Preface

As the undisputed leader of New Age therapies, Reiki has emerged as the primary energy for global transformation and personal mastery. Never before have so many people been able to access these subtle energies at the same time. It is for the first time that mankind has evolved to an age where the critical mass is all set to bring about global transformation.

Reiki, though popular, has been taught at the very basic level. In a general workshop for any level, only an attunement is passed and the practice is done. This is definitely suffcient, but the application of the wonderful Reiki energy is not completely taught – thus the view that Reiki only heals diseases. It can do much more and there are specific ways by which higher energies can be channelled for our specific purposes.

A doctor is trained not only about human anatomy but about the various tools that he will have to use as well. Similarly, in Reiki it is essential to learn and then use the plethora of tools available. In fact, we must learn to play around with Reiki – apply Reiki to anything and everything. The results are astonishing. Just like water takes the shape of any vessel it enters, Reiki starts working at any application.

At the Thakore Centre, we had numerous experiments with Reiki and after many trials, we short-listed a few specific ways in which the use of Reiki was much more powerful. The intensity of Reiki is immeasurable, like that of our thoughts or emotions. Can you ever say you felt five units of anger or eight units of excitement? No! Likewise, Reiki depends on experience, and as you apply the practices in this book, you will be able to see for yourself the wonderful changes in your energy level.

21 Power Tools of Reiki is a collection of different methods and tools that make Reiki more effective. After almost five years of constant research, we present this book, which will make you a true warrior with tools for all occasions.

Just as a discipline like Karate is for channelling and focusing physical energy through kathas, these power tools will ensure a concentrated projection of the energy. In all its simplicity, Reiki flows wherever required. The power tools only concentrate the flow. When a problem is attacked from all sides, it is solved faster and the different lines of attack are these power tools. Use them and see the difference. The power is yours… Go for it!

Acknowledgements

I would like to thank God for choosing me to be a channel for this wonderful wisdom to be passed on.

To my Reiki teachers Chandran and Rita Bhat – their teachings remain a constant source of inspiration.

My mother for her blessings and encouragement and my mother-in-law for the keen interest in all my activities. My husband, who’s a friend, philosopher and guide. My son Abhishek, a master in the making, for helping me with this book. To my daughter Akanksha for her suggestions and support. And to my other relatives and friends for their support.

I am also grateful to the people who have a lot of resistance to learn Reiki, for it gave me a chance to realise that you can’t change a person unless the person wants to change himself. I am grateful to the reader for giving me an opportunity to share my knowledge.

–Usha Thakore

On my part, I would like to thank my mother, for being a living expression of joy and life and for bringing love and bliss into our lives. My father, the balancing force in my life, but for whom I would have been a blind follower of many inappropriate beliefs without questioning. My sister Akanksha for being a wonderful friend, supporter, ardent student and a thoughtful critic too.

Thank also to other relatives, teachers, friends and well-wishers. To Mr Ram Avtar Gupta, for being such a wonderful supporter. To Mr S.K. Roy for the help and patience as I completed this book. And to every person at Pustak Mahal who has been responsible, directly or indirectly, for the publication of this book.

ATTITUDE TOOLS

It’s in the way you think and believe that you achieve. Reiki is no different – a certain set of mental attributes tremendously help the flow of Reiki. These set of tools are not exercises to be done but are like a mental posture that is to be assumed before commencing Reiki.

Due to all its infuences, our mind has been driven away from these noble attitudes. So, initially it might be a little difficult to get into the required mental state. But with practice, and improving results, the benefits of attitude tools will become obvious.

Using attitude tools is like watering a plant at its roots – the effect, though not immediate, is long lasting and very effective. The exercises add a practical dimension to each tool – and ensure that the results are quantified too.

Another obvious benefit of these tools is that it does not require any materials, only your mind that is ever present. These tools empower your mind, which is the creator of intention. And ultimately, all that counts is your intention.

Attitude determines Altitude.

So let us explore attitude tools!

1Gratitude

What is it?

A feeling of thankfulness can be called gratefulness. When you feed a dog, it shows its gratitude by wagging its tail. Elders express gratitude with blessings and infants with blissful laughter.

There are many things in life that we take for granted so often, without ever realising how important they are. Have you ever been in a hurry one morning, only to find your washbasin tap not working? That’s perhaps when you realised for the first time how convenient it was to have the basin!

Even at this moment when you read this book, you will be able to recognise the fact that it has come to you because of so many factors. Not only us as the authors, but the paper supplier, the publisher, the light that you’re reading under or the place – all gifts that you tend to take for granted. We need to be in gratitude all the time.

Even more dangerous is the way we take people around us for granted. The closer a person is to us, the ruder we can be, and more the liberties we take with him or her! Isn’t it true? Most children realise the value of their parents only after they are no more.

When we received our training in gratitude, we found it very silly initially. We were made to go and thank our footwear – a very powerful exercise! But soon we realised that it is gratitude that is the basic requirement for Reiki.

