Day 34 - Reiki is Love is Joy is Life-Force Energy

~~ Sent the Love again ~~

Another Saturday morning has reached me, and I am deeply honored to have "sent" the Reiki flowing through my hands to all beings who will ever be within these quantum pages. I put quotations around"sent" because I believe there is an inherent Oneness among everyone, so I am really communing, or commune-icating this Energy through my hands for the highest and greatest good of all life. My book is slowly filling up. It feels so good, so joyous, so divine, so wonderful, that all these words to describe it fall short.

Reiki is a Japanese word that means Universal Life-Force Energy, or Energy from God, or Energy from the Divine

I have been doing Reiki, have been trained to the level of Reiki Master (but the word Master is something that makes me laugh, because being never be attained by a weekend workshop and attunement) in both the Usui and Karuna traditions. Reiki has totally changed my life. I first got Reiki 1 and 2 back in 1994, and then I drove to Wichita with a friend of mine and got my Reiki "Master" training. Then, in 2001 I got Karuna Reiki(tm) training, which was a really amazing weekend. Since then, I have been doing Reiki off and on. It has always been a part of my life.

I have also been trained in Quantum Touch, which is a really AWESOME modality for transmitting Energy. In QT, you use your breath and your intention to pool up Life-Force into your hands, and then place your hands around body parts to help lift up the vibration within it. In QT, all healing is self-healing. All we do is create a "resonance" or vibration around the body part, and then let the body heal itself. I read the book years ago and loved it. Then I spent a weekend in Springfield Missouri a few years ago. I had a spiritual encounter with a Master of Self-Realization Fellowship that is too profound, too incredible, to overwhelming to try and piece together in words. It's impossible to describe.

Anyway, what I am trying to say, is that I believe that Reiki IS Love IS Light IS Joy IS Energy IS God IS Goddess IS The Divine. It is all one in the same. I like to call it Love, because I love Love! Love is a beautiful word. So when I say, I "send the Love," I mean I send the Reiki, the Universal Life-Force Energy. It is not emotional Love - it is a Transpersonal Love, a Love beyond all my dramas, relationships, mistakes, failures, triumphs - beyond all my "stuff" - beyond all my emotional baggage - beyond it all. It is the Force that holds this magical dream of the Universe together for our learning and enjoyment.

I merge and melt and transcend when I breathe in deeply and imagine the center of my chest rising to higher vibrations of consciousness. Then I let-go and allow that Transcendent Love, that Energy, to flow through my mind, body, heart, hands - and into all the people who will ever be within this book - and MOST IMPORTANTLY - onward to every leaf, every blade of grass, every chunk of soil, ever molecule of water - to all Life on this planet. It is a simple technique of continuous breathing that anyone can do:

Breathe in deep and long, then open, expand, and pull your heart center into the Universe. Then breathe out and send that Expanded Love sailing through your hands - to anyone in any time, place, or dimension. Feel for any sensations in your hands. Focus deeply, yet in a relaxed way, upon them. Keep breathing continuously with no pause between in and out breaths, but relax the breath if you get a little dizzy. Just do your best to keep the breath flowing.

I deeply and quantomly affirmatively pray that this Energy, this Love, that I and others transmit, for any purpose, IS helping to open hearts and lift up the Life-Force of thousands, even millions of people to the simple power of Love. And it is helping to open the power of Compassion in more and more people everywhere. Compassion for ourselves first, then compassion for all beings.

The house is still quiet - it is the calm before the storm. Any minute now, Andrew and Sky will be up and around - getting wild and goofy and the day will begin. Liam will need breakfast. Laundry will need to be switched. The kitchen cleaned. May the Love I feel now, tingling so joyously within me - may this Love be translated and communicated into this house, into every piece of manual labor that I complete this weekend.
