Customer Reviews
Unsatisfying.
I am a yoga practicioner and recently got interest for reiki. After receiving my 1st attunement I was advised by my reiki teacher to read that book. While talking about the subject, I felt it was mixing too many things, throwing in reiki with wicca, yoga, Chi Kung. I understand all therories are similar if not identical, but the book seems to lose its focus on reiki sometimes. I personaly don't feel attracted to wicca at all, and the constant reference to it was a put off for me.
As well the system of prana/light/ki is not very clear, and I would recommend a good reading of "The Heart of Yoga" by TKV Desikachar, where this system is very well explained, especialy the Kundalini chapter.
I have nothing against sexualy oriented spiritual practices but personaly don't feel attracted to it, therefore the 1st ki exercises detailed in the book were not appealing to me.
Altogether the book left me unsatisfied; I don't feel like I learnt much about the actual Reiki techniques and still feel the need to get another book to learn.
One of the best books on Reiki
This is one of the best books on Reiki. It gives the reader a great insight into the ancient wisdom of the orient, and covers comprehensively the knowledge base needed for Reiki. It systematically covers all the Reiki Symbols. I would recommend it to any serious student of Reiki to Master Practitioners.
one of the best
This book was suggested to me and I am glad I read it!
It is very easy to follow and everything is clearly explained.
I can easily say that this is one of the best Reiki books around!
