It is nature&#8217;s greatest cure, which requires no drugs. It helps in all respects, human &amp; animal life.

After seeing them off, came back ok with Julia to Mrs. Hayashi\u2019s home. They were so nice and begged me to stay with them so from that night on I am staying here. This must have been my real lucky day as I come to think. I have gained so much knowledge in line of treatments that I found myself taking patients naturally. Went to cure the two girls of Baron Toku 2 days and they were cured, Mrs Harazawa at Keio Hospital, every night at 7:30 p.m. &#8211; treatment for after operation &#8211; finds it very good and fast recovery.

What was more than pleasing was that Mr. Hayashi has granted to bestow upon me the secrets of Shinpi Den, Kokiyu-Ho &amp; the Leiji-Ho, the utmost secret in the Energy Science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Know one can imagine my happiness to think that I have the honor &amp; respect to be treated with this gift \u2014 a gift of a life time &amp; I promised within me to do my utmost in regard to this beautiful wonderful teaching that I just received. I shall promise to do what is right thru sincereness and kindness and shall regard and respect the teaching and its teacher with utmost reverence and respect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>March 29, 1937<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Law of Karma, so true according the teachings, when we meet, it is the beginning of parting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-black-color has-css-opacity has-black-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-black-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"background-color:#faf8ed\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Historical Perspectives<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To learn more about the context for these diary entries and the techniques Takata describes here, see Dr. Justin Stein&#8217;s essay, &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/reikigreybook.com\/en\/resources\/the-grey-book-and-reiki-history\/\">The &#8216;Grey Book&#8217; and Reiki History.<\/a>&#8220;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-black-color has-css-opacity has-black-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-black-color has-css-opacity has-black-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignwide has-background\" style=\"background-color:#faf8ed\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-background\" id=\"_1\" style=\"background-color:#faf8ed;font-size:30px\"><strong>Historical Note<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile is-vertically-aligned-center has-background\" style=\"background-color:#faf8ed\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>[1] The text above transcribes Takata&#8217;s words exactly, including spelling mistakes.
