The
history of Reiki the founder and the origin of where this
beautiful healing came from and started. The founder of reiki
is Dr Usui he is a Japanese monk who knew that there was something
different about him. This is where it all started in the late
1800s Dr Usui began his 21 year study of the spiritual healing
phenomenal. This is where he and learnt the art of natural
healing, This is the story of my Great Master.
Reiki
is believed to have begun in Tibet several thousand years
ago. Seers in the Orient studied energies and developed a
system of sounds and symbols for universal healing energies.
Various healing systems, which crossed many different cultures,
emerged from this single root system. Unfortunately, the original
source itself was forgotten.
Dr. Mikao Usui, a Japanese Christian educator in Kyoto, Japan,
rediscovered the root system in the mid- to late 1800s.These
teachings written in Sanskrit). He discovered ancient sounds
and symbols that are linked directly to the human body and
nervous system which activate the universal life energy for
healing.
The next morning, Dr. Usui began the 17 mile walk to Mt. Kuramayama
to fast and meditate. Upon arriving at his destination, he
gathered 21 stones, sat down and put the stones in front of
him. Every morning he would throw one stone away. On the morning
of the 21st day, in the early hours before it was light, Dr.
Usui was in deep meditation when he noticed a bright light.
He wondered if this light were real. He opened his eyes; it
was still there and moved quickly toward him. He was frightened,
but willing to risk death for the secrets of healing. The
light struck him in the third eye and knocked him unconscious.
All of the information, symbols and how to use them began
to float by him in millions of brightly colored bubbles, stopping
in front of him long enough for him to commit the information
to memory. When he came back to full awareness, he remembered
everything that was shown to him.
Dr. Usui noticed that he was strong and full of energy, despite
his 21 day fast. "This is the first miracle", he
thought. Wanting to share this new information with the abbot,
he started the long journey back to the temple. On his way
down the hill, he severely stubbed his toe, tearing the toenail
back. He grabbed his toe and within a short while, noticed
it was completely healed. "This is the second miracle",
he thought.
He continued his journey and soon came upon a house which
offered meals to travelers. Noticing his hunger, he decided
to stop and break his fast. A man came out to take his order.
Dr. Usui ordered a nice meal. When the meal was ready the
man's daughter brought it to him. She was a pretty young girl
with a scarf tied like rabbit ears around her head. Dr. Usui
asked her why she had such a thing on her head. She told him
that she had a very bad toothache and could not travel the
long distance to town to have it fixed. He beckoned her to
come to him and placed his hands upon her face. After a few
moments she said, "Oh, kind monk, you make magic. My
tooth no longer hurts. Thank you". "This is the
third miracle", he thought.
After Dr. Usui finished his meal and was on the road back
to the temple, he noticed how wonderful he was feeling. There
were no ill effects of eating a large meal after an extended
fast. "This is the fourth miracle', he thought.
When he arrived at the temple, he was greeted by a young monk.
The boy told Dr. Usui that he was glad to see that he had
returned safely and that the old abbot was bed ridden in great
pain. Dr. Usui went directly to the abbot's cell and sat down
on the edge of the bed. He rested his hands on the abbot's
body while he told him all that he had learned. In a short
while, the abbot looked at him in surprise and said, "You
make magic; all of my pain is gone". "This is the
fifth miracle", Dr. Usui proclaimed.

this love for this man that i never even new and had this
learning thirst for this gift that eventually has encumbered
my life.
