Ma’heo’o
Reiki
pronounced: Mah-hay-oh-oh Ray-key
Ma’heo’o
Reiki is a broad term that includes healing beliefs
and practices of hundreds of indigenous tribes of
North America as well as tribal cultures from around
the world. It combines spirituality, herbal
medicine, and rituals that are used to treat people
with medical and emotional conditions. From the
Native American perspective, medicine is more about
healing the person than curing a disease.
Traditional healers aim to "make whole" by restoring
well-being and harmonious relationships with the
community and the Spirit of Nature, which is
sometimes called Mother Earth and also with the
Creator of all life which is also known as God,
Great Spirit or the Great Mystery. Native American
healing is based on the belief that everyone and
everything on earth is interconnected, and every
person, animal, and plant has a spirit or essence.
Even an object, such as a river or rock, and even
the earth itself, is considered to have this kind of
spirit.
Reiki then, by the above definition, is a form of
traditional healing. Reiki can be said to be the
gift of vitality and self preservation encoded into
the genetic makeup of everything. It is the higher
self's connection to the universal energy that
breathes life into all living things. We are all
born with the wisdom to heal and preserve life. Our
Ancestors used and relied upon their own abilities
and instincts as a daily occurrence in their lives.
Unfortunately, these basic skills were forgotten or
not passed down to future generations for one reason
or another thus is rarely used today.
Humanity in its relentless pursuit
of progress has given up its Birthright, our most
precious and natural gifts. There is a non physical
energy that gives life to every living organism. For
many thousands of years Our Ancestors have known of
this energy and have sought to develop ways to
harness its power to heal and influence our lives.
The Japanese call this energy Ki although it is
known by many different names in other cultures. The
term Reiki literally means universal Life Force
energy. Whatever you term this energy, we carry it
in and around our bodies from the moment we are
conceived. Quantum Physics has confirmed its
existence, and with the aid of Kirlan photography we
are now able to see this energy. The aim of Ma’heo’o
Reiki is to bring this awareness into public view of
the Mass consciousness, to promote Ma'heo'o Reiki
for use in healing the human condition as well as
Mother Earth and all her inhabitants so together we
can Re-member and Re-discover our Birthright and
continue our Spiral Journey towards the Creator.
