If you believe that the universal life force is indeed universal then you will understand that this energy is everywhere, including the middle man as FK puts it ..there is no other middle man other than the one that mankind has invented for its own purpose. They need to form the shape of a deity/deities so that people have soemthing tangible to attach religous tenets to......religion has its place in spiritualty but we all perceive it differently whether Jewish, Christian or whatever ...reiki is the same universal energy that all relgions write about and have in their own faiths. I dont think anyone can argue that there is this wonderful universal energy but I do think it is dagerous to imagine (after all that is all we can do) that there are agents out there who recieve our thoughts and prayers and then change them half way acorss as in a middle man so that prayers become unmet and unanswered. If you think about reikis intent and the gassho meditataion this is very much like a prayer..before anyyone goes into the third act of La Traviata about this statement can i say that "WE ALL KNOW REIKI IS NOT A RELIGION AND i AM NOT SUPPOSING IN ANY WAY THAT IT IS". Being reiki is about using (possibly wrong word) the universal energy ...this does not require a religious attachment/label or marble statue in a chruch ...
