History of Reiki History of Reiki THE HISTORY OF THE SYSTEM OF REIKI: There is not a great deal known in specific detail about the origins of the system of Reiki. That may well be the reason for the variety of stories that have been created in our most recent past to “fill in” the gaps so to speak. ARC would like to acquaint its members and website readers with the basic and factual history that can be accounted for rather than the many myths that have been creatively developed overtime. This information is derived from a number of sources: The Mikao Usui memorial stone - carved on granite block in 1927 by his students. This can be viewed in Tokyo today and is often visited by Reiki practitioners from around the world. The text is in old Japanese (pre-1945) An English translation by Japanese monk, Hyakuten Inamoto, (translation can be found at bottom of this page) Japanese teachers such as Hiroshi Doi (member of the Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai – traditional Japanese Reiki society). Hyakuten Inamoto (Japanese monk and Reiki teacher). Japanese books by and about students of Mikao Usui. Hawayo Takata’s students (upon validation). 1865 In 1865 Mikao Usui (1865-1926) was born to a samurai family descended from the Chiba clan. Mikao Usui married Sadako Suzuki (?-1946) and they had a boy, Fuji (1908-1946) and a girl, Toshiko (1913-1935). There is little known of Mikao Usui’s life. He is spoken of as a humble man with a spiritual nature who brought together a number of elements from his understanding of the world to create the system of Reiki. 1922 In 1922 Mikao Usui climbed Mt Kurama and practiced an austerity training culminating in a deeper or different understanding of his spiritual practices. In the past it has been quite common for lay people to complete such austere mountain trainings in Japan. The beginnings of the Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai were started by Mikao Usui in Tokyo. It was set up to cater to naval officers and other lay people. A number of teaching centres were set up around the country. Dr. Chujiro Hayashi, a retired naval officer and surgeon, began his studies as a Reiki teacher with Mikao Usui in 1925. It is thought that he may have written a hand position manual for Mikao Usui in order to support students who were less energetically competent in relation to their intuitive abilities. 1926 Mikao Usui died of a stroke in Fukuyama. The Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai claim that there were at least 11 students studying Shinpiden (what some call the Teacher or Master level in the West) when he died. Toshihiro Eguchi (1873-1946) and Kaiji Tomita, students of Mikao Usui, became well known as practitioners and were both authors of books on healing. Toshihiro Eguchi is said to have taught approximately 500,000 students. 1927-1933 Chujiro Hayashi practiced under the auspices of the Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai until 1933 when he opened his own centre. The Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai continued to run teaching centres. 1933-1938 Chujiro Hayashi (1880-1940) is credited with running the first actual commercial healing centre where people would come for healing and practitioners would work on them. Two practitioners worked on the one person. Chujiro Hayashi wrote that he had taught 13 Reiki Masters by 1938. From 1936-1938 Hawayo Takata, an American born Japanese woman studied with him and became one of these Reiki Masters. Other students of his were Chiyoko Yamaguchi (1920/21-2003) and Chujiro Hayashi’s wife, Chie (no longer living). Chujiro Hayashi’s teachings were from the latter period of Mikao Usui’s life. Chujiro Hayashi’s influence on the system helped develop a more technical and clinical approach due to his medical background. Mikao Usui was NOT a doctor. 1938-1980 Hawayo Takata (1900-1980) took the system of Reiki back to Hawaii, USA and set up the first non- Japanese Reiki clinic. It seems that what she taught technically was in line with her teacher’s teachings. She did not teach the chakra system and neither did Chujiro Hayashi. Instead, her diary relates that she knew of and taught about the hara method. Her historical knowledge of the system on the other hand varied according to the time and occasion it was told in. Chujiro Hayashi died in 1940 with his wife continuing to teach in his place. From the mid -1970s until her death in 1980, Hawayo Takata trained, in total, 22 students to teach the system of Reiki as she knew it. The Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai which developed during Mikao Usui’s lifetime continued to exist in Japan throughout this time but had dwindled in size from its larger national reach in the late 1920s/early 1930s. This included an hiatus in activity during the Second World War. A list of past Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai Presidents: Juzaburo Ushida, Kanichi Taketomi, Yoshiharu Watanabe, Hoichi Wanami, Kimiko Koyama. Masaki Kondo is the current President. 1980-Today After Hawayo Takata died her students began to set up their own practices and create Reiki groups and associations. Debate began over what was the true system of Reiki. A group called The Reiki Alliance standardized the Western system and taught what they called Usui Shiki Ryoho. Hawayo Takata’s granddaughter was their head and the term ‘Grandmaster’ was created by this organisation to, in their eyes, reflect her position. This term had not been used in the system of Reiki in either Japan or the West previously. Barbara Weber Ray, another Reiki Master of Hawayo Takata, began her own system calling it The Radiance Technique and claimed to have the only true teachings. These teachings appear to be influenced by her New Age beliefs. From these teachings a number of other schools have also developed, such as the Seven Level System in Australia, which is not acknowledged by The Radiance Technique. Such systems consisting of seven levels are not considered Usui Reiki by ARC and therefore students of these schools are not eligible for ARC membership. Some students of Hawayo Takata, such as Iris Ishikuro and her student Arthur Robertson, drew New Age concepts into the system of Reiki during the 1980s. The freeing up of any structure to the system occurred. This meant that individual myths and schisms easily developed and spread with some making outrageous claims including statements that the system of Reiki came from Tibet and Atlantis. Some practitioners began channeling information from spirits and guides and including these practices as elements of the system of Reiki. ARC members are requested to differentiate these add-ons from Usui Reiki when dealing with clients and students. Although ARC widely accepts membership from Reiki practitioners throughout the globe who meet the membership criteria, there are certain standards relating to the practice of the Usui System of Reiki that need to be retained. For that reason ARC does not accept membership from Reiki inspired practices that have developed since the 1980s ARCs standards are in no way related to, or make assumptions about, the efficacy of any of these practices. In the 1990s, research into the system of Reiki brought more factual information to light from sources such as the Memorial Stone, books by Mikao Usui’s students and other media which have provided a gradual opening of information from a few traditional Japanese practitioners. There is also only limited information available from the Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai at this point in time. The vast majority of Reiki taught in Japan today has come from the more modern forms of Western influenced Reiki. Today in the West there are a variety of teachings available to the prospective Reiki student. ARC focuses on the teachings, either through Japan or the West, that are based in the tradition of Usui Reiki; that which can be traced back to the teachings of Mikao Usui. USUI MIKAO'S MEMORIAL STONE This is a translation of Usui Mikao's memorial stone by Japanese Reiki Teacher and Buddhist monk Hyakuten Inamoto. The memorial stone was erected by the Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai in Japan one year after Usui Mikao's death. Reiho Choso Usui Sensei Kudoko No Hi Memorial of the merits of Usui Sensei, the founder of Reiho (Reiki Ryoho) That which is attained within oneself after having accumulated the fruits of disciplined study and training is called 'Toku' and that which can be offered to others after having spread a path of teaching and salvation is called 'Koh'. Only with high merits and great virtues can one be a great founding teacher. Sagacious and brilliant men of the olden time or the founders of new teachings and religious sects were all like that. Someone like Usui Sensei can be counted among them. Sensei newly founded the method based on Reiki of the universe to improve the mind and body. Having heard of his reputation all over, people crowded around to seek his teachings and treatments. Ah, how popular it is! Sensei, commonly known by the name 'Mikao', with an extra name 'Gyohan' is from Taniai-mura (village) Yamagata-gun (county), Gifu-ken (prefecture). He is descended from Chiba Tsunetane. His father's name was Taneuji, and was commonly called Uzaemon. His mother was from the Kawai family. Sensei was born on August 15 of the first year of Keio (1865 A.D.). From his youth he surpassed his fellows in hard work and endeavor. When he grew up he visited Europe and America, and studied in China. Despite his will to succeed in life, he was stalemated and fell into great difficulties.

