Another Reiki-modality-crammed week has seen a variety of questions asked on Quora\u2014questions that relate to various aspects of Reiki philosophy, therapy and mastery.<\/p>\n
Here is a round up of the top 5 answers from Martyn, this week…<\/p>\n
When we view a date as in the future or in the past, we are just reflecting how they are encoded in our minds. So, a past date is in memory, whilst a future date is a hope, dream or, in some cases, worry.<\/p>\n
When we look beyond our time-addiction\u2014which is very challenging!\u2014we appreciate that the moment we define as now and the moment we define as another date<\/i> exist as one\u2014it is our perception that differentiates them; seeing them as separate from each other.<\/p>\n

Reiki is everywhere at all times\u2014it is the source of all balance and harmony in the Universe, constantly striving to attain that Shinki perfection<\/i>, through which everything is given purpose.<\/p>\n The greatest challenge within our Reiki modality community lies within the teaching. We are taught to externalise a Universal Constant (Reiki) which, by its very nature, is within all things. We are indoctrinated into terminology, such as \u2018send\u2019, \u2018receive\u2019, \u2018flow\u2019, \u2018channel\u2019 and so on. We reduce oneness into many\u2014the singular energy of all things , into the \u2018energies\u2019 of you and I and them and that.<\/p>\n Read the full article here…<\/a><\/p>\n According to Mikao Usui, there are four cornerstones to Usui Reiki Ryoho, which are: self-treatment, treatment of others, cultivation and empowerment.<\/p>\n When we look to the foundations of these cornerstones, we see two are focused on the self (self-treatment and cultivation), whilst the other two involve other people. In the case of empowerment, we are empowered<\/i> by our Usui Reiki Master and when treating others, we are in many ways, empowering<\/i> them.<\/p>\n Read the full article here…\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Our understanding of Reiki as a \u2018force\u2019 is derived from Shintoism and encompasses over 10,000 years of ancient culture. Reiki is a Universal Constant (it is infinite and eternal), according to the traditions. It is a harmonising force that always seeks to find a natural balance in the world.<\/p>\n Then we have modalities of Reiki therapy; the most common of these being, Usui Reiki Ryoho (often used in the reductive form of \u2018Reiki\u2019). There are now hundreds of different modalities of Reiki therapy that are as varied in style and philosophy as the people who work with those therapies.<\/p>\n Read the full article here…<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Very often what many would call \u2018negative energy\u2019 is firstly not \u2018negative\u2019, as this means an \u2018absence of energy\u2019 or \u2018less than zero energy\u2019. All things are energy in some form or another, so \u2018less than zero energy\u2019? No.<\/p>\n When using the term \u2018negative energy\u2019 we often mean, a form of energy or experience that is unpleasant\u2014either in the pain it causes, the results we achieve or the ongoing effects of the experience, etc.<\/p>\nWhat are the feelings that I feel when I receive Reiki?<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/h2>\n
