​Midas Star is not ordinarily taught by Reiki masters. This is because it did not originate with traditional Reiki symbols midas-star-atunement visualized by Mikao Usui.
It is a symbol which has developed with the evolution of Reiki.Like all other symbols,this too is simply a key to channelize intent.
Also, like the other symbols there is a need for its atunement in order to activate it.
What is Midas Star?
We all have heard the story of King Midas. Hehad been granted a unique gift that whatever he touched would turn into gold.
Midas Star Atunement
The story also brought out the fine line between greed and desire.
It is important to desire a lot of money and abundance but never become too greedy. We should only desire as much as we need for ourselves and those around us.
Who does not want to be comfortable and happy? Almost all of us pray for that, don’t we?
There is absolutely nothing wrong in that.What we need is to strike a fine balance and not let greed become the overriding factor.
When practiced regularly, this symbol can start showing positive results from day one.
Hence it becomes very important that the atunement is done properly and the procedure of using it thereafter is clear while we practice it.
Midas Star atunement is done during or after level 2 of Reiki.
However, as brought out earlier, since this is not a symbol of traditional Reiki as taught by Mikao Usui, not many Reiki masters talk about it.
You can read more about it HERE
What is important is to have the right intent and practice it regularly. Thisliterally draws abundance towards you like a magnet.
It is also used to being comfort and riches in others life, bringing in good karma due to the virtue of selflessness.
In case you wish to receive FREE Midas Star atunement please contact me HERE.
During and after the atunement, you will be also given the procedure and guidance about how to include it in your Reiki practice.
Midas Star will bring richness, joy and abundance in your own life as well as those around you and will definitely help you achieve success in your existing business as well as any new endeavor that you embark upon.

any Reiki Practitioners often ask me why Reiki Stopped Working for them. They encounter a phase when suddenly, for no apparent reason they feel that the flow of Reiki has stopped and they see no results.
This leads to getting disheartened and they often stop practicing Reiki.
Nothing can be more disheartening than this. I am often called upon to do the scanning to see and analyze what has gone wrong.
Remember - Reiki is a source; an unlimited supply of highest
spiritual power. It is the loving wisdom of generations. Hence there can be no limit to its benefits. Your techniques of practicing Reiki can therefore improve by understanding what has gone wrong byfollowing some simple guidelines.

Top Reasons Why Reiki Stopped Working

The Environment - Ensure that the room where you do the Reiki treatments is clean. It should havea good circulation of fresh air. An orderly and clean room is helpful in repelling the negative energies that tend to collect around clutter.
Cleansing of room with the power symbol Chu-ko-rei is very important before and after treatment I order to from negative energies
The Client - Ensure that your client is in a receptive state of mind. This is perhaps the most important factor and hence you must put the client in a deep trance before starting any healing.
Blockages in Own Energy Flow - When there is a blockage in your own energy flow, you cannot expect to heal others. Therefore. you must do Reiki on yourself before starting on the client
Thinking Patterns - Correct your own thought pattern and always do the AOG correctly and deliberately. Also follow it up with a well thought out positive intent.
The Practice - Giving Reiki is not about healing alone but is actually a spiritual experience designed to act on the Aura. Most practitioners start focusing more on physical body. Since it passes through you, it has to affect you hence it is very important to do grounding correctly. When this is not done correctly, it creates energy blockage in yourself which not only diminishes the flow but also stop having effect on the client.

If you have experienced such issues contact me HERE.
Apply for a special FREE SESSION for energizing your body to remove the blockages by opening the pathways for Reiki to flow unhindered. This will also improve your treatment sessions.

