This is a brief introduction to another extremely powerful, yet all too unknown Reiki technique called Reiji. Its really surprising that 90% of the Reiki Practitioners out there have probably never even heard of it, yet it is one of the most interesting and useful I know.
What is Reji ?
Reiji is the practice of allowing Reiki to guide your hands to the place where Reiki energy and Reiki healing is most needed, so you don’t need to follow the 12 basic hand positions or any other set pattern. Its not only much easier (once you mastered it) but also more powerful. Reiki has an intelligence all its own so there is no way to bend it to your will, but your intent can play a very strong role in suggesting a course of healing, and if it is in the best interests of all involved, Reiki will see to it that it’s done.
How do you do Reiji?
Several years ago I was on a train in Osaka when an elderly gentleman boarded and sat down next to me. Immediately my hands started tingling, which is a signal that Reiki has been activated. I was half into a train meditation (not much else to do on those crowded Japanese trains) so I allowed the meditation to follow the tingling to see where it led and lo and behold it went straight to the guy next to me who was obviously in need of some sort of healing. Continuing to follow the energy flow, it led directly to his lower back… and so armed with this useful information I used the 1st and 3rd Reiki Symbols (not necessarily in that order) and set my intent on directing Reiki to do its thing. A short time later the train stopped and he got off… a little bit perkier from what I could tell… once outside the train he looked back at me and we made eye contact… a rarity in Osaka… in all likelihood he had no idea what had occurred, yet he knew something had happened… and that, IMHO was one of my finer moments… that is how to do Reiji!!! Well, the part about setting my intent on directing Reiki to do its thing was anyway… the rest is, a deeply implanted subliminal metaphor that will hopefully entrain the mind of the reader to selflessly perform similar acts (for those that don’t already). 🙂
