The Light of Johrei

Johrei is the practice and process of sharing universal energy for the benefit of all. Johrei was introduced to America in 1953, and Johrei Fellowship centers exist throughout the United States. The impetus for all the activities of the Johrei Fellowship is the inspiration of one man, Mokichi Okada, who was born in Japan on December 23, 1882. In his later life those around him, who recognized his vision for a new civilization and worked to bring it about, called him Meishu-sama which could be translated as “Master of Light.”

Mokichi Okada’s inspired writings are practical, simple teachings of common sense that offer guidance in order to achieve health, spiritual upliftment and happiness. Johrei has been compared to Reiki, which also had its’ beginnings in Japan. They are similar in many ways but Johrei works with the energy of fire while Reiki works with the energy of water. Johrei also takes healings a step further into the understanding that we all can increase our health and happiness by bringing beauty into our lives and eating naturally grown foods.

In his lifetime, Mokichi Okada built and inspired the creation of magnificent art museums, filled with inspirational art pieces that he collected. He believed that all art of a higher inspiration or vibration should be shared with everyone and not just cloistered within the collections of the privileged few. He designed exquisite gardens and structures that he envisioned as prototypes of an ideal community. In addition to the art museums and exquisite gardens, Mokichi Okada started ‘Nature Farming’ which is now not only being practiced in Japan but all over the world.
Johrei’s healing energy is given by a Johrei practitioner directing that energy through the palm of the hand at various parts of the body. There is no ‘laying on of hands’ as there is in Reiki. Although Johrei can be received where ever you are – you do not have to be within the immediate vicinity of the practitioner – one is encouraged to receive Johrei at a Johrei Center as the vibrational energy is much greater and has a much more profound effect on the receiver.

If you are interested in receiving Johrei please contact me via email at adlbrand@yahoo.com and I will get in touch with you as soon as possible. Please make reference to ‘Johrei session’ in the subject line so it is not automatically directed to the spam folder. Thank You.

Thank you for sharing your time with ME

Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese technique for relaxation and the reduction of stress thereby promoting healing. It is administered by a Reiki practitioner through the “laying on hands” and is rooted in the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through each of us and this “life force energy” is what determines life. It’s this “life force energy” that determines both our physical and emotional stability. If our “energy” is low, then we are more likely to feel stress or become ill, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.

Dr. Mikao Usui is the founder of the Reiki system of natural healing. Reiki is a combination of two Japanese words – Rei means “God’s Wisdom” or “Higher Power” and Ki means “Life Force Energy”. The practice of Reiki is actually “spiritually guided life force energy.” While Reiki is not considered to be a religion, it still imparts a need to live and act in a way that promotes a harmony with ones self and others. Reiki has no dogma attached to its principals and there are no religious beliefs you must believe in order to learn or practice Reiki. Reiki will work whether you believe in it or not because Reiki comes from a Higher Power outside of oneself.

Reiki classes are available to those seeking a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement, but it is not taught in the usual sense. It is transferred to a student through an “attunement” given by a Reiki Master during a Reiki class. It has been taught to people of all ages and backgrounds and its use is not dependent on one’s intellectual capacity or spiritual development and therefore is available to everyone. One of the most popular forms for Reiki Practitioners is practicing Reiki with Angels. Practitioners using this method follow the same format as regular practitioners but with the added benefit of calling on specific angels to assist them. Reiki has been proven to be effective in helping virtually every known illness as it works in conjunction with medical and therapeutic techniques to relieve symptoms, side effects and promote recovery. Many recipients of a Reiki treatment have stated that they feel a wonderful energy or glowing radiance that flows through and around them. They also report they feel relaxed and less stressful after a session. Reiki is designed to treat the entire person as a complete entity. This includes the body, the mind and the spirit.
