HEALING
BREAKING OUT OF A 3D WORLD Our upbringing has entrenched in us a belief in a ‘three-dimensional- plus-time’ world, a construct which allows causation, description and measurement, and death. Now we find ourselves in contact with intangibles. We can communicate with our higher self, our inner child, with people who are not physically present or connected by technology or who have passed away, with organisations, relationships, and with animals and even the natural world. And beyond this again, we find ourselves in communication with spiritual beings. We become aware that we are not alone and that guidance is available, should we choose to accept it. The initial working hypothesis takes
a terrible beating when you find angels hanging about or filling the sky. After checking and deciding that no, you have not actually gone mad, the questions start to crowd in. What, you ask, is it actually all about? Have I missed something important? And the whole frame of reference starts to morph. You still go to work and eat your
dinner, but the inner conversation now runs along the lines of how to construct another working hypothesis. ‘What am
I meant to be doing?’, you ask yourself. What’s the highest goal? Should I be doing something different with my life? What’s the best use of my time? If I somehow persist beyond the time I spend in this body, what is my role in the wider scheme of things? And you remember, slowly, that you are a child of the universe.
CHANGING, WE BECOME OUR TRUE SELVES It takes time and can be incredibly frustrating. You are, in essence, giving birth to yourself. You are working towards becoming an integrated being, one who uses all the resources that we were given at birth, the lessons we have learned through the joyous and painful journey, and the capacities of our higher- level brain functions. Plus the knowledge and tools we have acquired. And the whole shebang illuminated by the light of the reiki energy. Wounded, we become passionate
healers. Hurt, we become compassionate. Lost and alienated, we reach out. Not because an authority tells us we should, but because this is our inherent nature—we are fulfilling our destiny, doing whatever we can in this life.
Reiki channels find many ways to express the powers they have attained. Some work with family, friends and colleagues, some set up as professional healers and teachers, some find their way to support the disadvantaged, prisoners, or the dying. Still others find ways to combine reiki with their professional practice as nurses or therapists. And all of them heal themselves as best they can while offering profound service to humanity and all living things. There can be great happiness in
finding deep meaning, in shedding the burdens of the past and escaping the prison of convention, and in doing your own thing to the full extent of your ability. This is the reiki journey. l
