In order for Reiki to work on a particular symptom or a particular item it must be focused on that symptom or item. This post discusses focusing within to allow Reiki to do some deep soul healing… the deeper you can focus, the deeper you allow the Reiki energies to penetrate and do their thing.

First of all, this is a bit advanced, so if you don’t get it the first time, don’t disparage, it may take some practice, but once you can access the core the path there becomes emblazoned and subsequent return trips will be a piece of cake.

Roadmap to the Soul

In order to heal the soul you need to find it first. Where, exactly, does one start looking? The soul is one of those mysterious unfathomables that has denied proper definition as well as in depth understanding since time immemorial. So what, specifically are we talking about here?

My own understanding of the soul is derived from an interpretation (or rather a mis-interpretation) of Rene Descartes famous conclusion cognito ergo sum (I think therefore I am). While contemplating this statement I have often wondered why Rene didn’t say I am therefore I think. And what would the implications be of such a statement. Of course professional philosophers have been debating the implications of this for years and I’m sure I am not about to discover something they haven’t but I believe that by the simple fact that these two statements are quite different in understanding there is more to it than a simple observation.

Readings from Victor Frankl to Nisargadatta Maharaj have led me to the conclusion that the I in I think is different from the I in I am. These are two different I’s we are talking about. We actually have 2 I’s (two eyes…. get it… ) the one that thinks (the I think) and the one that is (the I am). Setting religious interpretations of the I am aside, the observing I, is different than the observed I. The I doing the thinking is that which we refer to as the mind while the I doing the being is that which we refer to as the soul.

Confusing enough for you? If you didn’t understand the last paragraph, or just glossed over it, give it another go, a understanding of this is vital for my Deep Soul Reiki technique.

Deep Soul Reiki Technique

Okay… now that you understand exactly what the soul is, its much easier to focus on. To do so, connect to Reiki in your usual way and meditate in whatever way suits you the best. Quiet your mind in whatever way you can. Just relax and stop the monkey mind for as long as you can. As soon as it starts again, that is, as soon as any thought at all enters your head, notice that there is a part of you that hears, acknowledges, reacts to or otherwise witnesses that thought. That part of you is what you are aiming for. Once you notice it, shift your attention to it and send Reiki to it. As you send Reiki, go as deep as possible into that part of you. Imagine it is an entire universe made of planets, chose one and enter into it, send Reiki to that planet and allow Reiki to spread out for you in ever direction as you go deep into the planet. Notice it is made of atoms. Notice each atom is a universe in and of itself made of planets which are in turn made of atoms. As you go deeper and deeper into these internal universe, send Reiki to each universe you encounter and each planet you enter. Repeat this as long as you can without creating thought or judgment about it, so that you are continually going deeper and deeper and continually sending Reiki along the way.

That’s about all there is to it. With more practice I guarantee it gets easier… and more pleasurable. Give it a shot and let me know how it goes. Good luck!!
