The Reiki Precepts

“For this day only

Do not be angry

Do not worry

Be diligent in your practice/ be honest in your work

Be compassion to yourself and others”

(This is a main part of the system of Reiki as taught by the founder, Mikao Usui.)

Reiki training is available in the form of tiered classes, levels 1, 2, and 3.  Jacob Kelly is a certified Reiki teacher -that is level 3 (sometimes referred to as a Master in the West, though becoming a master of anything takes a lifetime of dedication).   Jacob continues his Reiki education that began in 2004, by practicing meditation, contemplation of the precepts of Reiki and hands on healing daily. Jacob has been certified to teach under the Usui Shiki Ryhoho lineage since 2005, then received training in the Usui Reiki Shiki Ryoho lineage, and is now Shinpiden (level 3 -“mystery teachings”) certified in the more traditional lineage of Japanese Reiki, Usui Reiki Ryoho which means Usui (the founder’s name) method of healing with Spiritual Energy.  This latter lineage -Usui Reiki Ryoho- is the lineage that is taught and passed down in Jacob’s classes. In reality, the lineage of what you learn is probably THE LEAST important thing about the teachings that you receive in Reiki. But lineages are an important way to acknowledge and recognize the different streams of, and contributions to the system of Reiki healing and Reiki practice around the globe.

The most notable difference between what can be delineated as Western Reiki -Reiki that has been changed from the more internal art of the East, to a more external healing method- and the more Traditional Japanese Reiki (what Jacob now teaches) is that the emphasis is less on hands-on healing, though this is certainly a main element of the system, and more on overall spiritual health and growth of the individual practicing Reiki.  Self-practice (meditation, getting to know and “be” the precepts of Reiki, and self hands-on healing) are the focus in our system of Reiki.  Then, like fire burning in the belly, heart and mind of the practitioner, that light naturally shines outward and is more available to share with others.
