There was an interesting query from a Reiki Channel recently: “When you say, do healing every day after 21 days of cleansing period... what do u mean precisely?...still the 13 points..every day?
My answer: Yes, all 13
points every day. It is equivalent to brushing all the teeth every day. Do you
need to brush all the teeth? Do you need to brush every day? The answer is YES
I hope. Same way to clean all the dirt from our mental emotional bodies (which
we accumulate on a daily basis), we need to heal ALL 13 points EVERY single
day.
I put this in my Reiki group for the benefit of others, which got
followed up with another question:
“In line with this, recently I came across a friend who learnt Reiki
last year. She mentioned 24 points, I wanted to know the difference between the
13 points that we learnt and those 24 points. Kindly clarify.”
I thought that before
answering that question I needed to bring attention how Reiki was influencing
our lives. So I asked the group members “Let me ask something else. Whoever has
been practicing Reiki healing for more than three months, please tell me what
is Reiki's contribution to your life? Secondly, can you quote one (more than
one is also welcome) Aha moment, a blessing, or a totally surprising incident
that happened when you had requested Reiki.”
Here are some responses:
“It's been a very long time practicing Reiki. It’s almost 14 years
now. I regularly do Reiki once a day and twice when I feel like. Now Reiki practice has become an integral
part of life. I request Reiki a number of times in a day. Few instances like,
while driving if I'm late, I request for clear roads, no signals (many times I
see green signals). I request Reiki for parking space, to my surprise, only
enough space to park my car will be available. Ups and downs are part of life
but with Reiki I'm able to come out of such situations.”
“I feel quite relaxed when I do Reiki self-healing. One incident I
would like to quote, when I was travelling on first day of my periods which are
very painful I practiced Reiki in flight
and I was asleep for around 8 hours waking up feeling much lighter. I realized
that was the only solution I had at that time which worked.”
“I am practicing Reiki from last 8 years. I regularly do Reiki at
night and I get a sound sleep. Reiki has also helped me to keep calm. I used to
get severe body pain repeatedly and used to take painkillers and antibiotic
tablets. But by practicing Reiki it is cured and from many years I have stopped
taking antibiotics and painkillers for body pain. I have realized that Reiki is
the only solution to clean dirt from our mental emotional bodies.”
“I have been practicing Reiki from 2002, and I have seen many
changes. In my house the environment changed, my skills improved. I have
observed that I no longer take pain killers.
Here is an interesting incident: I was supposed to go to Hubli for a
College workshop for one month. It used to be difficult for me to manage even
for a week because I have to make my kid ready before 7.am, before I leave to
Hubli. Now it's for one month. I just prayed and asked Reiki’s help to have
this workshop in Belgaum College itself. Yes, my prayer was answered.”
“I got attuned in 2006. One of the first wonders of Reiki was to
get a glimpse of the college even before joining or selection of my PG seat. I
can never forget that moment when I walked into a college I had seen when I
asked Reiki about what was in store for me. Reiki has become a part of making
each day and events easier and peaceful. Thank you Reiki. I have not taken pain
killers or antibiotics in years now. I
fall ill less often and when I do it is mild and tolerable. In the last 3 years
I have seen amazing things happen professionally, I am a calmer and more
peaceful person these days and slowly progressing spiritually. Reiki becomes so
much a part of our daily lives that counting miracles is tough. It is easy to stop practicing but the
benefits of practicing once you start noticing them will make us motivated for
more.”
It is interesting to note that many Reiki channels completely stop
taking painkillers and antibiotics after regular practice. Miracles become day
to day happening after Reiki. I have heard from many Reiki students (who were
not spiritual to start with) that they noticed their inclination towards
spiritual practices after a period of Reiki self-healing.
Now I thought it was time to answer the basic question and I came
to that.
“Ok, now let us come back to this question that came in earlier.
From the previous discussions we saw that regular practice of Reiki changes
lives – physically, mentally, emotionally, socially, economically, and
spiritually. But what are we doing - just giving Reiki healing to our physical
bodies. As we keep doing self-healing
daily, our breathing pattern changes. According to medical information, a human
adult breathes about 15 times per minute. Long term Reiki healing brings this
rate down. Mine is about 6 to 8 breaths per minute. Check yours now, to see how
sincere your Reiki healing practice has been.
As our breathing rate comes down, we remain calmer, can make
decisions properly, and are not easily shaken up by daily incidents. Since
breath is intimately connected to mind, this has happened. When you keep doing
self-healing every single day, the healing and balancing percolates to all
other fields. You stop self-healing after a period of time, you stop
progressing, and after some more time without daily healing, you start
deteriorating, unless you have some other strong spiritual practice like
meditation or chanting. But even then you miss out on so many blessings that
Reiki keeps giving.
Now, providing healing energy to the physical body is our duty. If
we have all the time in the world, why not give energy to every inch of your
body? Is it practical? Or we can choose points in the body that distributes
energy to other areas. When we give energy to the major chakra points, both
front and back, it provides energy to the whole physical body. In addition to
this, remember that our endocrine glands are situated in the chakra areas. Once
the endocrine glands are energized, they secrete optimally, keeping our body
functions normal and gives high immunity.
Of course you can give healing energy to as many areas in the body
as you like. According to my lineage of Reiki, we have followed the 13 points
healing daily. And I have been following this every single day for the last 27
years. So when I attune you and instruct you to follow this, that holds some
power. If another Reiki master has been trained to heal other organ areas, that
should be followed by his /her students.
