A Reiki Master Course basically teaches you what Reiki is, who can practice Reiki and the importance of the life enhancing Reiki principles.
Reiki is multidimensional. It reaches up to the core of the imbalance in mind, body, and spirit, which is within the nucleus of each and every the cell, and then moves outward through the tissue balancing and thus healing.
A Reiki practitioner’s is the instrument through which universal energy flows, drawn in by any imbalance in the mind, body, or spirit of the person, animal, or plant which needs balance.
Reiki Master Course Intro 1: What is Reiki?
In Japan, in the early 1920s, Mikao Usui developed Reiki-ho (Reiki method) as “the way to make mind and body healthy on the basis of Universal Reiki”. Reiki is the vibration of love and harmony of universal energy. Reiki-ho is not only a wonderful “healing technique”, but also “an effective way to raise spirituality and to create a positive life”. Reiki brings all within and around the body into balance, surrounding with harmony, and thus healing the mind, body, and spirit. I have had students say to me, “Reiki is making such a positive difference in my life.”
Reiki Master Course Intro 2: Who is able to practice Reiki?
The source of Reiki is from God, The Creator, Spirit, the Universal Mind, Your Inner-Self, or whatever you call Him, Her, or It, and as a result anyone can practice Reiki. We are all equal, and we have the ability to heal others and ourselves. In fact it is our forgotten birthright. But being a Reiki “Master” doesn’t make someone better than anyone else, and it doesn’t even mean that you have mastered the art of Reiki, which is not possible, it simply means that you have been attuned to the Master Level of Reiki, learned all of the Reiki symbols, and know how to send attunements, and teach others. In my personal opinion we should all be called Reiki practitioners, but since the attunements are only given and accepted from Reiki Masters, this is the only reason why there is a need of distinction. To some people, the title “Master” gives them a feeling of superiority or power, just like other occupations do.
Reiki Master Course Intro 3: The Reiki principles are very important!
As an important part of the Reiki Master Course you will learn the Reiki Principles, which the founder Usui always emphasized to his student. These principles are:
Just for today…
Do not worry. Do not get angry. Be grateful. Work hard. Be kind to others.
Think for a moment. If only 1% of humanity would stick to these principles, how would be the world look like today?