  • Buddha Energies Package Descriptions
    BUDDHA ENERGIES PACKAGE DESCRIPTIONS Blue Lotus Energy Healing Blue Lotus Energy Healing is a new energy channele by Ansara Moldave of PEI, Canada . There are two levels of BLEH and one symbol for each level. History of the Blue Lotus: The blue lotus (Nymphaea caerulea) belongs to the Nymphaeaceae (Water-Lily) family. Many ancient cultures considered the blue lotus to be of esteemed status. In Asia and in Africa, the blue lotus symbolized immortality in recognition of the plant's ability to survive and re-sprout after long droughts, and the seed's ability to remain viable for many years (Edwards, 1998). InChina it was regarded as a religious symbol, and a symbol of feminine beauty. Similarly in India it was compared with the human female form, and in their legends they believe that Brahma, their creator of the universe, sprang from a lotus-like blossom (Edwards, 1998). The Japanese saw a representation of purity and the juxtaposition of good and evil, and the Buddhist's have a prayer mentioning the lotus, "Omi! Mani padme hum!" which is interpreted as, "Oh!, the jewel in the lotus flower!" (Edwards, 1998). The Greeks also admired the blue lotus. They associated the flowers with the mythical nymphs and beautiful maidens thought to inhabit the forests and mountains (Edwards, 1998). Buddha Palm Ki Buddha Palm Ki healing technique is an advanced energy system that will activate and open the light of your palms and mind. There are 5 attunements that you will receive 3 days apart. All you need to do is schedule the first one and you will receive one every 3 days until all 5 are sent out, so they will take a total of 15 days to receive.

