What Is The Butterfly Reiki System?
The Butterfly Reiki System is quite simply my unique and updated version of Usui Reiki Ryoho. It has been under development since 1997, based upon my 30+ years of experience learning and teaching a wide variety of Asian martial, meditative, and healing arts- including reiki and related spiritual/ energetic arts. This development includes direct input from renowned teachers of mine with ancient Asian lineage, as well as leading modern and innovative spiritual and healing arts teachers.
The Butterfly was chosen as the symbol of the system as it is a symbol of change, transformation, and beauty, which are of course the fruit and flowers of the reiki healing Path. Some of the key principles of the Butterfly Reiki System include:
-It is compassion which is the central force of all reiki healing applications.
-There is absolutely no place for the EGO- I, ME, MINE- in the context of reiki healing.
Technically the Butterfly Reiki System is built from the seven core elements of Usui Reiki Ryoho, what I call the “Seven Jewels of Reiki”: Reiju, Gassho, Gokai, Reiki-ko, Reiki Chiryo-ho, and Jumon/ Shirushi. Included are many well known methods as well as those which are rare/ much less well known; all drawn from my backround in reiki healing arts and related arts. These arts include: Qi Gong, Nei Gong, Min Zin, Meditation, and more. This includes rare spiritual healing arts concepts, knowledge, and methods from my training with the famous Burmese Bando, Yoga, and Min Zin grandmaster, Dr. Maung Gyi. My training with Dr. Gyi was designed specifically to enhance our knowledge and skills of and with reiki healing arts, and includes Concepts, Elements, and Methods for all aspects and applications of reiki healing. Such as rare reiki healing symbols from Dr. Gyi’s tradition/ lineages and a wide variety of methods for self healing, working with others, and spiritual healing. To learn about the Levels of Training in the Butterfly Reiki System (Shoden, Chuden, Okuden, Shinpiden) CLICK here. So the Butterfly Reiki System is composed of the best elements of Usui Reiki Ryoho and Usui Shiki Ryoho as well as other Reiki Methods/Styles, as well as Burmese Min Zin Reiki and Japanese Reiki Methods- both of these elements, Burmese Min Zin Reiki and Japanese Reiki Methods, may also be learned stand-alone by people who are already Reiki Practitioners. Or they could choose to learn the entire integrated Butterfly Reiki System, which unites all this together. People new to Reiki Arts need to start with the Level One Course (Shoden) in the Butterfly Reiki System, or can contact me to try a Reiki Healing Session in person or remote.
For an in depth and comprehensive description of the Butterfly Reiki System including the complete curricula for the first two levels of training (Shoden and Chuden) see my two books from Lotus Press, “The Seven Jewels of Reiki” and “The Compassionate Touch of Reiki: Healing Concepts, Elements, Methods.” And feel free to contact me anytime, “Have Reiki, Will Travel.”
