THE
ETERNAL BLISS -- KARMA AND REIKI
Who am I? What am I? Why am I born in this world? What do I gain
in my life? How do I gain? Do I gain or do I lose? Many such
questions bother us. If it is not bothering you, you should start
bothering about it to know the right answers to these questions.
Animals and plants live without thinking all these because they
have no power of thought. A human being has to know the answers
because he has to uplift himself from the present frequency to a
higher frequency, which we call, being nearer to God.
I am the AATHMAN and not the external visible body. Whatever is
visible is perishable and the invisible is imperishable. The
imperishable can create the perishable, but the perishable cannot
create the imperishable. Since the AATHMAN is I, one should
perform his or her karmas in order to fulfil the requirements of
the AATHMAN. The characteristics of AATHMAN are Pure Love and
Truth. Therefore, all the karmas should be executed through and
towards Pure Love and Truth. Karma is nothing but experiencing.
Every one is born to execute certain karmas. The AATHMAN gains
knowledge only through Karmas. Karmas are classified as major
karmas and minor karmas. The major karmas are determined by one
before birth at the astral plane and the minor karmas after being
born on the earth. When one does all good karmas everyday, that
becomes his "samskaara". This samskaara or the
resultant of the karmas is the one from where the thoughts are
evoked, because the thoughts are the experiences gained by one
through his karmas, and these thoughts lead our lives. We all
know that all our actions are the result of our experiences
transmitted through the media of thought to the mind/brain to
analyze and transmit to the body. Hence karmas should be good.
Good and bad are the terms related to the AATHMAN whose character is
Love and Truth. The designing of the major karmas in the astral
plane is also done based on the karmas already executed and
choosing from what is left yet to experience. An ordinary human
being never gets an opportunity to understand his karmas and he
does not know what he is supposed to do in his life. He does
everything on trial and error method. Why does one waste time in
trial and error method? Why not find out the karmas and the
method of its execution?
One should find his own Guru in order to understand the above
principle or "thathwa". Each one of us has seven Gurus:
five invisible and two visible on the earth. Out of the two, one
is a Guru and the other is a Guide. A Guru is the one who gives
you enlightenment. He is the one who teaches your AATHMA. GU is
darkness and RU is brightness. Hence Guru is a person who takes
you out of the darkness and brings you into light. Guru is the
one who has already reached the peak through his
"saadhana". He sits there and shows the light to the
disciple who is supposed to walk through the path shown by Guru.
Belief, dedication, respect and oneness (advaitha) are the
qualities the disciple should have to know the Guru and follow
him. One should have a very strong desire to see and know his
Guru. Guru is not only necessary but also always present
according to the need of one's spiritual unfoldment. This
probably led us to the widely known saying: "When the seeker is ready - the
Guru is present."
The Guru comes to the disciple,
but the disciple has to identify the Guru. When one gets answers
to all the queries one had in mind for a long time, one feels
light, happy and contented when seated beside the Guru, when
there is a pull towards the Guru, identify him, recognize that he
is your Guru and follow him. Unconditional surrender to the Guru
is most important. One can understand the Guru only when one
becomes one with the Guru and follow his footprints for
self-realization and self-upliftment. "UPASANA" is
absolutely necessary for a student to understand and follow.
According to Upanishads and Sanathan Dharma, a disciple is ready
for upasana only when he releases his "ahankara". Once
upasana has been acquired, one can conceive the knowledge
(Brahma jnana), which the Guru imparts. Guru is the light who
shows you the path, driving away the darkness in your life.
Learning is a never-ending process and so long as you have to
learn, you have to have a Guru too.
All of us in our lives wait for a
chance to understand and experience the above so that the life is
meaningful, purposeful and complete. There are various methods to
achieve the results. A fool proof method to grow, to realize, to
heal i.e., to have a wholistic healing of mind, body and spirit,
one should learn and practice REIKI (Pranashakti). The advantage
of Reiki over other methods is that it automatically removes the
negativities from the subtle body and allows the subtle body to
reveal its reality, which are Truth and Love, thereby cleansing
the thoughts vis a vis the mind and body. Reiki can do this
easily, as this is the easiest and fool proof method for
increasing the vibrations in the electro-magnetic field of the
human. The energy and vibrations are the two vital factors in a
human to heal any thing and everything, whether in mind, body and
spirit.
Reiki is not merely a physical healing system. Reiki transforms
you. Many who tried to transform themselves had to undergo
rigorous methods to train the mind, body and spirit for long,
long time, but still could not attain perfection. Whereas
practicing Reiki leads you to a high frequency of vibrations,
which ultimately leads you to the healing of mind, body and
spirit without forcing your mind to change. Reiki allows the body
and spirit to undergo the natural change to its origin, to its
reality.
Reiki has to be experienced to know. All such knowledge is
imparted, not taught. A student should be able to receive it and
accept it and only then can one be a part of the impart.
Explore, experience, reveal, realize and be a part of Reiki.
