Mana, Fourteenth Symbol of the Advanced Karuna® Reiki Method
A POWERFUL MODERN EVOLUTION OF DR. MIKAO USUI'S ORIGINAL REIKI METHOD
MANA
Mana is the fourteenth symbol of the Advanced Karuna® Reiki Method. It was channeled by Dario Canil in 2001.
Every dualism, every opposition, every separation is merely an illusion that is resolved by the recognition of the Divine Presence "I Am" within the human being. Everything is One.
Mana helps reconcile opposites within oneself, create integration between different aspects of the Self, and perceive the individual (undivided) as a unity, instead of the chaotic mixture of identifications that define the false personality.
The drawing of Mana begins by tracing the triangle counterclockwise starting from the apex and then simultaneously drawing the two lines from top to bottom (using both hands or with intent) to connect them.
ADVAITA, NON-DUALITY – You have spent many years of your life constructing your identity: an idea of yourself that actually makes you perceive yourself as separate from the All. The word "I" is the greatest of illusions. The idea of "I" fuels a dualistic view of life, where everyone identifies themselves as distinct and separate, when in fact each one is life itself manifesting.
The dualistic view only nourishes and develops what is commonly referred to as the "ego." Those who identify with their ego no longer perceive that everything is perfect. Embracing what is—here and now—frees every individual from the mind’s judgment and returns them to the true essence of things. Identification with the "small self" prevents openness to the perfection of the present moment.
In a non-dualistic view, life becomes more impersonal, and there is no longer an "I" doing something or to whom something happens. There is only what is: consciousness manifesting, which is what each person truly is. You simply exist in the living space of your awareness.
Becoming more aware of this allows access to the true Self and leads to a complete experience of unconditional love. You cannot understand it; you can only be it, live it. The non-dual experience goes beyond the psychic experience; in other words, it is not something that can be reached with the mind. In truth, there is nothing to reach, as everything is already within Being. You cannot do anything to reach the Self, as you are already part of it.
«You have always been the Ocean,
even when you saw yourself as a drop..»
(Dario Canil, Tu Sei Magia, Mondadori)
«Create your happy world! Right now, you can choose to live healthily, freely, and happily within a sick, corrupt, unjust society, and you can begin to transform it yourself (who else?) from within, from your creative Center, from the wonderful Consciousness that You Are. You can be an example and inspiration, a candle of light that ignites thousands of other candles, in an escalation of divine potential realized. Dream, plan, and create your happy world with all the love, strength, and wisdom you possess! You have the power!»
(Dario Canil, Il sussurro dell'Infinito, Mondadori)
