As we know, both science and spirituality have proven and confirmed that everything that exists on this earth is composed of energy. From tables and chairs to plants, animals, humans, and nature in general. Energy is denser and vibrates at a lower frequency in objects and animals, and lighter and faster in plants and nature.
Reiki is the name given to the primordial life energy that has always existed in the universe and in every living being, including humans. Without life energy, we could not be formed as we are today, nor could we breathe, walk, or exist in this physical body. Without life energy, a tree cannot thrive and grow; it would just wither away. Therefore, Reiki or life energy is inherently present in everyone and is the core of our existence. Inside each of us is a miniature universe, and the energy operates according to the natural flow of cosmic energy: for example, if the life energy of the universe flows clockwise, then the life energy within you must also flow clockwise. Therefore, all diseases, psychological difficulties, and life challenges can be viewed as results of prolonged energy blockages.
Reiki can be utilized and applied in daily life as long as we connect with Reiki, or the life energy within us, to resolve or accelerate the resolution of any issues.
Thiên Kim gives an example of someone facing financial problems or career difficulties to clarify these points. Despite having a stable income, Person A always faces deficits, unexpected expenses, or economic troubles, even though he has tried various ways to improve the situation, from saving money, and diversifying income sources, to taking courses on investment or personal finance management to enhance his knowledge. Yet, his situation remains unchanged. From an energy perspective, this indicates that he has internal blockages leading to conflicts and blockages with the energy of money (as mentioned earlier, everything that exists in this world is composed of energy, so money is also a form of energy). The manifestation of these blockages in his physical financial life is merely the result of internal energy blockages.
Why does Thiên Kim say this? Because initially, the financial shortfall may have come as a signal or challenge for him to pause and reflect inwardly to find the reason. However, he did not pay attention to this suggestion, did not listen to his inner voice, and gradually thought, "I always have financial shortages. Despite my efforts to improve, things are not getting better. It’s worrying. Will I always be short of money like this?" And then, the energy from this thought grew stronger each day, existing and developing within him, making his financial situation increasingly worse. In Eastern medicine or Eastern culture, this is referred to as the blockage of qi. Initially, all problems and thoughts exist in the form of ideas, but over time, as these thoughts and ideas are nurtured, they gradually become habits and then manifest in the physical body, which we then call disease. This is similar to the energy of curses, where a person can suggest, create energy, and direct cursing thoughts towards someone else, and gradually form blockages or strange objects in the body of the cursed person. Isn’t it strange? It turns out that financial shortages, career failures in life, or diseases are also signs related to pathologies in the energy body.
If you have learned Reiki, you can fully apply Reiki to explore why or what has led to these results. Reiki is an extremely effective and simple tool for delving into your inner self. When you turn inward to observe, instead of previously observing external phenomena, your awareness becomes clearer and more transparent when you look within, similar to how Master Mikao Usui used Reiki for his enlightenment journey. As a result, you will always be in a state of clear recognition, identifying without bias or preconceptions, and begin to see the truth about yourself: who you are, how you are living, why you are facing the problems you have. Why do you act this way in certain situations? From this clear awareness, you will gradually change your perception and transform your attitudes and behaviors correctly.
When you turn inward and connect with Reiki, with the life energy, you will naturally feel and know what the smooth flow of energy is like. You will intuitively realize where your blockages are and why you have those blockages. It’s like looking up at a dark sky and seeing two streams of life energy before you: one of the universe and one of yourself. Naturally, through observing and comparing the flow of these two energy sources, you will see and understand the causes of your blockages or any issues you face. You will recognize the causes and effects manifested in the present, expressed through your actions, words, and thoughts.
These erroneous causes lead to your thoughts and perspectives on the issue becoming entrenched, creating a skewed viewpoint and causing your actions to become misguided, and consequently, the results will also be misguided, as illustrated by the financially struggling person mentioned by Thiên Kim above. This deviation is not only incorrect for yourself but also represents a deviation from the greater cosmos, meaning you are walking a path that is contrary to the great universe, or humorously put, you are living a life against nature.
In summary, all blockages, diseases, or life troubles can be explained in terms of energy and vibration frequencies. Low vibration frequencies associated with negative energies will erode your emotional and physical well-being, whereas high vibration frequencies can nourish and positively develop your emotions and spirit.
This is evident when you are in an airy, green, and fresh environment, as Thiên Kim mentioned, plants and nature always have light, high, and fast vibrations. Compare this to staying in a dim, airless, and damp room. Although people know Reiki as a healing tool, in essence, when you know how to harmonize with natural energy and use this natural energy favorably, everything in life, as well as self-development, internal strength development, or even intellectual development, will involve Reiki - the pure and primordial life energy of the universe.
