Jikiden Reiki @RLC

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I have read books claiming there are no successors of Reiki in Japan.

• There are, Mr Yamaguchi, the founder of Jikiden Reiki, has been practicing it for over 35 years and his mother practiced for over 65 years.

Q: What made Mr Yamaguchi to start Jikiden Reiki Seminars?

• Some Reiki masters who promote Western Reiki in Japan recommended that he do it. They wanted Mr Yamaguchi to disseminate the original ideas of Reiki from Japan, its birthplace, to as many as possible all over the world. He and his mother decided to replicate Dr. Hayashi’s seminars as closely as possible.

Q: Is it different from Western Reiki?

• Mr Yamaguchi believes Reiki spread in the world today was transformed dramatically when it was introduced to the West. He doesn’t mean that Reiki in the West is wrong or ineffective but he has an urge to introduce the original simple Reiki which is very effective in treating physical problems and great ideas behind it.
• The content taught in Jikiden Reiki is different from that taught is Western Reiki, so we would not like to make any comparison.
• All teachers and assistant teachers need to repeat attending seminars and the required training, and all teachers are attuned by Mr Yamaguchi himself, in order to ensure the seminars are taught in same way as delivered by different Jikiden Reiki teachers, i.e., the way that Ushi and Dr Hayashi taught.
• Jikiden reiki also has distance healing, but there is no “distance attunement” in Jikiden reiki.
• All prices for Jikiden reiki seminars in different countries are approved by Jikiden Reiki headquarter in Japan.
