(Its not a religious concept of therapy but a non religious approach towards healing.Due to lots of misunderstandings ,misconceptions & wrong beliefs about reiki , i have specified my reiki style specially for Muslims)
Reiki is the technique in which we shift vital energy through hands on healing & at distance too.
As it is considered that every living thing has different energy centers in his body ,& illness is caused by imbalances & blockage in these energy centers.
So the person can be cured by balancing these energy centers & by eliminating any blockages which causes energy to not flowing properly in the body.
It is used to recover all problems physical ,emotional & psychological in nature.
Person gets relieved at once after reiki session .
Even cancer patients are taking benefits from it.
But the problem is the usage of different symbols in reiki which in fact don't have any clear meanings but creates a lot of contradictions.
The uniqueness of my reiki ,is its non symbolic attunement & healing technique.
Everyone has this healing power in him .What i have to do is to make him realize & to get him proper guideline to attune him self so that he can use this gift at hand to heal himself & others.
Hi Arfa Zahid, welcome to the forums.

I am a little confused by your opening statement, Reiki is non religious in its nature, so it does not matter if someone practices a religion or not to make use of it, as you say every human being has the ability to learn how to heal! So I am left wondering why you feel that a human being who chooses to embrace the Muslim religion would require a different type of Reiki to those who do not?

Unfortunately that is not an explanation of Reiki par say, it is an explanation of energy healing in general, it is not specific to Reiki which uses a form of energy healing to work with but not as you have outlined it.
But the problem is the usage of different symbols in reiki which in fact don't have any clear meanings but creates a lot of contradictions.
The Reiki symbols do what they were designed to do, which is to allow someone to work through them without having to learn how to heal first, they do not require clear meanings, then just need activating so that they can do what they were programmed to do.
The uniqueness of my reiki ,is its non symbolic attunement & healing technique.

There already exists an earlier form of Reiki (though it was not called Reiki) that does not use attunements of symbols, it relies upon the person developing themselves so that they can directly create a healing flow should they wish to help other people, though that is not emphasised in that system.
If you are not giving people a Reiki attunement or empowerment, then you are not giving them a connection to the Reiki modality, the modality is not the healing power, it is the framework that people use to heal, but as you rightly say the healing comes from the fullness of self.
Also if you are not giving them an attunement to the framework that you personally utilise, then they do not require an attunement to self in order to learn to heal, they just need to connect with the fullness of self and make a choice to heal.
So I think you need to think on what you do and what you are going to call it so that people do not become confused, people do call all sorts of things Reiki, but to my understanding there was only two modalities that Usui created, everything else is not Reiki, it might be healing but in my opinion, it should not be called Reiki.
I agree with everything Paul says.
However this statement is the one that really caught me...
But the problem is the usage of different symbols in reiki which in fact don't have any clear meanings but creates a lot of contradictions.
I'd be interested to know why you feel the symbols of Reiki don't have a clear meaning and why they cause contradictions?
All Love and Reiki Hugs
Clarification
Hi Paul and Energylz,
Thanks for your clarification. This direction is vital to advise those starting Reiki and who haven`t found this site.
In my short experience, Indian and Japanese correspondants have said as much as you have. All the more reason to have a single, central, school of Usui Reiki.
To my mind, contradictions can occur when there are different forms of Reiki, splinter branches if you will. For me, this version works remarkable well. We must all be talking off the same page ... as the saying goes.:)
