What is Jikiden Reiki?

The Japanese word "Reiki" can be translated by "universal energy or soul energy". It is the vital-energy, which is all around us.

Jikiden Reiki means: "Reiki - direct teaching." It is the original method taught and practiced by Mikao Usui Sensei and later by Dr. Hayashi Sensei.

After World War II, Reiki teaching and practicing was forbidden in Japan and many other countries, and was nearly forgotten. Thanks to the Yamaguchi family and the work of the German author Frank Arjava Petter, we have today the opportunity to learn it again.

Compared to "western style" Reiki, it's practice is much simpler, without the addition of mysterious techniques, created by a lot of teachers. To me, it's action seems a bit more intense than that of the "western style", which may be due to the influence of traditional Chinese medicine, added by Dr. Hayashi Sensei.

But both methods work fine, and that's the reason, why I still teach both of them.

Practicing Reiki is the most natural thing in the world:

• When you hit the table with your knee, your hand goes straight to it to ease the pain. When your teeth ache, you put your hand on the cheek for the same reason.
• The becoming parents put their hands on the pregnant belly which provides their baby with better growth, development and wellbeing.
• Parents caress or blow away the pains of their children.

All this is practicing Reiki. It's effect:

• Reiki evacuates the toxins and harmful substances from the body.
• Activates the natural self-healing power.
• Removes emotional blocks and balances your deepest feelings.
• Works against stress as it relaxes deeply.
• Leads to a positive attitude towards life.
• Improves your spiritual development.

The reason why we need Reiju (attunement) is very simple: People block the free flow of energy through their fears, negative experiences and education. The Reiju cleans the Reiki channel, and as a result, the flow of energy gets strong, which allows you to give universal energy to others without weakening yourself.

The field for applying Reiki is vast:

• Headaches, flues, tensions, pains in the back, gastritis, tendinitis, menstruation problems, etc.
• Sudden problems lake toothache, cuts, diarheia, etc.
• Chronical illnesses.
• Postoperative treatment.
• You can even treat cancer without any risk, because the body will use the energy to remove the cause, not to feed the cancer.

But keep in mind: Reiki must never replace a medical or medicational treatment. It can always be used as a complement. Also a Reiki practitioner must never make a healing promise!
