Usui Reiki Level 1 - Hands On Healing Practices For those who are new to Reiki, we can understand how this blossoming of many Reiki teachings can also mean that there is some confusion about Reiki. We understand that it can be confusing when searching for ‘authentic’ Reiki techniques, healing practices and Reiki lineages So in order to help clear up some of this confusion, let us now talk a little more about the idea of the
Reiki lineage. And as we do this, we will also try to explain how some of these various lineages have emerged in the modern day world of Usui Reiki ** To start with then, having now seen that Reiki is a healing modality taught from Master to disciple, you can perhaps start to see how this would create a chain of people who are authorised or quali ed to pass on the Reiki teachings i.e. Master to student (who then becomes Master), Master to student, Master to student etc.
Reiki
In all cases, all of these chains will lead back to the original founder - Dr Mikao Usui. And this is what we mean when we say an authentic or genuine Usui Reiki lineage.
It is the idea that your Reiki Master Teacher should be able to trace their lineage back to Dr Mikao Usui. Otherwise, if you do not receive an authentic Reiki lineage, you will not be connecting with the same energies that Dr Mikao Usui ‘brought through’ as part of his Mt Kurama realisation. This is a very important point When we talk about Reiki, we will o en refer to this healing system as ‘Usui Reiki’. This is because of the great number of additional Reiki’s which have emerged during the 21st century that are not originating from Dr Mikao Usui. These other forms of Reiki are now being brought through by a great variety of di erent people, spiritual teachers and other channels & mediums and whilst many of these energy based healing systems are indeed valid & genuine - they are not the same energies that were ‘brought through’ by Dr Mikao Usui So for our purposes here, we will be focusing solely on the Usui Reiki lineages (given that this is an Usui Reiki course) and we will not be talking any more about at any of the newer forms of Reiki such as Karuna Reiki, Kundalini Reiki, Celestine Reiki etc. (For more information about a broader de nition of ‘Reiki’ and to help introduce you to some of the newer forms of Reiki and energy based healing, we kindly ask that you refer to our FAQ’s page where you can nd more information about Reiki in a broader context) Ok, so getting back to the Usui Reiki lineages now and to the idea that the lineages are created through a continual teaching pattern from Master to student, we can understand that the global Reiki lineage these days is actually extremely complicated
