Dearest Swami G, and all
This is a wonderful exchange. From it some reflections
are coming.
It is sad to see that Reiki is not understood, just
because the one who tought it, didn´t understand it,
or because it is not so easy to understand that, as
with any other spiritual path, this one may lead to
realize the truth of existence. It is taken short, not
with the deep possibilities that it offers for one to
surrender to Reiki, let´s say, to Consciousness or
God, that Power which enables existence to be manifest
and apparently individualized.
Many people take the Reiki courses as a means to
experience life in a different form, or because they
have some inclinations towards healing themselves or
others. From my point of view, this is fine. But it is
sad to observe that with a better teaching, they could
practice it as a means to liberation. I am not sure
every Reiki teacher or practitioner knows that this is
a possible path towards liberation, enlightenment,
radical understanding and perfect peace as well as to
love and compassion in motion.
Reiki, as a path of active surrenderness and service,
and mostly if accompanied by inner self enquiry, is as
complete and good as any other path.
I really hope that more teachers understand this so
that they invite their students to do the neccesary
search for an enlightened Master who can help put the
intentions in the right direction by a proper
explanation and guidance.
Love,
Maria Luisa