Finding Happiness is elusive to most of us. When you look around yourselves to see how many people appear to be truly happy, you would be amazed to note there are so few of them.
I was driving along the road and looked around to observe faces of people around me, and was surprised. Not a single one of them was smiling; or laughing, or even talking!
Most were looking preoccupied with their thoughts, just staring blankly with a lot of anxiety. Some were angry and had stress written all over their faces. They were most likely wondering about when they would be able to move.
All around us people seek ways forfinding happiness but hardly anyone is happy these days. Leave alone laughter, they don’t even smile.
And that makes me wonder why people are not happy or what does it take to make people happy?
All of them could take the time off to acknowledge each other. Maybe smiled at someone or listen to music. But no, theychose to stay focused on the fact that they were not able to keep up about something in the future! We let go of the present moment for something in the future. This is the key to our unhappiness
Isnt that such a shame?
Key to Finding Happiness
People are unhappy because they do not live in the moment. It is as simple as that.
They are also unhappy because they have far too many unfulfilled desires they do not count up on what they have but are focused upon what they do not have. Desiring more or less, is something that is a part of our genetic makeup as well as the circumstances. But despite that, we have a huge window where we can find happiness by deliberately and consciously controlling our urges happily.
Strictly speaking being happy or unhappy is almost 50% dependent upon our genes but the rest of 50% is more about how we take our life in our day to day routine and a small part of it is about the circumstances.
Most of us equate happiness with the amount of money that we have. This is one reason we are always in the pursuit of owning more and more, little realizing that if it was just money that would make us happy why would so many rich people be unhappy?
Marilyn Monroe had everything – wealth, beauty, sex appeal, popularity, and fame all the ingredients that many see as a mark of happiness but then why did she end her life in suicide?
Voltaire, most infamous for his infidelity, has appeared to have said on his death bed – “I am so lost! Oh, I wish I was never born.”
Millionaire Jay Gould too said his last words – ” I am the most miserable man on earth.”
In reality, wealth, power, beauty or fame can neither make someone happy or unhappy. All these are external factors. Real happiness comes from within us. It is more about our inner conditioning.
The Truth about Finding Happiness
Happiness is more about nurturing relationships and it comes from mindfulness, compassion and gratitude. While these are the qualities that you are born with, they can also be inculcated. You can learn to develop these abilities from me by writing HERE.
These are not commercial classes, the entire training is FREE and these are one to one real time training on Skype sessions with neither any offers of sale nor any between the line deals.
We are often thinking about the past, or planning for our future. What about now???
Happiness is about living the now moment to its fullest. Write to me to knowwhat is holding you from finding Happiness.

​Using Reiki for love and achievement of goal is one of the most important reasons that people want to know details of learning Reiki. 
While it is true that we can use Reiki for attaining all our objectives related to love and achievement of goals, it is not true that it can be done in a quick-fix or in any short cut method.
This is so because there is no magical key or the symbol that can achieve a specific desire overnight.  Traditional Reiki had only four symbols which were used for purposes that were nobler.  They aimed at increasing love, peace and harmony in the environment.  And so they are bound to work.
However it is a materialistic world now.  With more emphasis on satisfying needs of self consumption, we find more emphasis on making money and gains, with the result that there is an increased intolerance in the world and a definite deterioration of relationships too.
Therefore, for those  seeking to learn using Reiki for love and achievement of goal there is only one formula - practice Reiki sincerely for a number of days,  make it a part of your life and only then will you see the changes  taking place around you.
A Reiki master with a noble heart can do it on your behalf too, but you need to ask for Reiki and affirm as guided by the master.
Remember there are no shortcuts, magical symbols, formulae or charms.  Only a change from within can bring about positive results.
Methods of Using Reiki for love and achievement of goal
If you really want to bring in positive changes in your life practice regularly and follow the following principles -

• Make very positive affirmations - give a deliberate thought and be positive.
• Think of overall good - only when you let go small things in life and think of overall good of everyone in the environment around you, can you think of any improvement in relationships.
• Learn to manifest - manifestation is a very powerful technique that can get you what you want and bring all make all your desires come true.  For learning manifestation you can contact me HERE.

