Change your own belief system

I had a client consulting over the phone for Reiki. “I am only five feet tall, too short for a man to be. I can do so much in life. I am intelligent and capable of reaching high position in life. BUT for my short stature.”

He went on describing the drawbacks of being a short person, which wouldn’t have happened, I am sure, if he was having a face to face consultation because I am too short for a lady.

I gave him many examples of short people who have achieved great things in life. Later I attuned him to Reiki and instructed him to do daily self healing.

Obstacles from your own mind

He explained to me that during job interviews he could feel how the interviewer would take a glance and think low of him.

I have come across many instances where people lead pathetic lives because of ‘what people are saying (or even thinking about) to them.’ It is very important for them to analyse and find the deeper truth.

Others may say anything to you, but unless it resonates with your own belief system, it cannot affect you. I know it personally because people used to (and still do occasionally) look sympathetically at me and make remarks because I do not have a son. It never affected me, since in my mind, there was no iota of doubt that not having a son doesn't make me an inferior being in any respect.  

Totally your responsibility

You cannot wait for others to stop making remarks or looking down upon you to feel better. You need to just change your belief system and thinking pattern. Of course this can’t be achieved overnight. Because we acquire thought patterns and belief systems over many incarnations. It is a difficult task, but not impossible, but then on you can get in touch with the peace and tranquillity that reside within you!  

So next time when somebody makes a remark and you feel low, pause for a second. Look within and ask yourself, "Is this my belief too? Is there truth in what I heard just now? If it is not true, should I be affected? If there is truth, how long can I run away from the truth? What can I do to accept this truth and go ahead with my life?"

There are many approaches that can help you. Rational thinking, deep breathing, Reiki, and meditation are some of them.

Reiki for fortunes

“I want to become a millionaire. Can Reiki help me?”

“Will Reiki help me to improve my business?”

“Will you teach me ‘Money mantra’ in Reiki?”

Even though majority of people come to learn Reiki for physical healing, I do get to hear the above questions.

When I entered the world of Reiki healing way back in 1997, I thought healing can be equated to 2+2 = 4., which meant if I give Reiki for a particular problem to any number of clients, they should all show same improvement. As I progressed, I realised that it is not always so. It may be 2+2 = 3 or 2+2 = 5, or even 2+2 = 0.

When we give Reiki, we are just transferring healing energy to the client. How that energy is used, and to what extent, will depend on the client’s willingness in his/her subconscious mind.

Explanation from PLR

One explanation I got when I became a past life regression therapist. If two clients come to me with the same situation – they are advised surgery and are looking for some means that can make them healthy without undergoing surgery. Both receive Reiki healing. One overcomes the problem without undergoing the surgery, but the other has to go under the surgeon’s knife. But because of the Reiki healing received, during the surgery there will be less bleeding, less pain, healing will be faster and the side effects of medicines will be controlled.

It is possible that the latter person had a karmic connection with the surgeon in some past life, and the surgeon has to clear his karmic debt by helping the person to restore his health by doing surgery.

Everything according to the Universal laws

Reiki is an intelligent energy, it does and gives what is best for you, within the framework of Universal laws, and it respects your free will too.

Before taking birth, if you had taken a decision to be a millionaire and it was not materialising due to various reasons, Reiki healing will hasten that process and you will soon realise your dream. On the other hand, if you had decided at the soul level to experience a mediocre life, you may not become a millionaire. But as you go deep into Reiki healing, with spiritual advancement, you learn that money is just one requirement in life and it does not give lasting happiness. It becomes obvious that there are other deeper and subtler things opening up before one that leads on to lasting joy and peace.  When you reach that stage, it no longer matters whether you are rolling in money or not.
