Mr. Motoyama believes that the storage of energy in the chakras is an essential part of highly effective energy healing. I know that some RMs and Reiki practitioners believe in practicing a chakra-activation exercise as part of the healer development process. I wonder if anyone here is now practicing or has practiced such an exercise, and if so: which chakras are most important to the development of the healer? Thanks.

These energy points are formed by lines or chords or vibrations of energy that intersect at "that point" in what we might understand as the right place and right time... that is to say we really don't know the when-why-or where's of its origins, but we are relatively certain that's how things appear at this point in our evolutionary awareness. Each intersection forms a point, and that point is commonly called a Chakra by Western/European standards. Eastern systems call them tsubo's, or acupuncture points. For the purposes of this essay, the Western system will be used and the points will be called Chakras (ref. 1 / ref. 2). There are seven Major Chakras that exist in the immediate physical body. There is no relevant numbering system assigned to these chakras except by the author of the given text (the naming of these areas varies just as much). Beginning at the base of the spine and moving upwards, the chakras are: The Root, Genital, Solar Plexus, Heart, Throat, Third Eye, and Crown...."

I don't see how that would apply to Reiki, based on my current understanding of it. Qi practice has always worked with a limited supply of energy. Reiki gives us access to an unlimited universal source. As one continues to channel Reiki on a regular basis, the chakras will heal and begin to function at their highest potential. Chakra "activation" as it may be called is the result of regular Reiki practice. No intent or awareness of it is required - it's just a side effect of the practice. > I wonder if anyone here is now practicing or has practiced such an > exercise, and if so: which chakras are most important to the > development of the healer? Thanks. All of them, in my opinion. Being able to focus attention/awareness to a single chakra or an isolated set of chakram is nice if the person can do it (certainly not necessary), however the more chakram are operational and fully functional the greater healing will occur for both parties. Where the person focuses his/her awareness may or may not make a difference in the healing... think of driving a car. Focusing on the steering wheel often makes the new driver feel more secure, believing that looking at the wheel as it is being turned helps the process but eventually he/she will look upwards to see what's going on outside the car... being aware of the entire driving process is more important than focusing on a single point to drive. Another example is that when we drive, is it easier to steer the car looking at a point closest to the hood of the car, or a great distance ahead? Looking out towards the vanishing point of the road allows greater control and "smooth" steering. Reiki works in the same way - all we need to do is have the intent and the energies begin flowing. Whether or not we are aware of what chakra is most stimulated by the energy does not matter, any more than it matters we be consciously aware of how many times the spark plugs spark each moment. If we are channeling and begin to notice a chakra in our mind/body, then usually it is the weakest and least functional (when your car is operating without problems do you notice it as much as when something begins to go wrong???). Channeling Reiki will result in gradual activation and unification of all the chakram comprising our mind and body whether or not a person is aware of it. Patrick Z, what are your thoughts on this?

Cleaning cloggy and closed chakras seems to work well. I use a whopping great big selenite wand to do this, as selenite is one of the few crystals which goes through all the auric levels simultaneously.Just point and think correct colour, and it will do the work for you. Between two experienced healers, zapping each other with matching selenite wands is huge fun, expecially along a powerful ley line. A friend and I did this in an ancient church a few years ago, and a stranger accidentally walked in on us from a side door. She glanced down, staring across the blue line we had just drawn between us, walked up to it, paused, then ducked and passed under it, laughing. All this whilst apologising and discussing the weather, so on a subconscious level, it really does work! A regular selenite 'tune-up' works well for me and for clients. >OTOH, my first degree teacher gave me an unasked for "bonus", some >sort of energy treatment that, according to her, once given resides >within the person for life and serves the function of repairing and >maintaining all the chakras in tippy top condition. Since I can't see >or otherwise sense chakra energies (at least I haven't figure out how >yet) I'll have to take her word for it. Let you down a bit with the nasty cough, though, didn't it (rear of heart chakra -lungs, plus rear of throat!)? ! I hope you are feeling better now! I like the 'Hands of Light' (Barbara Brennan) approach to chakra operation, although I disagree with her rules about which direction each one should spin. Some people operate better with them all spinning the same direction, sucking in energy from the front (and crown) and discharging waste through the rear (and base). It can all be checked and respun with a pendulum, although selenite is easier. I'm not that keen on crystalwork, but a few of them are so powerful that I keep them locked into boxes. Working crystals have a profound presence on the Astral, eg crystal-rich granite lumps like Stonehenge and Egyptian obelisks. I have seen genuine damage done by so-called crystal healers. Basically, they just magnify intent. If a little jealousy or dislike colours the crystalworker's compassion, then it's like hitting someone you don't like with a big stick. Respect is needed.

I hope you are feeling >better now! You hit the nail on the head with that one! Guess I don't need to see it to believe it after all, since it's not doing what it was supposed to do. So I wonder what it did do? I did definitely feel it when she gave it to me, as I was resisting it all the way. Ah, well. No sense worrying about the past or the future. The time to be is now. :-) And yes, I'm feeling much better today, thank you for asking. Still pitching the occasional coughing fit, but nothing like the other day. I figure I'll be right as rain in a few more days. >I'm not that keen on crystalwork, but a few of them are so powerful >that I keep them locked into boxes.
