walknred,

- for myself?? I think the second Reiki 'treatment' he took it upon himself to administer was out of line (he did not have your permission to begin)
- even if you were OK with his 'initiation' based on some intuition he claims (which may have just as likely been familiarity with you) and know him well as a Tai Chi instructor, practitioners must ask permission first (though obviously not everyone agrees with me on this)
- as for attunements other than those received after hands-on training and practices?? Forget them! And, most especially stuff put on DVDs, CDs, etc.
- does intuition play a part in Reiki?? Intuition plays a part of some sort in almost all human activity - it is just that some folks do not put much stock in it or do anything to try and develop their 'other senses'

- and others rely too heavily on what they deem is intuition and may dismiss or ignore facts which may be available to clarify an issue
- hope this helps
