Advanced Reiki Techniques

Reiki Meditation With Level II Energies/SymbolsBy Carl Tessier

This

is

a form in development, for your Reiki path may continue to Shinpiden

(Master), which would give a radical boost to your spiritual efforts.

The

sounds/symbols you now have are, however, a very strong start,

especially if you

are new to the discipline of meditation. These are steps for the

beginner.

Set

aside a twenty minute period in the morning, before your day begins, and

an equal time at night, before you go to sleep. As long as your spine is

erect, head and body aligned comfortably, you can sit on a chair, bed or

the floor. The surface must not be too yielding, and although posture is

not rigidly emphasized here, it is one of the aspects that need improvement

and attention as you move along. Designate an area and always meditate

there. Try to sit at the same times each day. You may face a blank wall

or have an altar. When you first sit, do it with great intention and purpose.

An invocation or prayer may be offered at the start and finish.

For

the duration of your sitting, very gently and slightly turn your eyes up

toward the spiritual eye. Meditation is basically a process of concentration,

deepening and expansion. Another way to say it is that the consciousness

and energy need to be withdrawn from the five senses, to become settled

in the subtle centers along the spine, then directed toward the spiritual

chakras, establishing oneself in the highest centers in the brain.

Always

begin with concentration. Invoke CKR and continue to visualize it as

you mentally chant its mantra. Once there is a flow of spiritual current

and interiorization of the mind and senses, continue with deepening; invoke

SHK and visualize it as you chant inwardly. A greater sense of harmony

and equilibrium will pervade your experience. Enjoy that. Feel it. Let

it become a part of you. When you invoke, visualize and chant HSZSN

feel yourself open up to Spirit. Apart from total peace, you may have an

experience of illumination and presence. In this expanded state continue

to sit with awareness. Keep the eyes and attention gently at the spiritual

eye. Feel the Divine coursing through you.

Take

moments between the sounds/symbols to savor, and sensitize to what is happening.

Technique has less to do with success than your attentiveness to that Sweet

Presence, although without technique it is difficult to detach from sensory

conditioning. When all three phases are done, leave time to be in the company

of the spiritual Reality. This is the Source of your being, your very existence.

Honor It and feel the Great Love in which you live.

This

is only a basic form to get you started. Gather your experiences in Reiki

meditation and bring into it everything you know about Reiki. You will

develop a solid meditation practice by following your own lead and inner

guidance.

Reiki Prayer

Prayer

and silent, spiritual meditation go together. There are many types of meditation,

guided or self-applied, used for specific purposes; personal growth, health,

emotional well-being, accelerated learning. To erase spiritual ignorance,

however, we must practice a form of sitting, silent meditation as described

above and in all perennial wisdom traditions. It is the surest way to commune

with the Divine.

This

type of meditation is receiving from God. Prayer is sending to God. Prayer

can be a petition, asking for yourself; intercession, asking

for another; confession, asking for forgiveness; lamentation,

asking for fairness; adoration or devotion, expressing love,

honor and praise for God; thanksgiving, a perpetual state of gratitude;

invocation,

calling forth the Divine Presence; and declaration, making a firm

statement of truth. It can also be directed (specific) or nondirected (surrender).

However, prayer is a profound and personal experience and there are endless

ways in which to pray. 

One

of the best times to pray is when Divine contact has been made at the culmination

of a period of sincere meditation. When we pray we take essential, pure

thoughts and feelings, beyond words even while using words, and give them

as gifts or offerings to the Source of our being. We use all our internal

power (love and will) to so touch this Great Being as to change the fabric

of life.

What

Reiki can add to prayer is its special way of increasing and moving ki,

life force. The power of this method is derived from the effect Reiki has

of energizing thoughts, feelings and visualizations and increasing their

vibration so as to lift them to the spiritual level. The prayer we generate

at the level of our bodily earth existence, is sent to the level at which

prayers are answered in a vitally charged way.

Reiki Personal Power

RecoverySM (RPPR)

This

is a step by step technique that encompasses Reiki on the subtle bodies.

It is a strong energy therapy and needs to be respected as such. The client’s

situation and response will modify each application. Work on the subtle

bodies can be done within each Reiki session, whereas RPPR is an entire

session on its own. You will develop an understanding that lets you know

when this technique is appropriate.

RPPR

utilizes an altered state of consciousness (ASC—another term is “nonordinary

state of consciousnessâ€â€”NOSC) so easily accessible with Reiki. For this

technique and ultimately for healing to be successful, the dominance of

a limited, only-matter-is-real, externally focused consciousness has to

be surpassed. For the client to consider, feel and eventually experience

the rich content and dimensions of his or her being, for unhealthy intangibles

to be recognized and released, the consciousness and vision of possibilities

has to be expanded.

The

overall concept of RPPR is the management of personal power or energy.

Not the physical energy that is the fuel of all activities, although that

is included, but energy in the sense of the quality and condition of vitality,

the heart’s harmony, the mind’s focus and the soul’s illumination.

A

personal power deficiency, seepage, or total unavailability is so common

that healing could be essentially defined as the reclamation and proper

distribution of personal energy and power. The soul is all-powerful. We

are born with this power intact. What makes it a power is the soul’s knowingness

of its own nature: worthy, loved, joyful, beautiful, creative, limitless,

a piece of God, a divine design originated in truth and Light.

However

the karma game is that the soul continues to evolve and participates in

the universal plan through physical incarnation. It has been doing this

for eons. Each incarnation collects karma (literally action—every action

has a consequence, good or bad). These karmic seeds sprout in future lives

and determine certain aspects of those lives, but the seeds are reversible,

transmutable and completely governed by personal choice. In other words,

we have total power over our life and destiny. To activate and apply this

power is what the spiritual path is all about.

It

is a process that can be baffling, painful, and heavy. Yet the soul and

God are always with us at every twist and turn. Since our true nature is

the nature of the soul, all the aspects of our being belong to the soul.

Therefore personal power interruptions could be called “soul loss†or the

“loss of soul parts.†Soul loss can happen at any age, under any circumstance.

When

a soul part (or any part of our psyche or soma) is lost, stolen, denied,

abandoned or abused, it creates an energy and power deficiency in our overall

system. Either the fragmented part takes a certain unit of power with it,

or some of our energy continues to be fed to it, even though it no longer

serves a purpose. So there is this disembodied entity that either needs

to be brought home, or released completely and transmuted. Otherwise it

literally causes serious problems in the availability and management of

personal power. Are you in full possession of your entire presence? Healing

is the ability to change consciousness. It is the consciousness of disempowerment

that has to change first. Choice is the switch that controls our energy.

Once choice is aligned with harmony and wholeness and we dispense or preserve

our energy with higher, discriminative will, then consciousness can be

refined and stabilized in a new, healed state.
