Copy of Reiki Levels
Reiki Levels
· Reiki, as originally taught in the "West" (outside of Japan), consisted of three levels:
· First Degree, or Reiki I. A First Degree practitioner can do hands-on treatments.
· Second Degree, or Reiki II. In addition to hands-on treatments, a Second Degree practitioner is able to send the Reiki energy to anyone, anywhere in the world. This involves the use of special symbols.
· Reiki Master, or Reiki III. In addition to hands-on and distant treatments, a Reiki Master is able to initiate others to First and Second Degrees, and Reiki Mastership.
· Since the time of Reiki's introduction to the West, offshoots and variants have developed which differ from the original three-level system.
