If you've done Reiki 1, you can already channel Reiki.If you've done level 2, you've been introduced to distance Reiki, symbols, mantras and a more intuitive style of healing.So why go on? Why become a Reiki Master? What else is there to learn? Is it only for people who wish to teach Reiki? Is it simply an ego boost? This articles looks at six key ways - some practical, most spiritual - that becoming a Reiki Master can change your life.Work and Teach with Reiki,Okay, it's true this is a big reason why many people wish to become a Reiki Master, so let's look at the details.
This would include sessions of reiki self healing and a deepening of ones personal knowledge of the symbols, what they mean and how to use them.You would then progress to the Reiki Two course and approach it in the same way. And then finally you would take the Reiki Master Course.At that point you will be qualified to teach reiki to others.But on the way you will have discovered an ability within yourself, which we all have in a latent form, to heal both yourself and others.Some claim that a Reiki Master can be made in 48 hours and yes one could take the master attunement in that time period, but you will miss out on all of the vital information and practice which is in the reiki one and two courses the very foundations of Reiki.
A better bet is to start at the level of reiki one and then move up the line as I have described above. The minimum amount of time required to become a Reiki Master is about 3 months. And that would mean practicing each day and carrying out self healing each day.It may seem like a long time, but each day you will be finding out more about yourself and increasing your ability to use reiki with confidence and certainty.Reiki training is available in a number of different forms.Traditionally Reiki was taught in small classes or workshops for each level and this form of training can still be found.Some of the drawbacks are that the training is crammed into a couple of days and the classes can still be quite expensive.
Common Topics Taught:Master Reiki Symbol. This is the most powerful and profound of the Reiki symbols and, apart from being a great healing tool, it is designed to help connect you to the 'Great Bright Light' - the literal translation of it's Japanese name. In other words, it helps connect you to something bigger than yourself, helps you energetically expand, helps you enter what I call the 'flow': a state of oneness with the world and everything in it.Master Symbol Mantra. All sound carries an energetic vibration. Mantras and carefully chosen sounds that create profound energetic shifts both in an individual and the world. Working with the Master Symbol mantra, you'll experience what is often an exhilarating energetic shift.
Instead I went onto the beach, lifted my face to the rain and totally enjoyed the moment. It was one of those moments where you feel totally connected with the Universe and know that there is something much larger than "mankind" running the show.Reiki brings a deeper sense of awareness and gratitude.As a Master, I believe students learn more by watching you (and your life), than by listening to you and your words.
Energy Awareness. Here you will learn to better feel the ebbs and flows of energy, to feel energy outside of yourself.Advanced healing techniques, for instance psychic surgery and the like.Connecting to Spirit / The Flow. Everything you learn is in some way geared towards this blissful skill! Shift Your Energetic Vibration.One of the great advantages of shifting your energetic vibration is that it will bring you enhanced clarity in your life (for a detailed account of this, please read my recent article, R + M = C!).This clarity will help you make better decisions and will get rid of the angst often associated with indecision.The next critical reason you want to shift your energetic vibration is that it will bestow on both you and the world (!) greater inner calm, happiness and balance.
While I don't like the terms 'responsibility' and 'duty', I think it is a great thing if we can contribute to the wellbeing of the planet.Since our personal energetic vibration makes a difference, improving it is a blessing to the planet.Improve Your Meditation.As humans, we are programmed to move towards pleasure and away from pain.For meditators this is often a problem because we can so easily be sidetracked by the stream of 'bigger and better' plans our mind constantly offers us.In other words, it tells us that if we will only listen to it a little longer it can show us a way to either experience greater pleasure or avoid pain.
When your students ask particular questions in class about sickness and how to deal with clients, your awareness will be theory based only.Remember back to when you were learning to drive... the theory and the practical go hand in hand.... just having the theory does not mean you know how to drive. Also having driven an automatic car, the next one that comes along may be a manual one, a 4 wheel drive or even a large truck.... Each will bring their own learning's!
True Mastery comes when you interact with clients, and in the moment have to make decisions and give advice that makes a difference. I advise students that their real learning begins the moment they take a client who they do not know. It is easy practicing on family and friends... the true learning comes with a walk in client you do not know.You gain awareness about your own ability, your confidence, knowledge, and ability to help others... you also get real life feedback about the Reiki you have given and how it feels.
Charity Work,If doing charity work is your thing, then becoming a Reiki master is a great step in the right direction.Not only will you gain access to far more opportunities due to your new credentials, you will also be able to empower anyone you meet with the gift of Reiki.As an example, right now I am working on a trip to Africa that aims to attune up to 1000 locals. For that purpose I need as many Reiki Masters as possible to accompany me.Could you be one of them?Whether anyone can become a Reiki Master in the truest sense of the term is debatable.Certainly the founder of Reiki, Mikao Usui, never saw himself as a realized master of the art.What Master Level really does, therefore, is initiate you into the realm of Reiki Mastership. It teaches your techniques and skills that you will then need to go away and work on for months, years and perhaps even the rest of your life.In that sense, you never really feel that you've 'made it' as a Reiki Master.But, with consistent practice, you do notice changes in yourself - sometimes big, sometimes small - that ultimately make a huge difference to the way you experience the world.
