hmm all very interesting. I send love constantly to my brother, but i have only actually sent him a distance healing once. I felt the energy draw through very strongly. I wonder though... because in my minds eye i see him as he was in life so maybe the reiki goes to him for when he was alive....
If we can feel no energy after a persons death then where does the energy go? if to another plane or universe or to at some point another incarnation... could the energy be drawn through us from there?
Also, maybe they dont need to draw energy at point of death but maybe are able to draw it once again after incarnation. These points are not necessarily something i believe. just a wondering thought. i dont know?
