«Why was Dr. Usui's tomb inscription unjustly hidden from the West? I needed to find out as soon as possible. On this monument, erected by the organization founded by Usui himself—the Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai—and maintained by them to this day, the story of Dr. Usui's life is engraved—how and where he discovered Reiki—immortalized for future generations in the words of Usui's successor, Ushida. The tomb is accessible to everyone, and the monument was erected there for the public. If one wanted to keep something secret, one certainly wouldn’t build a monument in a public place. And it was right here, at the tomb of the founder of Reiki, that my journey toward the true history of Reiki began. I asked myself: why wasn't the inscription on Usui's tomb written by Hayashi, who is said to have been his successor?» (Frank Arjava Petter)
