I feel that contribution is a great way to live. In my field (Reiki) contribution is built-in and for that I'm grateful. To be able to give and receive, to bless and be blessed, to heal and be healed, to love and be loved is a priceless gift. My work allows me into the lives of others to share humanity, receive their stories and help people live their best potential. This is really a unique privilege. And from individuals I'm able to touch families, whole groups and society at large. Because Reiki fosters spiritual evolution, bodily, mental, and emotional health, has uses for water, food, environment, relationships and career, all in a natural and holistic way, it is an integral teaching for the 21st century.

MY EXCHANGE ENTRIES:

As Reiki originates in unity consciousness, so its practice also engenders the same. Let's understand how this happens. Earth and Celestial Ki are polar expressions, rather than being dualistic. There's a subtle distinction. Duality is one or the other, two oppositional forces that are separate. Water in the refrigerator is cold; water boiled in a kettle is hot. It's tough to jump from these directly to warm. Yet introduce polarity and the possibility of blending hot and cold appears. Polarity is the balance between two complementary states. It's the in-between state that can take us from duality to unity.   Read more...

The word 'energy' is bandied about so much these days. And it's highly relevant as it underlies life. It's important to also understand that there are different kinds of energy. Metabolic energy is what we use to fuel the physical body. There's psychic, emotional and mental energy. Then there's healing energy.

Even if we were to understand Reiki purely on energetic terms, the distinction still needs to be made that Reiki is spiritual energy, or rather a way to tap into it. What might that be? It's the all-encompassing, overarching common denominator.   Read more...
