Reiki

Reiki practitioners channel energy in a particular pattern to heal and harmonize. Unlike other healing therapies based on the premise of a human energy field, Reiki seeks to restore order to the body whose vital energy has become unbalanced.

Reiki energy has several basic effects: it brings about deep relaxation, destroys energy blockages, detoxifies the system, provides new vitality in the form of healing universal life energy, and increases the vibrational frequency of the body.

The laying of hands is used in Reiki therapy also as in spiritual healing. There is a difference though. In spiritual healing, a person with a strong energy field places his or her hands above a particular part of the recipient's body in order to release energy into it. So, here the healer is the one who is sending out the energy. In Reiki, however, the healer places the hands above the recipient; however, it is the recipient that draws the energy as needed. Thus, in this case, the individual being healed takes an active part in the healing process as opposed to having a passive part in spiritual healing. The individual takes responsibility for his or her healing. The recipient identifies the needs and cater to them by drawing energy as needed.

Although there are a few positions in which the practitioner is in contact with the patient (such as cradling the head), most Reiki treatments do not involve actual touching. The practitioner holds his or her hands a few inches or farther away from the patient's body and manipulates the energy field from there.

Take action pay it forward

"Just for today, I will not be angry.
Just for today, I will not worry.
Just for today, I will give thanks for my many blessings.
Just for today, I will do my work honestly.
Just for today, I will be kind to every living thing"

Kisses for Lapierre - Whistle your way to the cup !!!

Max Lapierre makes the funniest faces and is very entertaining to watch. The canucks in gereral are a very annoying team to play and like to get under the skin of the opposition. Burrows and kesler try hard to play whistle to whistle but sometimes the urge to talk smack is too great and they give in. Most people dont know this but the sedins love to annoy and troll the other team too. How many time have you seen Henrik give the opposing goalie a snow shower lol.

Burrows, kesler the sedins where all taught how to troll from the great jarrko ruttu. I dont understand y the media and people get so upset about the canucks antics. I personally think its funny and very entertaining. But, the un-original bruins turned the finger taunt into a side show. If they did it first it be cool but there not as witty as max Lapierre and had to copy him.

So the moral of the story is Max Lapierre shouldn't have too play whistle to whistle and I really hope AV or anyone else in the canucks organization isn't telling lappy to play whistle to whistle. He gets under the skin of the Bruins advantage Canucks. Just let the boys play no1 should be telling them how to play its all up to them now.

June 2011 Eclipse

Astrological Trends for JUNE 2011

The Hub of Activity

By Dipali Desai
The month of June blasts off with a turbo-charged Solar Eclipse in Gemini at 11 degrees on June 1st, 2011. Quick zip fly by of communications happening. Share your ideas, exchange information and networking highlighted. The influence of a Solar Eclipse is felt for over a twelve month phase if you have set a clear intention. On June 14th/15th a Total Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius at 24 degrees will be felt on an emotional level. This influence of the Lunar Eclipse is noticeable waves for up to six months from the day of. We must examine which limiting beliefs keep emotional wounds festering.
Drifting into daydreams, shying away from mundane details we feel the energy shift of Neptune (June 3rd/4th) and Chiron (June 8th/9th) in Pisces both move into Retrograde phase. Our energy in relation to those themes becomes introspective. We may feel a bit disoriented or spacey as well as sensitivities increase. It is wise not to over-indulge in alcohol or mind-altering substances such a drugs as there may be unusual reactions. Take your time to ground your energy before venturing out into the world.
Other big news on the astrological front is Saturn in Libra at 10 degrees going Direct / energy moving outward in expression again. Wherever Saturn in Libra is planted for now, a seriousness or concentrated energy may be felt in tangible ways. We will begin to address relationships of all types again and make concrete changes to establish harmony. Jupiter enters Taurus until 2012 and activates a “Trine” aspect to Pluto in Capricorn retrograde.
Upside down, right side up, unleashing creative energy, theTides of Change moving things all around and washing away what is no longer serving us. Some food for thought: The Solstice gateway at 0 degrees Cancer, (considered to be a power point), is a connector from the Total Lunar Eclipse on June 15th to the third Solar Eclipse in Cancer on July 1st while keeping the Uranus Pluto Square buzzing with energy! The month ends with rockin' and rolling energies towards incredible new beginnings and turn of events helping us to get our appetite for Life going. Stay tuned...

Charlie Chaplin's Smile

                                              

"A day without laughter is a day wasted."

Charlie Chaplin

One of the few true entertainers. 

He truly believed in the power of communication - and he didn't needed words for that.

His work is always a reminder of the simple most powerful things - love, smile, kindness. He created a world in which word are obsolete and deceiving. Emotions through body movement is the main attraction and the true expression of the soul.

He dedicated his life to entertaining. He was an innovator. He was a person always looking to better himself as a professional and a person.

And he believed in his art fully. 

After the premiere of "City Lights" released in 1931, two years after the sound films took conquered Hollywood, in the enthusiastic applause of the public he allegedly whispered to himself "I won".

It was the triumph of a spirit that would change the world with a smile.

“To truly laugh, you must be able to take your pain, and play with it!”

