Reiki is experiential

August 24th

Reiki is truely experiential. The way for anyone to learn Reiki is to practice it and heal themselves in the process.

For some reason, I have bargained this process.I told myslef that I do not require Reiki healing. I could learn it from the books but sadly that was not the case with me. I don't know how to explain Reiki. I can only help the person experience it.

The process of learning has to start from me. I am a Reiki master but I can't tell the world that I don't know how to experience Reiki.

There is still a part of me that resists the healing required for that part, It is that part that always says no to Reiki..

When should I stop the bargain? When should I accept healing for me?

Live in the present and accept people and situations as they are. This was a powerful message that I recieved today from one of my books.

It was so profound that it struck my heart.

The time is now.

21 day

After the Reiki 3b,  I was confused with the two schools of learning that I am going through.

I wanted to know what I should focus on and on the meditation the answers came as,  for the next 21,  till September.  I am not supposed to read any books on healing and only to focus on the Reiki 21 day cycle.

I will get more clarity afterwards. In the 21 day cycle,  or would be best to split it into two one session in the morning and another one in the evening.

Today will be my first day,  I will start in the evening.

Holy science

Today I started the Holy science book written by swami yuktheshwar giri

I could not fully grasp what swami was explaining. So I thought I will meditate upon those topics.

My mind kept wandering away.  I used the prayer technique to bring it back everytime.

Meditation and prayer

Today in the meditation my mind was wandering.

But in every in breath I prayed to my father to help me concentrate. It made me mindful and I was able to concentrate for sometime and then again my mind wandered.

It was  a good meditation,  I will keep using this simple, method in my meditation until I am able to concentrate for the entire 30mins.

The best part is,  I feel like my father is listening to me and helping me concentrate.

Talking to my father

Today I was deeply disturbed before the meditation.

After reading the book "How to talk to God"  I realized that renunciation means giving up small pleasures for the highest pleasure of attaining Gods Kingdom.

I prayed for 30mins I could concentrate well for 15mins but when I started the om chanting I started to lose my focus.

I need to increase my meditation time to 1 hour - 45min meditation and 15mins writing.

I have wake up at 5.30 am everyday,  if I have to do that.

I need to develop that zeal.

Om chsnting

Today meditation was om chanting.  The mind keep running away from me alot.

The first few minutes I was able to concentrate on the reading from guruji.

Then I lost track of my mind and thoughts started to pour on to me.  I switched between chanting and silent meditation when ever I noticed that my mind has wandered.

I will continue this meditation till I get another meditation techniques. 

From today I will pay attention to my mind and how try to bring it to the present.

I will have to control my mind and offer it to my father.

Meditation is all about patience

Today the meditation was about helping me understand how I was impatient.

I could concentrate with my breathing exercise or with my silent meditation.  Thoughts came at me one after the other.

After a while I was reminded about the lesson taught in the last meditation class.
Patience and detachment.

I was not at all patient enough and sought after advanced techniques only to find that I was not ready for them.

So  I started doing the other chanting.
