It is an unseen spiritual power that vibrates and all other powers fade into insignificance beside it. &nbsp;So therefore, it is Absolute! &nbsp;This power is unfathomable, immeasurable, and being a universal life force, it is incomprehensible to man. Yet, every single living being is receiving its blessings daily, awake or asleep. Different teachers and masters call Him The Great Spirit; The Universal Life Force; Life Energy, because when applied it vitalizes the whole system; Ether Wave because it soothes pain and puts you into deep slumber as if under an anesthetic, and The Cosmic Wave because it radiates vibrations of exultant feelings and lifts you into harmony. I shall call it &#8220;Reiki&#8221; because I studied under that expression. Reiki is a radionic wave like radio. It could be applied locally or as in short wave. &nbsp;A distant treatment could be successfully given. Reiki is not electricity, nor radium or X-ray. &nbsp;It could penetrate thin layers of silk, linen, porcelain or lead, wood or steel, because it comes from the Great Spirit, the Infinite. It does not destroy delicate tissues or nerves. &nbsp;It is absolutely harmless, therefore, it is a practical and safe treatment. &nbsp;Because it is a universal wave, everything that has life benefits when treated \u2014 plant life, fowls, the animals, as well as human beings, infants or old, poor or rich. &nbsp;It should be applied and used daily as a prevention. &nbsp;God gave us this body, a place to dwell, and our daily bread. &nbsp;We were put into this world for some purpose, therefore, we should have health and happiness. &nbsp;It was God&#8217;s plan so he provides us with everything. He gave us hands to use them to apply and heal, to retain physical health and mental balance, to free ourselves from ignorance, and live in an enlightened world to live in harmony with yourself and others, to love all beings. When these rules are applied daily, the body shall respond and all we wish and desire to attain in this world is within our reach. Health, happiness and the road to longevity, which we all seek \u2014 I shall call this Perfection.<\/p>\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<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Page 2<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">How to Attain this Power \u2014 First Degree Initiation or &#8220;Shoden&#8221;:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being a universal force from the Great Divine Spirit, it belongs to all who seek and a desire to learn the art of healing. It knows no color, nor creed, old or young. It will find its way when the student is ready to accept. He is shown the way. Initiation is a sacred ceremony and the contact is made. Because we are associating with the Divine Spirit, there is nor error nor should we doubt. It is Absolute!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The Hands are Ready to Heal:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the first contact or initiation, the hands radiate vibrations when applied to the ailing part. It relieves pain, stops the blood from an open wound; your hands are ready to heal acute and chronic diseases \u2014 human beings \u2014 the plants \u2014 the fouls \u2014 the animals. In acute cases, only a few minutes\u2019 application is necessary. In the chronic cases, the first step is to find the cause and effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">How to Diagnose \u2014 The Cause and Effect:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"_stroke\">It is not necessary to undress the patient completely, but it is better to loosen all tight clothing so that the patient may relax, lying on the table face up. Most important is to find the cause of the illness. Start treatment from the eyes, sinus, pituitary glands, ears, throat, thyroids, thymus, stomach, gall bladder, liver, pancreas, solar plexus, ileocecum, colon, sigmoid flexure, ovarian glands, bladder, then front chest and heart. Turn patient over, treat the back, lungs, sympathetic nerves, kidneys, spleen, and prostate glands. During the treatment, trust your hands. Listen to the vibrations or reaction. If there is pain, it registers pain in your finger tips and palm. If the patient has itch, it reacts the same; if deep and chronic, it throbs a deep pain, or if acute, the pain is a shallow tingle. As soon as the body responds to the treatment, the acute ailment disappears but the cause remains. Dig into the cause daily and with each treatment, improvement is seen. After the organs have been thus treated, I finish the treatment with a nerve stroke which adjusts the circulation. Apply on the skin a few drops of sesame oil or any pure vegetable oil. I place my thumb and forefinger on the left side of the spinal column and the three fingers and palm flat on the right side of the spinal column. With a downward stroke, 10 to 15 strokes from the shoulders to the end of the spinal cord. Only in diabetic cases are the strokes reversed; arms and legs are manipulated towards the heart.<\/p>\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<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Page 3<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The above treatment is called the foundation treatment and it requires an hour or more, all depending on the complications and seriousness of the case. &nbsp;Going through the body in minute detail, the hands become sensitive and are able to determine the cause and to detect the slightest congestion within, whether physical or mental, acute or chronic. &nbsp;Being strictly drugless and a bloodless treatment, Reiki will adjust the body to normal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The Purge or Reaction:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In about four days to three weeks we find a great change taking place within the body, all internal organs and glands begin to function with much vigor and rhythm. The digestive juices put out normal flow, the congested nerves slacken, the adhesions break away, the lazy colon gets organised, the fickle matter drops from the walls of the intestines, the gases eliminate. &nbsp;Many years of accumulated toxin finds its way out through the pores. &nbsp;It is a sticky perspiration. &nbsp;The bowels increase, dark and strong in odor. &nbsp;The urine increases like dark tea, sometimes white as if flour stirred in water. It lasts four to six days, and yet I have had patients who reacted with only one treatment. When this is established, you are assured of a big general overhaul of the internal organs taking place. &nbsp;With such good cleansing, the body becomes active. &nbsp;The numbed nerves regain sense of feeling, appetite increases, sound sleep comes natural, eyes sparkle, skin glows like silk. &nbsp;With new blood and good circulation, nerves and glands restored, it is possible to rejuvenate five to 10 years. &nbsp;At this time, it is very important what you consume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">The Diet:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Reiki health treatments, we are vegetarians, and eat all kinds of fruits in season. Nature provides with plenty, but never to waste. Over-eating is a sin. Eating in moderation, with a feeling of gratitude, to recognise the Great Spirit who is the creator, who is the All Power to make things grow and blossom and bear fruit. Come to the table with pleasant thoughts. Never eat when you are worried. Milk, white sugar, <s>orange juice and pineapple juice to<\/s> and starches are to be avoided when the patient has a weak stomach. With proper food, the patient responds faster to the treatments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my past 12 years of practice, experience has taught me a few short cuts to find the cause and to get best results. &nbsp;In the following treatments, first use the foundation treatment, then concentrate longer on the vital points mentioned herewith:<\/p>\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<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Page 4<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Common Cold or \u201cFlu\u201d \u2013 Sinus, Throat, Chest<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pleuresy \u2013 Pleura, Heart, Kidneys<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Diabetes \u2013 Liver, Pancreas, Spleen, Kidneys<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lukemia \u2013 Liver, Pancreas, Spleen, Heart<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gall Stones \u2013 Gall Bladder, Liver, Spleen, Kidneys<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Polio \u2013 Small Intestines, Solar Plexus, Colon, (Arms or Legs) Spinal Column<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rheumatic Fever \u2013 Solar Plexus, Kidneys, Spleen, Heart<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Carbuncles \u2013 Liver, Pancreas, Kidneys, Carbuncle (Do not force.

The student takes his second vow of initiation, which is a sacred ceremony. With the knowledge of &#8220;Oku Den&#8221;, the student has the advantage to help the subconscious mind &#8211; mental cases &#8211; correct bad habits &#8211; nervous breakdowns \u2013 insomnia &#8211; long distance treatments. In depressed patients, change their attitude so they will attain the brighter side of life. In treating mental cases, first find the cause.
