The word Reiki comes from two Japanese Words, “Rei” and “ki”. Rei means “universal” or “cosmic” and “ki” refers to the life force energy that flows through all matter. Because Reiki is universal, it is the energy of life and creation, and therefore, can do no harm. Reiki can only be used for good and will go wherever it is needed. As a creative force, Reiki is highly intelligent.

Reiki can be applied in person by laying on of hands, or can be sent over a distance (in level II). It helps the practitioner develop their intuition, and understand themselves and others. Reiki can heal on the physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and soul levels. And not only does Reiki heal the client, Reiki heals the practitioner.

When the Reiki Channel (Practitioner) lays their hands on a client, the client subconsciously draws Reiki through the Channel (Practitioner) and into themselves. The Reiki flows from the universe through the Channel and into the client, which means that the Channel is not using their own energy, so does not feel depleted after a session.

Mrs. Takata's Explanation:

[The following excerpt is taken from the early diary of Mrs. Hawayo Takata, the first American to become a Reiki Master (1938, Honolulu, Hawaii).]


“I believe there exists One Supreme Being – the Absolute Infinite – a Dynamic Force that governs the world and universe. … This power is unfathomable, immeasurable, and …incomprehensible to man. Yet, every single living being is receiving its blessings daily, awake or asleep.

…I shall call it “Reiki” because I studied under that expression. Reiki is a radionic wave like radio. It could be applied locally or as in short wave. A distant treatment could be successfully given.

Reiki is not electricity, nor radium or X-ray. It could penetrate thin layers of silk, linen, porcelain or lead, wood or steel, because it comes from the Great Spirit, the Infinite.

…Because it is a universal wave, everything that has life benefits when treated – plant life, fowls, the animals, as well as human beings, infants or old, poor or rich.

It should be applied and used daily as a prevention. God gave us this body… We were put into this world for some purpose, therefore, we should have health and happiness.
It was God’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.

…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….

In acute cases, only a few minutes’ application is necessary. In chronic cases, the first step is to find the cause and effect. …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.”