 

​Theta Healing can yield instantaneous results as it affects changes at all levels - physical, emotional, mental and spiritual.  The speed at which it heals can be most dramatic as changes occur on the Core, Genetic, past life as well as Soul level.
It helps in clearing limiting and negative beliefs from their root cause by programming the mind. This affects our interpretations, thoughts and reactions in a way that inevitably affect our physical health emotional well being and. It thus enables us to lead a harmonious and fulfilling life. Theta healing can enable us to live to our full potential.
Negative beliefs and limiting thoughts that are stored in our subconscious mind have a profound disempowering effect in our lives. While most of us try to consciously think positive we continuously encounter patterns, experiences, and circumstances that prove to be counterproductive to our happiness and progress. This happens because of the beliefs that are stored deep into the subconscious mind create blocks that barricade you from attracting and creating what you desire.
The Theta healing technique
Theta healing involves replacing negative feelings and beliefs, and programming the subconscious mind with positive ones.  It involves identifying the root cause of various types of issues and allowing the connected memories around those events to be released and healed.
These changes in belief systems can positively affect mental and emotional feelings that have a visible effect in the overall health of the physical body.
When positive beliefs and feelings replace the negative ones at the subconscious level, it can lead to a quantum physical change in life.
However, Theta Healing is only done on free will and choice; therefore it also requires a client acceptance.
A Theta healing practitioner enters a meditative state and connects with the seventh aura layer that connects to the deep seated memories and replaces the limiting beliefs with beneficial ones.  
This can be done remotely and clients can experience positive changes after just one session. However, all cases are not alike and the frequency and number of sessions would depend upon the amount of negative belief attached to your subconscious mind.
If you want to experience the positive power of Theta Healing and feel lighter and happier, book a session HERE.
You are sure to see the positive change in you and ask for more.

I have come across many people who were "lured" into buying crystals by their teachers; who quite often give them one sided information about their magical healing properties.
They subsequently find out that the crystals not only did not work the way they expected, but at times even created a negative impact!
Why is this so?
There are many reasons. I will dwell upon just one of them -
Crystal Therapy is Not a Magical Fix.
Many people expect that once energized, the crystals would bring about drastic changes in their life by improving their health or whatever solution they are seeking.
Remember, crystals CANNOT be a fix-all solution.
Do not expect overnight miracles and dramatic results by simply putting on ring or a pendant or placing a few colored stones in your water jug overnight. 
Crystals work "with" you, and not "for" you.
You have to be worthy of that crystal and for this you must look within and see how your approach to life is. For example of you have relationship issues at home or work cannot expect crystals to drastically change people around you.
The crystals will work only when you have the courage to look “within” and try to change yourself or your outlook. Your changed behavior (e.g. being more tolerant, forgiving, resilient, self confident, etc) and outlook will then bring about changes in others. The crystal will then work “FOR” you.  Therefore, remember the sequence- it starts with positive changes WITHIN YOU.
Are you ready to accept your own faults or bring about changes in yourself?
If not, is better not to spend time and money because it's "not working" will further bring negativity instead of positivity in you. It is not a remote control which you can use lying on the couch!
I will give you a rather simplistic example here which is very relevant.
A pregnant woman is naturally interested in ensuring a healthy delivery.
Right?
So she does an instant “certified crystal healer" course and learns all about how magical powers of crystals from the glib talk and how it will benefit her would be child.  
She is also made to buy a whole list of  gemstones,  as recommended  by her “knowledgeable” teacher who asks her to put some in her  medicine bag, wear one a pendant, wear a crystal bag around the tummy, or place them in a water jug overnight before drinking the next morning.
So now that she has the crystal magic going, should she stop taking prenatal vitamins? 
And because she has that magical necklace hanging in front of her belly, can she eat whatever she wants?  And maybe indulge in a little alcohol, now and then?
How wrong would that be!
Crystals are to be used to magnify your hard work and intention and NOT as a substitute.
To achieve desired results, you have to make them work WITH YOU, not instead of you
Therefore, a pregnant lady will definitely achieve better results if she laid emphasis on being less stressed by do regular breathing exercises, meditating, being tolerant and overlooking others faults, eating healthy food, etc. This would make her more “in synch” with the energy of the crystals and would get her magnified benefits from them.
Knowledge Vs Practice
Many students get back to me with "Sir, I have done third level Usui Reiki and have also done courses in Karuna Reiki, Panic healing, Shamanic healing, acupressure, advanced crystal healing, etc, etc but I don't feel any change around me.
So I tell them, decide upon any one thing and practice it well.
Remember, there is nothing that you can do with crystals alone and yet there nothing you can’t do without them either!
They are merely the tools that can help you in magnifying whatever you practice. 

