clouds opened and a tropical rain storm began.everyone ran for cover. It was the conditioned response.

Starting Your Reiki Training.The main point is that you can become a reiki master. The decision is which route you want to take.I took the home study option, simply because it fitted in with my life better and the cost was much less.And I have to say that I am very happy with the training I received. The course has excellent email support and friends who took the other option of the weekend class have told me that there is much more information in the distance learning package.And of course I have all of the talks in MP3 format so I can listen to them again if I feel there is something I missed the first time through.The main thing is this...If you want to learn reiki you should go ahead and get started. I found it to be a wonderful adventure and I now know that I can help both myself and others in a real and lasting way.

Reiki is a word derived from the Japanese language and is very popular in Japan. The word Reiki is divided and both the words mean, god's power and energy which runs life. The founder of this art was called Makao Usui. He had many disciples who learned from him and then passed on the art form to their disciples. The whole point is the master who teaches the art form to his pupils is very important and needs to be respected. The master will mould his pupils in learning this therapy method and he is one who will teach all the techniques and symbols.

When a person wishes to become a master and teach pupils the therapy method, he has to pass through rigorous levels of learning the art himself. He has to prove that he is the best in the methods and only then will he be able to qualify for the master level certification. He has to devote a lot of time for practice and also learning the new methods and symbols. The master degree or the level where a person can become a master is difficult and hence all lower levels should be conquered.

As a rule, it is difficult to resist the incredible magnetism of our mind's ideas; but there is at least one simple defence: anchor yourself in a state of great pleasure.Now, I know the meditation purists will object to this. They will say that you are being distracted by meaningless sensations; but the truth is you can actually use these sensations to help ground you in the present moment - the very thing even these critics will admit is the essence of meditation.How then can you anchor yourself in a pleasurable / blissful state?Connect to energy and then rest in the energetic sensations that arise.Since Reiki is all about energy, improving it means a greater connection to energy. This, in turn, means a greater ability to use this energy to BE in the present moment without being lured out of it by the mind.

It's hard to be sold on a bigger and better deal when we're already living the BIG DEAL.If we love where we are at present, why move?Get the Complete Reiki Picture,The classical Japanese Reiki system is highly structured.That is, each piece builds on the one before it.The five main building blocks of the system are:The Reiki attunements,Reiki meditations,Reiki precepts,Hands-on healing,Mantras and symbols,There is only one way to see how all of these pieces fit together, and that is to do Master Level. Until then, you are, to a certain extent, living in the 'Reiki dark'. This, admittedly, is a fine place to be; but understanding the 'whole' is illuminating.

The master knows very well how the energy flow has to be done and hence using symbols in the right fashion, it can be done.Learning for the master.The master has to learn to heal himself first and then move on to other people. All personal issues should be resolved by self therapy and then others can be treated.
