Otoharo!
I have come to some recent realizations about what it is that we call this reiki energy.
When I attended Lazaris programs, we all went away from there elevated in our energy fields. One of the first things Lazaris explained is how energies interact. When two come together, they do:
1) the lesser energy becomes stronger
2) the stronger energy becomes lesser
3) they both shift so that they are equal
That information was interesting and occassionally in life it applies to something.
Suddenly now, it applies to how I recognize reiki energy. Reiki is a much higher energy than we are. So when we are in reiki energy, either reiki lessens, or we get stronger, or we equalize.
Back to Lazaris, he told his story at the beginning about being really attracted by the laughter of the young woman called Cindy. He has never been physical. So in his attraction he followed her lives for several lifetimes. Her laugh was always the same. In this lifetime, he communicated with her through the voice of her boy friend, Jach. That was startling to them, but they got used to it. He went with them to visit a friend in the hospital and while there he shook her hand. She suddenly rose up several inches off the bed. Startled them all! So Lazaris knew he had to step his energy down more. After doing this though, he stayed at that level. He remarked during a program that when we attended his program, We had to shift as "I am not going anywhere". Meaning, his energy was not shifting to be equal with us, so we had to get stronger. Period.
It is the same situation with reiki energy. Reiki is not going anywhere. To be in reiki energy, we have to shift to match the energy level of reiki.
Reiki is energy and only energy. It does not heal anything. Energy does not shift. It stays what it is. We have to do the changing. As reiki energy enters our bodies, it is our bodies which takes this energy and balances itself, restores itself to its nature. It is the body which heals itself. Reiki simply is.
