Exercise with the Dai Ko Myo Mantra
Meditative practice with the sound of the Dai Ko Myo symbol from the Third Reiki Level
«Every being possesses Universal Life Energy: it is the gift given to us by creation. Through Reiki harmonization, access to this source of life is greatly opened, allowing individuals to more fully walk the "Path of the Heart" with awareness, the path of gradual realization of the perfection of the whole.»
(Dario Canil, L'Anima del Reiki)
MEDITATIVE EXERCISE WITH THE DAI KO MYO SOUND (MANTRA)
Mantra and Meditative Practice with the Sound of Dai Ko Myo. Mantra: The term 'Mantra' originates from Sanskrit and, in its original sense, means the 'vehicle or instrument of thought,' essentially a 'sacred expression.' It is derived from the Sanskrit verb man, meaning 'to think,' combined with the suffix -tra, which corresponds to the Sanskrit adjective kṛt ('that which does,' 'that which acts'). A mantra essentially carries the meaning and function of a 'creative invocation.'
Meditative Practice with the Sound of Dai Ko Myo
«Preparation: Wash your hands and remove any watches, rings, bracelets, or anything else that might cause distraction. Sit in an upright position (either on a chair or on the floor), but ensure that you are comfortable so that you are not distracted by your own body. Focus on your heart.
Expressing Intent: Out loud or in your mind, express the intent to receive the power of Reiki light through Dai Ko Myo. Cultivate within yourself a state of calm, relaxation, humility, trust, and readiness. Close your eyes.
Sound Practice: On each exhale, chant the sound Dai Ko Myo out loud, repeating it as your breath allows. You may modulate the sound like a melody if you wish. As you inhale, visualize the energy of Dai Ko Myo entering through your 7th chakra (crown) and descending to your tanden (2nd chakra). This creates an energy cycle through your breath. Dai Ko Myo is within you and around you. Continue this for 2-10 minutes.
Internal Sound Practice: Now, internally generate the same sound of Dai Ko Myo without making a physical sound, on each exhale. As you inhale, visualize the energy of Dai Ko Myo entering through your 7th chakra (crown) and descending to your 2nd chakra. Dai Ko Myo is within you and around you. Continue this for 2-10 minutes.
Silence and Feeling the Energy: Listen to the energy of Dai Ko Myo within you, in the silence of calm. Dai Ko Myo manifests in your heart. Create an emptiness within, do nothing, think nothing, let everything flow through the attentive listening of your heart.
Continue this for 2-10 minutes.
Total Duration: 6-30 minutes.