Deep breathing is a proven method for achieving complete relaxation. It is also the best way to start a self-hypnosis session.
Our normal breathing is generally shallow and therefore it is also rapid and confined to slight expansion and contracting the chest.
If you count your breath you will find that you are taking almost 15 to 20 breathing cycles per minute and there is hardly any movement of the chest.  Deep diaphragm breathing on the other hand involves movement both – the chest as well as the diaphragm (abdomen)  and is generally so slow that each cycle takes almost 15 seconds i.e. you are breathing in just 4 to 5 cycles per minute;  and with practice sometimes just 2 or 3 cycles!
This type of slow and deep breathing is rhythmic and acts like a “trigger” which initiates the relaxation response within us.  This can be viewed as opposite of adrenaline triggered "flight or fight" response.
It also ensures that the lungs are supplied with more oxygen that leads to many benefits as it brings down the heartbeats leading to muscular relaxation and increased flow of blood to the extremities.
Therefore, start self Hypnosis with a deep breathing exercise.

• Inhale slowly through your nose and start counting in your mind as you breathe in.
• Hold your breath for the same count.
• Exhale slowly from your mouth for double that count or up to the count that is comfortable for you.
• Wait for a few seconds and start all over again.

Remember that this is not a competition. Therefore, instead of focusing on how much you can endure, focus more on keeping your breathing pattern comfortable and relaxing.
If you feel uncomfortable, you must stop for some time and then continue.
Take five to seven (2 minutes) of such deep breaths as a preparation of a self hypnosis session. This can be followed up with progressive relaxation.
Progressive Relaxation
This is a system in which you have to focus separately on the various parts of your body relaxing the muscles as you proceed progressively. This leads to a relaxation of the entire body within 5 to 7 minutes.
It is only once you are fully relaxed you can enter the realms of your astral plane and proceed with self hypnosis.

Understand What Being Psychic Is All About   
Being psychic naturally deals with something more than your basic five senses.  These five senses deal with what is around us. Whereas the extra sensory perception that we are talking about deals with what is deep inside!
To get into that state we have to first become experts at having our five senses under control.
To be a psychic you have to tap on to the extra sensory perceptions and you simply cannot do that unless you withdraw from the five senses and blank them out.
​Remain Grounded   
We are all born psychics; the only problem why we lose that ability is that as we grow up, we are bombarded with far too much information from all and we drift from within to what is outside of us. 
Just as a newborn child, the first step to honing your psychic abilities is to get grounded. 
Detach yourself from all the distractions that exist around you and go back within.
Clarity of Vision   
Before you even start on this journey of understanding the interplay of the tremendous cosmic forces, it is important to have a clear vision as to why at all you even want to be a psychic! 
While it is very good to have tangible results appearing from a mass of intangible opportunities that surround us, unless you are focused upon the overall good of humanity, it is unlikely that you would succeed in your mission of dwelling within the layers of your subconscious mind.
Meditate Sincerely  
Meditation is the key to making you withdraw from the other senses and helps you to access the deepest realms of your psychic abilities. 
It is only when you withdraw from the five senses that you can tune on to the messages your subconscious mind or the psychic within us trying to send.
Thorough Training  
Many of us meditate a lot but do not succeed at becoming psychics.  This is because you cannot expect the results to come soon.  It needs a regular and thorough practice.
Importance of Third Eye Chakra Meditation   
Just the way our eyes give us a view of the world around us, it is the third eye that gives us the insight into the abundant intelligence of the Universe of which our subconscious mind is a small part. 
It is the third eye chakra that opens up the layers of the subconscious mind to enable you to grasp the information that you are seeking.
The Importance of Training  
Needless to say any psychic would like to get answers to some or the other problem.
To get the right answer it is important to frame the right question at the right time during your meditative cycle.  This is why training is so important.
Trusting Your Instincts
Developing Psychic abilities is a gradual process in which you have to learn to trust your instincts.
I have trained many people in many holistic principles and procedures including development of the psychic abilities. 
However, a guru can only go as far as training and guiding is concerned; it is finally the individual who has to work hard,   practice hard and   nurture these teachings.