Charlie Chaplin

Turkish Lullaby

Spoty spoty, little baby with beauty spots
Baby with pretty pretty hands with henna
His/her mother father loves him/her very much
Sleeps and grows (my) coddled/petty baby

Spotty spotty sporden,
Calves walked into vegetable garden
Gardener, go get them out
Don't let them eat the cabbage

Spotty spotty spotter,
A moon is born from mother
Whom God bestowed with all beauties
May God save him/her from evil eyes

Chronos - Saturn

Saturn’s Greek name is Chronos, meaning time. Saturn gets a bad rap for causing delays, heartache, pain, and frustrations, until we submit our will and do what is demanded by the world in which we live. The planet Saturn represents the limitations, of our bodies, the consequences of our actions, and the laws that govern them, in the world that we live in. Karma, keeping the records, and noting all your actions is what Saturn does. It is the last planet of our universe that we can actually see with our naked eye, it is our limit. The planets that come after, like Uranus, Neptune and Pluto we can’t see with the naked eye. They are spiritual and influence us on a spiritual level. While we are on Earth, we have to bow to the ways of this world. We don’t have to agree we just have to be humble and humble our wills. We are ruled by time, our bodies succumb to time, and it is time that ultimately takes us. What are delays but time interrupted, standing still or seemingly in reverse? Denied that which we want, until we do what is appropriate, called for and demanded of us. Saturn doesn’t ask you to agree, just submit. When you were a child your father didn’t ask you for your opinion, he said do it or else. Once you did what your father wanted you to do, father gave his approval. So does Saturn. It rules hard work, very hard work. As we grow older your physical father cannot make you do things, Saturn does. By doling out the consequences of this world, he is your father. Once you can govern yourself though, you don’t need your physical father or Saturn to discipline and guide you. Once you can discipline yourself, guide yourself, and then are you ready to go beyond Saturn to the outer realms of Uranus, Neptune and to the planet Pluto. Then you can move confidently and safely into the spiritual realms. 
Saturn demands that we submit our wills to the realistic, material plane, and bend in humility to something bigger than ourselves. Saturn rules the knees, knees bend and bow down. Saturn is also exalted in Libra the sign of marriage and relationships and no where else are we tested more and required to submit ourselves to another. Sometimes, we as humans like to dive right into thing things we are not ready or prepared for, and run away when it gets too tough. The very things we desire most are held back, and denied under Saturn’s influence. We haven’t learned enough about it, we may be going about obtaining it the wrong way, or we lack the experience, we may have been unwilling to subjugate ourselves or bend, bow and act humbly enough. We might not deserve that which we desire so much. So Saturn delays the activity. Delays make us think more about what we want or feel we lost. They humble us. Saturn answers the question, “Why?” Saturn’s lessons are not in vain though and after the tears and the struggles, we bend, and submit to the world and Saturn gives back three fold, it’s up to us to decide that if after all that time we still need or want that which Saturn delayed. Saturn is the gateway to the spirit world, towards greater spirituality and truly being a spiritual being. Saturn is the door to what is beyond it; beyond Saturn and our world. This defines one of the differences between Vedic, or Eastern astrology which doesn't’t acknowledge or use the planets past Saturn. Eastern or Vedic astrology, is concerned with marriages, and succeeding in this world and fulfilling material ambitions. It is concerned with the visible or the world in which we see. Western astrology is concerned with the invisible would as much as the visible world. Western astrology goes beyond, the planet Saturn and deals with the invisible influences of all the planets past Saturn. The world we don’t see, beginning with Uranus. You cannot succeed in the spiritual world without hard work, succeeding in the material world, on the earthly plane, in the visible. You have to prove yourself worthy before you are allowed past the gate keeper Saturn, to the outer realms and the invisible. How can you succeed on the spiritual plane if you cannot bend to this world? You don’t and you can't.
We are in a pivotal time in our collective incarnations that demand we submit our wills to the material world that we live in, and then move on the outer realms of our spiritual destinies. It's no coincidence that we are experiencing a financial meltdown of sorts. We have to stop and fix the things of this world before we can call ourselves spiritual beings. It's no coincidence then that Saturn is opposing Uranus, standing at the threshold of our spirituality and saying "focus on what's wrong with the Earth first". Don't ignore the financial problems or the corruption or the filth that's around you. Work hard, clean it up, fix it and then and only then can you get your freedom, to go beyond, into the spiritual realms.

Cup of Enlightenment

Hyakuten says:


A cup of tea …
a cup of enlightenment!"
A cup of tea can make us rise above the duality. In an act of having a cup of tea there is no good/no bad, no gain/no loss, no success/no failure, nothing but the absolute equality. While we enjoy a cup of tea we are in time and space of calm and peacefulness beyond the duality, and that is a state of Satori or enlightenment.

Komyo Reiki Kai® Purpose -As we believe that the basis of genuine happiness is good health, we strive to improve the mind and body, and maintain optimal health by means of daily Reiki Ryoho practice.

Komyo Reiki® is a gateway to this spiritual awakening as well as to "Anshin Ritsumei" (absolute inner peace).
