corndodger,
/*\ Namaste :-}}
I agree with much of what you say about use of personal energy - and that energy work must be highly "respected" for there is more power in thought-forms than sometimes even experienced energy workers realize
>:-}}
- I also know what Takata taught - having trained with one of the Masters she taught -
- however there is a certain amount of discrepancy when it comes to the notion that the reiki goes where it is "supposed to" -
- and I suspect Usui Sensei might suggest that Intent and Mindfulness are in fact key - I suggest this in view of his Reiju-ho practices which are Mindful if they are anything
>;-}}
- As a Teacher once observed: reiki does not always go where it is Intended - thus the report that "blockages" are not always reached by reiki treatments when opening blockages is the wish of the recipient and\or the "diagnosis" of the practitioner who simply 'applies reiki" in some haphazard fashion
>:-}}
- this may be accounted for on at least two fronts - inadequate preparation and Mindfulness on the part of the Practitioner and\or non-acceptance or incomplete acceptance of the energy work by the recipient - whose Mindfulness and Intent are also Key
>:-}}
- I have enjoyed your observations and discussion.
reiki all around,
all blessings,
firekeeper