  • Walking the Long Path: the Art of Genuine Reiki Practice
    September 2003 Volume 3, No. 3 WALKING THE LONG PATH: THE ART OF GENUINE REIKI PRACTICE M.L. 'Max' Roth, U.R.M. Throughout humankind's history of healing therapies, such as Theraputic Touch, and their often- attendant Eastern mystical practices, such as reiki, charismatic individuals have contributed to the path of healers’ development. Mikao Usui wrote a manual of his teachings on reiki in 1920. In April of 1922, he opened his first "Seat of Learning" in Harajuku, Tokyo. His teachings inspired the senior population, who experienced them as a return to the older "spiritual practices." Reiki is a healing art evolved from Eastern visions of what our universe is and how it functions. Today, in the West, we grow master teachers, who, like their patients and students, have rushed up the ranks through an "instant" reiki system of weekend seminars, offering little, if any, foundation in Eastern thinking, and who are continuing to churn the master-making machinery. Is reiki a valid complementary healing modality? Yes. Are there honest, serious master teachers? Yes. However, qualified reiki masters are rare, and the responsibility of learning to navigate the legitimate reiki path belongs to the student. I believe that background knowledge in Eastern disciplines and concepts is a prerequisite for both a genuine master teacher and for serious students who wish to achieve a deep, committed reiki practice. The truly qualified master teachers have accomplished a change in their world view that is all encompassing, and a student using a solid background in Eastern philosophical and spiritual views is more likely to recognize this quality in a prospective master teacher.

  • Reiki and Tantric Magic’)
    NEW WEBSITE: www.ephesians-511.net AUGUST 2004, AUGUST 2009, MAY/OCTOBER 2012 R e i k i , a n d H o l i s t i c H e a l i n g WHAT IS REIKI? Pronounced as “ray-key”, REIKI is a Japanese word that means “Universal Life Force Energy”. It is a kind of ‘healing energy’ that was supposedly ‘rediscovered’ by a medical doctor named Mikao Usui in the 19th century. However, different schools of this ‘New Age’ technique have evolved, and, with them, several versions of its origin and development, differing in some details. Sterling Publishers of Delhi, in their New Age ‘New Dawn’ ‘All You Wanted to Know about…’ series of pocket-sized books on Alternative therapies, says this on Reiki which is “dedicated to the Lotus Feet of Bhagwan Sri Sathya Sai Baba” by Sumeet Sharma: “REIKI is a Japanese word comprising two parts –Rei and Ki, and these are Japanese Kangi characters. REI means universal spiritual wisdom or consciousness. The wisdom that comes directly from GOD or the HIGHER SELF. It is not only God-conscious but is also all-knowing. It understands each person completely, with the root cause of the person’s problems and difficulties, and knows how to heal them. KI means the LIFE FORCE, and this is referred to by the Chinese as the CHI, [and] by the Indians as PRANA… Anything that is alive has a life force circulating and surrounding it, but the life force departs when it dies. When the life force is high and free-flowing, one is less likely to get sick, and vice-versa.

  • Reiki: Touch of the Spirit
    September 2005 Volume 5, No. 3 REIKI: TOUCH OF THE SPIRIT Christina St. Clair Abstract Reiki is a healing art that hails back to Hinduism, Buddhism, and Shintoism, and was originally developed by Mikao Usui in Japan. This article presents the importance of its use for all people, regardless of their belief system, as a means of healing and involvement with other people. The author talks about her own experiences with Reiki, relieving pain for others, and helping her become more hands-on and less aloof. She also explains the basic Reiki tenets, briefly describes the seven major chakras (energy centers in the body), and how Reiki attunements begin the process of healing self and others through a mysterious source of interconnectedness, which might be likened to the Oneness in Christ that begins with the ritual of baptism. Background When I was first introduced to Reiki, a friend wanted to put her hands on my chakras and balance my energy. My initial response was standoffish: I'm English; didn't she understand about English people? Our personal space is about ten feet away from the body! In my family we don't hug after a year of separation, and we even try to keep each other at arm's length. The idea of healing as an actual hands-on contact seemed very strange. In our society inappropriate physical contact is a very serious issue. As a Christian who is also a minister, I often pray for people. I can't say how or who or what responds, but something/someone does.

Title: Reusing Ancient Symbols of Power in Modern Energy Medicine Practices Ancient tools of shamanism, including the bear posture, headdress and shamanic mirror, were applied to modern CAM energy healing practices of core shamanism, Reiki and Quantum-Touch to determine the effect on the practitioner’s physical experience, healing abilities and connection with the ineffable. Stimulation of the core point near the pituitary gland promoted fairly consistent connection with both the body and the ineffable. Stimulation of the pineal gland to promote this connection was counterproductive in all cases. The shamanic mirror exhibited the agency of supervenient sacralization through engagement with the participant’s conscious intention. The bear pose only benefited the basic shamanic healing
