Reiki Kind

Mankind – from the Cambridge dictionary – the whole of the human race, including both men and women: Mankind has always been obsessed by power

ReikiKind – from me – those who have been initiated into Reiki: ReikiKind – for those practicing all ‘kinds’/styles of Reiki. One of the Reiki Principles ‘Be kind to every living thing’

REIKI -Universal Life force Energy

KIND

Ki – Energy

N – Nurture

D – Develop – Diligence

TRC is ReikiKind.

ReikiKind is all about not forgetting our roots. Not forgetting the essence of Reiki.
Not forgetting the basic Reiki Principles:

If you are Western Reiki:

Just for today I will not worry
Just for today I will not anger
I will honour my parents, teachers and elders
Do my work honestly
Be kind to every living thing

From Mikoa Usui’s Memorial Stone: Reiki Precepts

Kyo dakewa – (Just for today)
Ikaru na (Do not anger)
Shinpai suna (Do not worry)
Kansha shite (Be grateful)
Gyo o hagame – (Work with diligence)
Hito ni shinsetsu ni – (Be kind to others)

Not forgetting Gassho – the fundamental, simple meditation performed by Mikao Usui every morning and night

Sit with your spine straight, but still comfortable
Close your eyes and place hands together with palms touching in front of the middle of your chest, with your thumbs touching your heart chakra.
When you breathe out through your nose, your breath should be touching your fingertips.
Focus your attention at the point where your 2 middle fingers meet.
If your mind wanders, acknowledge the thought, then let it go and just refocus by returning your attention to the point where your middle fingers meet.
If you find it then simply let your hands, while still keeping them together, slowly drop and rest in your lap.
If you need to adjust your posture, then move slowly, deliberately and consciously.
While still keeping your eyes closed, slowly rest your hands in your lap
Take a couple of deep breaths bringing attention to your eyes, opening them slowly

Not forgetting

the time and energy spent with your Reiki Master
the energy in the room when you meet with other ReikiKind
to give yourself Reiki every day
to value your Reiki – Reiki exchange
that we are simply a channel for Reiki energy
that it is not our personal energy we are giving
to let go of the ego
that confidence and understanding is not ego
to follow your own truths and intuition
that Reiki is all inclusive
that Reiki is Reiki and that never changes, the only thing that can change is the manner in which it is given
to acknowledge and accept there are many styles and schools of Reiki
that schools have their way of teaching Reiki, which may be different to yours
that Reiki voluntary self-regulation is a choice
there are many practicing Reiki who learnt off the internet, that is their choice. Who are we to say what is wrong and what is right? Just trust in your Reiki
that people are not on the same pathway as you and may not ‘believe’ in Reiki. Again – that is their choice. If someone asks you what you are doing now and you mention Reiki, if they are not in that ‘place’ it won’t even register on their radar. If they are in that ‘place’ they will ask you about Reiki and then you can tell them all about it, knowing that they may, or may not, be interested
we only give Reiki if the person has asked for, and is happy to receive it
we do not send Reiki (if Reiki 2 or Master) unless requested by the recipient
we only request Reiki for the persons highest good
we never diagnose – we are not medically trained in Reiki
that active listening is a great tool to have
we never proclaim to ‘heal’ – Reiki can give a feeling of total relaxation enabling the body to heal itself – but there are times when conventional medical intervention is a must
we are human and sometimes forget!

Please, at all times endeavour to be ReikiKind

AT TRC WE ARE REIKIKIND