Needless to say, gratitude is a great attitude!

How to use

Gratitude by itself is also very powerful. The idea behind using gratitude is to be grateful to all the things that you have all the time. And to remember to thank God for everything too!

When you establish the awareness of gratitude, you automatically tune yourself with universal energies. Our experiments show that even people who have not learnt Reiki can acquire healing powers and empower their intentions merely by gratitude.

Using gratitude simply means expressing gratitude to things, people and situations whenever you remember. You can start your day by expressing gratitude to what you have, and end your day by expressing gratitude to the events of the day.

Also, it is very important to use gratitude in the toughest situations – when you’re entrapped by negative emotions like anger, fear or frustration. Counting the plus points at such times makes a BIG difference. So, let’s BIG – Be In Gratitude!

Where to use

Everywhere! More specifically, use the gratitude tool while you’re giving Reiki to someone you don’t love unconditionally. When we give Reiki to people who have knowingly or unknowingly hurt us, we block the flow of energy, and shift focus on our thoughts about that person.

However, expressing gratitude just before starting Reiki will clear all such blocks. Also, you might be in an inappropriate state to channel the energy. Expressing gratitude puts you in the right frame of mind.

You can also ask the receiver to express gratitude to the things he feels he should. He should also express gratitude to you, and Reiki as energy. This simple activity will dramatically change results.

Effects and changes

Better flow of Reiki – You will experience the higher flow of Reiki. Since there are no other distractions for the flow of energy, it will be focused and direct.

Faster healing – Subsequently, in a state of gratitude, your mind will be in a relaxed state. This is ideal for quick healing, a scientifically proven fact.

Unconditional love – Being in gratitude enhances your ability to love unconditionally. This will emotionally energise the recipient, who will recover faster.

Attitude shift – You move to a positive attitude, and see the brighter side of things. This attitude shift by itself is very important, and focusing on the good only increases it.

How it works

Gratitude is basically a mental state that can be achieved by anybody. It’s perhaps one of the attitude tools that are simpler than Reiki itself. Gratitude dissolves your internal blocks and opens up the channel of energy within you. What happens then is that you experience a renewed and fresh flow of Reiki energy.

Exercises

See Reiki Prayer (Page 93).

Expressing gratitude simply implies making a mental statement saying, “I am grateful to_____for_____.”

Expressing gratitude to your footwear is a very powerful exercise. We treat footwear as something too insignificant and small, till the day you get shoe bites! People have made such situations pleasant by expressing gratitude to their footwear. So get up at this very moment and express gratitude to your footwear.

Environment thanking. At any point of the day when you pause, especially during your breaks, express gratitude to the things all around – the sun and the sky, or the AC in your room, the atmosphere and nature itself. Spend some time observing things around you and mentally thank each one for serving you. Experience increased energy.

One of the most important uses of gratitude is expressing gratitude to food. Just before you eat, silently thank God, the person who cooked the food and all those factors responsible for the food reaching you. You will notice that the food tastes much better this way.

Recollect the most unpleasant incident of your life. Now with a gratitude mindset, relive the scene in total detail. Find ten reasons to be grateful to the incident. Till you reach a certain number of reasons, keep replaying the scene mentally. In the end, thank the person concerned or the event for the occurrence.

Expressing gratitude to your body at least once in a day is a great lesson in self-love. You can rub your palms together till they are slightly warm and massage your body. Leave no part untouched, and as you touch each part, express gratitude.

Gratitude also gives you freedom from ego. So, express gratitude to all the people and events that were responsible for making you the wonderful person you are today. This will ensure that you are never under the false notion that you are the greatest! In the world of Reiki we are all equal.

With the first tool in your armoury, you have acquired the basic tool for Reiki. Gratitude is to Reiki what a key is to a car – a must to start it. So grab the key of gratitude and start Reiki – this time you’ll drive the car, not push it!

EXPERIENCE JOURNAL

2Giving

“It is in giving that we all receive…”(From the hymn, Make me a channel of your peace)

What is it?

What is giving? It is simply the most powerful tool that we humans have. An apt saying that comes to mind when I talk about giving at seminars is:

God gives…. and forgives

Man gets…. and forgets!

Look around you. If you’ve read the previous chapter, you’ll know there are innumerable things around you for which you need to be grateful. God has given you all these things. Not that God actually comes in the form that you worship Him and hands these things over to you – it is Him working through each one of us. So when your mother is cooking and giving you food, it’s God working through her and feeding you. When a teacher is teaching you, it’s God using that channel to teach you. You keep receiving all the time – do you realise that?

However, when you get something, someone else is also giving something – so the total of giving and receiving in this universe is nil. Every time you get something irrespective of whether you value it or not, there is someone behind that who is the giver. That’s the law of the universe. In order to create a culture of giving in each one of us, the CRITICAL MASS must start giving.
