Camping with Reiki
Let's go camping.
(If you have never been camping before we recommend that you suspend your disbelief and attempt to likely to evoke an image for you.)
It's a beautiful day, which has been wandering through the jungle for a couple of hours looking for the perfect camping place (yes, we do a history of Australia camping). You startle a kangaroo as she rounded a corner and jump as fast as his powerful legs can carry her. The white chirping cockatoos in each other towering gum trees and the exotic perfume of sweet acacia hangs in the warm air.
Ahhh such is life.
You looking for the perfect place to camp, one that will keep you safe and warm at night.
On the other side of a reddish rock that finally see it … clear on the edge of a deep valley, with a vast panorama uninterrupted as far as the eye can see of the Australian wild and turquoise sky.
In the center of compensation there is a small group of ash with a record of lying that is perfect for a seat by the fireplace, you realize that someone has camped here before. This is always a good sign. You are not the first to have chosen this path, you must have some merit.
You walk the edge. Breathe deeply. Ready. All the equipment you need is in your backpack, just make sure you use it correctly.
Camping and could easily become on an analogy to the wonderful world of Reiki. Or have we been too obvious already? Probably.
Choose your path carefully Reiki. "The course provides the tools you need, going to build your independence and yet highlight a path that has proven successful for others?
Back to the story ….
You are at your chosen camping place. While it is still light begin to dismantle her backpack. You have everything you would need and all the things their friends and the tent had recommended. The most important thing is to have the basics of food, water, shelter, his lantern and … for an emergency, your office until phones.
But there is something special that you require when you go camping overnight you can not buy. It is something only you can do.
Back in the world of Reiki you have paid your course and are taught the basics of the system, hand positions, techniques and meditations, symbols and mantras, and precepts. * You receive Reiju and begin to feel ready to begin her practice.
But there is more to this as well …
Fire.
Building good practice of Reiki is like building a huge bonfire.
First practice for all their needs to be ignited. But on the Fire does not burn and there is no promise of future warmth or wisdom.
Obviously, you need solid material good way to start the fire – wood, matches dry and the perfect position. If all you have in your hand is a pretty piece of paper, will in flames in seconds and leaves a handful of black ash and boring sore fingers.
Ignition is thus a direct result of his experience at the quality of a Reiki course. Something flame when they meet the basic system, along with an accomplished teacher and fellow students. This combination creates a magical environment prone to fire.
It could be during practice of * ho hatsurei or when it receives combustion Reiju that point is reached; glimpse a sense of inner peace or perhaps a moment feels connected to everyone and everything in the room or, more intensity, the universe.
You are endowed with a promise. This promise is a transaction between you and something deep within you that is normally covered with a thick layer of society. You have just been offered a vision of something that is beyond imagining, beyond their daily routine of work, recreation and sleep. But is you keep the promise.
Do you want the sense of inner peace and back again with more regularity?
Imagine further the experience of connectedness to everyone and everything? Want to try to be always going with the flow of the universe and just be?
Now you can. The fire has been lit.
You must, however, feed it. Go collect more sticks, keep the fire burning.
In the course of his hands teacher something to wear. A practice and support. Know that if you practice very little – the fire exit. In moments of doubt to grab a lifeline of support – or they forget the promise and the course of Reiki will become nothing more than a fond memory.
Extend your practice, as from 5 minutes a day to 10 and well on. Be aware of balance in their practice, and some days you need a little more and others less so. It depends on your internal barometer and are providing attention now, look after the fire.
So find a comfortable place near the big fire that is hot food and light their way through the dark night. Turn the heat gradually to the records of appropriate size to its constant target heat warms the inner soul. This place is like no other – that is Single for you.
Sitting at home in your record, you notice the flickering fire on the mottled trunk of a large tree nearby. You are reminded that the gum trees of the Australian great about covering the ground with their leaves to encourage the fire. Fire offers this unique flora regeneration. It is when the perfect combination of eucalyptus oil and dry heat meet, combustion occurs and Bush is caught in the renewed strength of the fire.
Enjoy the sky night, see the brightness of stars in the heavens and sip your tea * Billy.
It is humanity's innate ability to find inner peace. Promoting the right conditions, maintain the practice of fire as a fire burns beautifully controlled, and enjoy the fruits of life in action.
GLOSSARY
* Reiju: In Japan, Reiju is the name given to the method a teacher uses to communicate with individual students on an energetic level. In the process of moving from Japan to the West, Reiju changed several aspects, including its name. In the West, as amended, generally known as harmonization, the initiation or processing. For more information, see the article All About Reiju.
* Hatsurei Ho: You'll find versions of this technique here in the Japanese art Reiki, or Reiki Ho CD.
* Billy tea creates Billy tea in a can or Billy Billy. This is a traditional tool of Australia for making tea on the fire. It is a cylindrical can with a lid. A stick was put on the same cable to allow easy movement control on or off the fire. How do Billy Tea: Pour water into a Billy can place on fire and wait for it to boil. Remove from heat and add a couple of teaspoons of black tea. Hold the billy by the handle and swing in a circle highly sprung from the floor to the ceiling of a number of times. The pressure of rapid movement ensures that the tea is still in and not end up Billy. Let stand briefly before serving. This unusual process ensures that the tea leaves settle well, obtaining a delicious cup of tea of Billy, without using a strainer. Mmmm.
