1. (noun) The energy channelled by
Reiki practitioners.
2. (verb) A process of passively channelling the basic energy that underlies material existence (somewhat comparable to the concepts of chi and
prana) into a recipient or recipients to facilitate their self-healing and wellbeing.
Reiki is distinguished from other healing energy techniques because practitioners are taught through a ritualistic
attunement process involving supernatural entities, and because the energy has its own intelligence.
Modern Reiki was developed in Japan by a man called Mikao
Usui, but its true origins have been clouded by politics and religious bigotry.
1. "Would you like some
Reiki?"
2. "If you are ready to change, I'll Reiki your pain away"
3. The force?
"My ally is the force, and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it; makes it grow. Its' energy surrounds us and
binds us . . . You must
feel the force around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the rock; everywhere..." (Yoda)