Much has been written about the various symbols of Reiki. The theory of almost everything that one needs to know is available a plenty in the form of books as well as Internet.  But what is not available so easily is the “inner knowledge” that comes only with a diligent practice.
It is this very reason that many people are not able to achieve the results that they expect - because they have not practiced sufficiently and all their theoretical knowledge is actually of no use when it comes to energy healing.
Therefore let me dwell a bit about what “Hon-Sha-Ze-Sho-Nen” - the 3rd symbol of Usui Reiki is all about.
To those who have been attuned in second level of Reiki, this is often explained how it is drawn and pronounced. 
In reality, it is much more than that.
For those who practice it merely as a ritual, it is something that will help in making a connection between you and the person who is going to receive Reiki;  but for a true practitioner of Reiki it is the key to their entire practice. 
In a Holistic manner, it is the symbol that connects our little universe (self) to the great universe (existence).
It is a symbol of multi-dimensional connectivity that aims at the existence of the sum total of energy and hence transgresses time and space. It hence encompasses all living and nonliving things of the universe.
Using this symbol empowers a Reiki healer to purify karma (first) and thereafter try to achieve distant healing. Not many Reiki maters emphasis on this aspect.
In physical terms, it has a direct effect on the Swadhisthana (naval) and the Moladadhar (root) Chakras (signifying the relationship between the “self” and the “roots”).
This symbol is therefore used for the following:

• Distance Healing
• Spanning the time and space dimensions
• Karma Healing
• Reducing Trauma
• Improving genetic constitution by altering the DNA.

Instead of using like clockwork focusing on how to draw the symbol, it should be used more as a tool to open the “windows” to move into the time and space dimensions and heal specific issues.
Sadly, most Reiki healers focus on how it should be drawn (vertical first, horizontal next etc) which in reality has no meaning.
Remember, having a key is of no use if you do not know which lock to open with that!
 

There are no special credentials required to learn Reiki. It is more about a way of life rather than something meant only for healing.
The only thing you need to become a Reiki channel is selflessness, natural compassion and a willingness to practice regularly.
And it is these very qualities that set one Reiki master apart from the other.
Unfortunately these days, quite a few Reiki practitioners are increasingly viewing themselves as health care providers and are themselves confused about the basics of Reiki.  Therefore it is not uncommon to hear - "I healed him/her of... (Problem) in just... (Days)"
In short, they have forgotten that they are just mediums for the corrective flow of Reiki and it is NOT THEM but the divine Reiki energy that heals!
Which also means that they cannot (and should not) either take credit or give a time frame for healing. All they should focus on is being humble, acknowledge the divine Reiki's healing power (not their own) and ensure that the person who comes to them goes back with positivity.
Positivity can never come if a practitioner doesn't have the compassion and a sense of oneness with the universal bond.
I have seen Reiki practitioners refusing to heal or teach someone who cannot "pay their fees".  Reiki, like air and water, belongs to no one and is free for all the living beings in this universe.
Yes, they should charge; NOT for Reiki, but just for their time and effort. And of course, never ask so much that a person cannot give. It's a positive energy exchange- which means, it should also create positivity.
So how do we evaluate whom to go for learning Reiki or for a session of Reiki healing?
Since Reiki has emerged not from schools and colleges but from the grass-roots of humanity, there are many varying perspectives as well as practicing styles. All of them are good in their own way.
While there are differences in these styles, a few common factors indicate the authenticity as well as the genuineness of a Reiki practitioner.

• Do not go solely by the possession of certificates or the photographs with the well known personalities. A true Reiki practitioner will never boast by showing how well connected he or she is!
• Ask a few specific questions before deciding upon someone to attune you or heal you.
• Look for a person who has experience in Reiki healing.  Most so called Reiki practitioners are "teaching" as opposed to healing.

