What religions or philosophies of life do you believe in?
i was born and raised for the most part as a Roman Catholic but have always found myself uncomfortable with any 'standard' religion. i believe that there is a God and no matter what u call God, God is still -well-God ..lol..and it doesnt matter what we call God in the end. i have found that there are useful parts and pieces of knowledge in almost any religion..The only religions i can say i dont have an interest to learn anything from are the ones that teach subjegation is required by god because of your gender or caste ..or those that teach that one group of people is better than another...

Practitioner
How did you find Reiki and how long have you been involved with Reiki?
i found rei ki on a first date about 10 years ago ..lol.. i kinda stored the info in the back of my mind and turned it around briefly when my grandmother was terminally ill but i never had a chance to really expand into it before she died .. one day, 3 years later shortly after her husband died, i suddenly decided i had to diet (i had put on 100 lbs when grandma died) and it was also "TIME" to do something about rei ki and healing in general ..so i went to the New Age bookstore and bought a book on shamanism to add to my collection ..lol..and picked up a copy of their class schedule which had-u got it-Rei ki classes listed
