Here’s a post titled “Reiki – what it is?” from last week.
It occured to me that I forgot to translate Dr. Mikao Usui’s quote. A little bit edited for less awkwardness common in straight translations …
Here it is:
Body and Spirit enhanced through Usui Reiki teachings …
Here’s a secret method I share
Here’s a spiritual medicine against all diseaseDo not be angry today
Do not worry today
Rather hold gratitude in our hearts today and always
Work hard and be kind to others
Gassho (Anjeli/Prayer mudra) every morning and evening
Etch this in our hearts and
Sing this chant …(of health in body and spirit, “Reiki”)
To me, Reiki is loving tenderness, an energy transfer work rendered and directed by another to the suffering; while to me, YOGA is about empowerment; about self-care where you render that healing towards your own Self not dependent, not reliant on others. Not reliant on any other energizing or soothing dependencies but one’s own innate wisdom (once awakened to) regulate and find natural balance. It’s about self-discovery of our own body map so that we can have a smoother efficient journey riding through the ups and downs of our own terrain – living a more joyful life with grace. Gracefully yours – Namaste:)