This is so because Reiki is not about the amount of theoretical knowledge, which is available aplenty. It is more about development of attitude, intent and intuition.
Teaching after reading various resources is very easy. What sets a good Reiki practitioner apart is the amount he or she practices healing.
Therefore ask these questions-
Q-1.   Does he/she practice Reiki every day?     
Q-1.   Do they also hold healing sessions regularly? (Many insist that you learn Reiki from them and then heal yourself - thus shifting the onus of healing to you!).
Insist on a healing session first and see that if it makes any difference in your condition.
Stop and think!
If a Reiki master cannot heal you, what will he or she attune you with which would help you heal yourself?
Also insist on them to describe the process and structure of their class content.
Many people don't tell this on phone and insist on personal visit which means that they want to "rope you in". Many do not want to explain and “waste" their time. Such people have done more harm to the cause of Reiki than they realize.
Attunement is a very very sacred ceremony which can only be done properly if it is through a proper channel. When attunement is done properly, the development of other qualities takes place naturally.
Therefore, spending a little time and asking these questions is one of the best ways to make up your mind before you decide upon the right person to be your Reiki Master.
 
 

Reiki is not something new or something that started with Dr Mikao Usui; it existed much before that.  But it was only after Dr Mikao Usui started using it as a methodology for healing it gained some prominence.

​Since then, we have seen it evolving too many levels in many forms. 

Some of well known variants are the Tibetan Reiki, and Seichem Reiki which are ancient forms of healing.  But there are other new forms of Reiki too that have evolved after Dr Mikao Usui’s Reiki. 

While quite a few are just a selling gimmick in the form of USP,   quite a few of them have been universally accepted.

One of them is Karuna Reiki. It has been started by William Lee Rand, who received his Reiki Mastership (in traditional Usui Reiki) in as late as 1989 from one of the students of Hawayo Takata of the Mikao Usui linage.

Many people are confused between the procedures and symbols taught in various lineages of Reiki and some of them think they are different!
In reality they are not.
​
To understand this, there are a few things that you should know about Karuna Reiki.  These are -

• Karuna Reiki has evolved out of Usui Reiki and hence, it is not to be practiced in isolation but as a continuance of Usui Reiki.  This also implies that only a person who has been attuned and has been practicing Usui Reiki can proceed with Karuna Reiki as an "add on".
• Reiki Grandmasters are expected to attune their students for Karuna Reiki ONLY if they have attained the Usui Reiki Masters level.
• Unlike Usui Reiki where all the symbols are used for healing and/or meditation, in Karuna Reiki, the symbols are used selectively and each one of them has a special sound effect. Therefore, while you can practice Usui Reiki as a form of silent meditation or healing, Karuna Reiki involves. Karuna Reiki is all about vibrations and compassion.
• The Karuna Reiki symbols are a mix of Japanese as well as Indian traditional meditative techniques. The word Karuna itself has its origin in Hindu scriptures.
• While carrying out a session of Karuna Reiki for healing, it is important first to use all the Usui Reiki symbols and follow up with the specific Karuna Reiki symbols AND vibrations as an additional tool to achieve a higher purpose and better results.

Cho Ku Rei is one of the most important symbols in Reiki because it is like a switch that opens the flow of energy.  

It is very important in the practice of Reiki as it boosts the energy that is channeled and is associated with protection, empowerment and a focused flow of energy.

There are many ways to use this symbol while carrying out Reiki treatments as well as initiations. Reiki practitioners start and end their sessions with this symbol as it enhances the energy flow and takes the entire proceedings to a new level.

However, there are quite a few contrary views about how to use it.  Some practitioners (even those who have done their third level) often raise these two most common doubts, so I thought I put it down here so that everyone who wishes to seek similar clarifications benefits from it.

What if I don't use Cho Ku Rei or any other symbol? Will it affect my practice?

Well, the answer is simple.  While Cho Ku Rei and symbols enhance the power of Reiki and helps it flow in a more focused manners, not using it will in NO WAY be a hindrance. 

After all, these symbols are taught only in the second level and you would see many a miraculous results even in the level 1 treatment.  It all boils down to the sincerity of effort. Symbols are just the keys to open the doors but what if the doors are already open!

Using Cho Ku Rei and other symbols after you have done your level 2 only goes to give a boost to the entire process of healing by making you focused. I have seen many practitioners are able to focus very well even in the first level and get better results than those who do not practice regularly despite being attuned to higher levels.

