Reiki: Mastery

On one very simple and yet powerful level Reiki Mastery is the ability
to Initiate, to open the healing channels within others, to teach and share
about Reiki. For me it is my personal Spiritual practice and discipline.
It is what I turn to first in times of need. It is the path I follow to
take me deeper within myself.
There is no end to Reiki. I can lean into it. I can surround myself
with it. I have an endless supply of love and energy to share with others.
I have tools, powerful tools that mean I am never helpless.
Reiki calls me to leadership in times of peace and in times of need.
The strength that I derive from Reiki allows me to support others at deepest
levels including death and transition. I am willing to listen to and support
those who come to me, to offer mentorship and guidance to students and
to the community around me, and to the world.
In Usui Shiki Ryoho, the traditional path of Reiki that I follow and
teach Reiki Mastership is a serious commitment. It is not taught in a class
or in a weekend. It is an ongoing mentorship supporting the candidates
journey with Reiki and journey within themselves. It often takes a year
or more of consideration, practice, study, personal growth. It is a very
individual and personal process and not for the faint of heart.
The light that Mastership brings with it illuminates all the dark places
within us, gives us the opportunity to gather all of ourselves unto us
with love.........to truly be ALL that we are. Choose a Master or Masters
for your journey that can support you, hold the energy for your coming
into your power with great love.
If I am asked to support you on that journey I will consider it carefully,
for to me it must be a journey I can take with you with all my heart. I
take these journeys very seriously. My part is to be truthful with you,
to be available in all ways, not just on the path to Initiation, but for
the rest of our lives.
