FOURTH REIKI SYMBOL - DAI KO MYO
DAI KO MYO - THE POWER OF LIGHT AND SILENCE
Dai Ko Myo signifies light, clarity, intent, understanding, presence, and silence. It is the symbol used in attunements to harmonize human beings with Reiki energy. Dai Ko Myo opens, illuminates, and protects. It is Light that nourishes and fills, that guides and brings peace. Dai Ko Myo means "great shining light," "great luminous radiance," or "great enlightenment," referring to the pulsating heart of Reiki.
Dai Ko Myo represents the most authentic, alive, and present aspect of the entire Reiki journey. Many Reiki Masters teach that Dai Ko Myo is used only in attunements and that it doesn't provide any further growth for the Reiki practitioner. However, thinking this way seems highly limiting: any Reiki practitioner who has practiced the Reiki Method with sincerity and enthusiasm can discover new and extraordinary potentials in Dai Ko Myo.
The light of Dai Ko Myo can be used to clarify one's path, to reconnect with oneself, to penetrate deeply into the soul, and to guide the exploration toward the essence of Being. Dai Ko Myo is also used to treat oneself and others with deep awareness, in a dynamic balance of relaxation and concentration, with a silent and invigorating presence.
Dai Ko Myo is not a symbol to be "activated" through use or the "doing" of the Second Level. Rather, Dai Ko Myo is a state of being, and the task of the Reiki practitioner is to develop resonance with this luminous and silent vibration: to bring one's own vibration closer to that of the "Great Shining Light." Dai Ko Myo expresses itself through a higher, more aware non-action, a state of surrender combined with sharp presence: Dai Ko Myo is not something you do, Dai Ko Myo is something you become!