What if I draw the Cho Ku Rei symbol clockwise instead of anticlockwise?

There is a lot of confusion regarding this, because every Reiki master teaches his own way and their linage often continues in that manner.

The traditional Usui Reiki method teaches Cho Ku Rei as drawn anticlockwise but there is no harm if you use it clockwise.

Some of them even teach it in both ways saying one is to draw out energy and the other is to fill in.

While they may be right in their own manner, I personally feel that it is best to do it the way you have been taught by our own Reiki teacher. 

This is because everyone has different experiences while practicing Reiki AND most importantly, it is the way your initiation has been carried out that makes all the difference.
​
Therefore, do not get confused by various texts and advices. Just remember-

• The manner in which you were initiated by your Reiki teacher is the right way (for you).
• These rituals have no meaning; what finally makes the entire difference is the SINCERITY & INTENT.

 

Believe it or not, we all have our own spiritual guides who take us through our life from the beginning to its end. Listening to them and following their advice at a time when you are at any crossroad of life is the best favors that you can do to yourself. 

Why some of us do not feel them is because we do not stop by to listen.  When we talk of the terms like intuition, consciousness, higher self or Angels we are actually referring to these guides. 

One of the reasons why most do not ask the guides for guidance is because we feel that they have guided us wrongly at some point or the other.  By this, I mean that maybe you feel that at some point in your life, your intuition has lead you to a wrong juncture. 

Or so you feel.

Therefore, the first thing that one has to understand is to have faith. 
If you have been feeling let down at sometime then try to look at it as a way which probably was the best for you. After all, how do you know what is in store in the future! 
 
So how does one go about seeking guidance from your spiritual guides? One such method is to follow these steps -

• Start believing and let go of your doubting belief systems that are in place.
• Go into a deep meditative state or “Yoga Nitra” and invoke your guide. It could be in the form of bright light with a face to it or someone you know or a deity you worship (the important thing to remember is that you have to visualize this guide every time you want to seek the guidance).
• Give your guide a name; something by which you would address him/her.
• Ask your guide the question that you want it has to be ONLY ONE question in that session (you can think of it before getting into the meditative state so that it comes easily) 
• Look at the image of your guide and after asking the question; say “Please give me the answer and the solution at the appropriate time”.
• Take the blessings of your guide and let the image fade away slowly.
• Continue into meditative state for some time and slowly get up thereafter.

That is it.
You will get your answers when the appropriate time comes; have full faith and follow this routine regularly for some days.

I was asked this question by a youngster yesterday.

It's a fairly common  thought that comes to the mind; after all who attuned Mikao Usui?

​He got the knowledge of Reiki all by himself, isn't it?

So do we need to be attuned?


And my answer was like this -

Frankly, we don't require attunement. After all isn't it  this a universal life energy and available to all? So why do you have to attend a Reiki class and receive initiation?

So we DO NOT "need" an attunement BUT I strongly recommend it.
As a teacher, I have initiated many students and I feel it's a singularly beautiful and divine experience for both the teacher as well as the receiver.

The reactions of the students are always good as they really feel the power of the divine energy entering them. Every student feels greatly touched by this universal energy.

There are two important aspects to this-

1.   In a practical  realm, Initiations are  the easiest and best way to feel the divine connection to the Spirit. The only other way is a long term meditation, just as Mikao Usui did. A tough call that!

2.  In the divine  realm, initiation opens up many doors  by this sacred ritual. The master passes on the divine spark of Reiki thru him/her and what can be better than that?

It is akin to lighting a lamp from another lamp and it's a process that increases the overall luminosity.

With this in mind, taking the attunement is your call.
If you feel upto it, go ahead, choose a Reiki master you are drawn to and who you think is sincere to get the initiated  and unlock the doors to this divine abundance .

God Bless.

And the type of love, that I share in my heart;
Is the one nobody could steal.

Oh, How do I put my feelings into words?
It is an almost impossible thing to do!
Is just those that matter,
Is it always sufficient to just say- I Love You?
