Visiting the Kimono Exhibition at the NGV with friends was a lovely break from the norm. It was rather surprising that the older kimonos were exuding quite a strong energy, whereas the more contemporary kimonos did not. I can only guess that there were more artisans working on the older garments from dyeing the fabric, painted/dyed/embroidered, and sewn by hand.

I love Japan and all things Japanese. I'm still learning a lot about the culture. I am looking forward to my solo trip to Japan in October.

I am very excited to read this book. It is a translation of a 1933 book by Tomita Kaiji, a member of the Osaka chapter of the Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai in the 1920s. Tomito left the Gakkai to develop his own hands-on therapy and published this book.

Thank you, Justin B. Stein and Reiki Centers of America for publishing this book.

'Spiritual Practice is not just sitting and meditating. Practice is looking, thinking, touching, drinking, eating and talking. EVERY act, every breath, and every step can be practice and can help us to become more ourselves'...Thich Nhat Hanh

Spiritual practice cannot evolve unless it is taken into every day life. Practice on our cushion, meditation room or Reiki practice room can only take spiritual practice so far. The greatest test and place of advancement is practice moment by moment, day by day. Inamoto Hyakuten, the founder of Komyo ReikiDo, speaks of Dojo. Do meaning Way or Path in a spiritual context and Jo is place. Dojo is not four walls. Dojo is moving with us, wherever we go, wherever we are. Everything in each day, is an opportunity to expand spiritual practice and becomes our Dojo.

'A donkey carrying a pile of holy books is still a donkey'...Zen Proverb

A Reiki practitioner or teacher is a person, nothing lofty. Reiki is a part of who we are, and that applies to everyone whether we realise it or not.

'Have good trust in yourself...not in the One that you think you should be, but the One that you are'.........Maezumi Roshi

'Should' is a word that refers to judgement and is not used in a good way, particularly when aimed at ourselves. Who we are is not in the realm of the past where the 'Shoulds' reside. Who we are is here and now and can only be realised moment by moment.

In the Reiki Principles, the phrase 'Today only' reminds you to be attentive to where and what you do throughout the day. Being mindful of every moment is a way forward, and it means not thinking about the past or the future. In each moment, you can connect to who you are more and more with diligent practice. There, you can find a little calm instead of getting lost in the 'Shoulds'.

'Preoccupied with a single leaf you won't see the tree. Preoccupied with a single tree you will miss the entire forest. Don't be preoccupied with a single spot. See everything in it's entirety, effortlessly. That is what it means to truly see'.....Takehiko Inoue

Message Shared by KRD Shihan Sally Wain was a quote by Pema Chodron, about how ‘awakening the heart is the work of a lifetime.’

A reminder for us all, that our daily Reiki practice is our diligent work of a lifetime. That is our ‘spiritual practice’ of Reiki. As such, Reiki is a powerful catalyst for spiritual growth, awakening our hearts to new levels of awareness, compassion, and inner peace.

'Remember that this is not something we do once or twice. Interrupting our destructive habits and awakening our heart is the work of a lifetime'....Pema Chodron.⁠
⁠
The basis of spiritual practice is dealing with habits stemming from the intellectual mind. As Hyakuten Inamoto, founder of Komyo ReikiDo, says, there is no diploma in spiritual practice. While it takes a lifetime, connecting with the heart becomes easier with consistent practice over a long period. Reiki practice is a shortcut to the heart, bringing peace through quietening the mind. ⁠
