Karuna Reiki®
Karuna is a Sanskrit word used in Hinduism, Buddhism and Zen. It translates to mean ‘any action taken to diminish the suffering of others’ and could also be translated as “compassionate action” When individuals experience enlightenment, they report that all beings are known as one. Therefore, it is natural to extend compassionate action or Karuna® to everyone without distinction as we are all one.
Karuna® is the motivating quality of all enlightened beings working to end suffering on Earth. They continually send unlimited amounts of healing energy and guidance to us, but not all are receptive to it. As you develop Karuna® in yourself, you are helping others, and you will also become more receptive to the Karuna® being sent by all enlightened beings. Thus your own healing is quickened as well. Karuna Reiki® opens you to work more closely with all enlightened beings, including those who are physically present and those who are in spirit. Most students find this system more powerful than Usui Reiki. The energy has a more definite feeling to it. It works on the emotional and spiritual levels and helps one become more grounded.
