Reiki is the Japanese word for universal life energy, and in this important book authors Muller and Gunther explain how this remarkable healing method sends energy through the hands of a practitioner into the body of a receiver. Reiki healing works on all levels: physical, spiritual, and emotional. It removes barriers, balances chakras, rebuilds harmony, encourages self-healing to strengthen health and recharge energy, and flows in an unlimited quantity. In sum, it is an immeasurable gift. Dr. Mikao Usui rediscovered this lost healing art in the late nineteenth century. After learning that Buddha had the power to heal, he spent years searching for any original Buddhist writings that contained the key to healing. Finally, Usui located the formula, the symbols, and the description of how the Buddha healed written down in a 2,500-year-old Sanskrit document by one of Buddha's disciples, and he set out on a long, successful quest to turn this newfound wisdom from the Buddha into the power to heal.
