HOW TO APPROACH THE REIKI METHOD
IN THE BEST POSSIBLE WAY
First step: find a sober and prepared teacher
Listening, self-awareness, vigilance, common sense and free and simple critical capacity are required.
You can approach Reiki by "feeling".Becoming a channel of Reiki is extremely simple: it is necessary, though to find a "clear"
person that may transmit the harmonization.
Those who are walking on the path of energy awareness know that Reiki is "guarded" from outside influences:
it can act within us and through us effectively and for a long time, whatever the moral integrity or degree of balance achieved by the person who transmits the harmonization
to us, as long as he or she is a Third Level initiate, knows the correct initiation procedures and is energetically aware.
The fact that Reiki is transmitted correctly whatever the balance and intention of the intermediary-Master may be, is not enough to guard us from "contact"
with any disharmony or intent to manipulate.
Since Reiki is a work of energy and not of fantasy, less than honest Reiki "teachers" can find a fertile ground to sink roots in which have very little to do with universal love, and much more to do with exploitation, moral subjugation and dangerous psychological bondage. It’s easy to exploit Reiki in these hideous ways simply because the method actually works!.
Yet, the true Reiki Method is always a way to find yourself, never to lose yourself!

Teachers who are absolutely untrained, superficial, sloppy or, worse still, arrogant gurus filled to the brim with exaltation and fanaticism are, alas, quite common. They have their right to exist and to express themselves as they prefer, but we have the right not to follow them on the path of our evolution!
"Anything is one of a million paths. Therefore you must always keep in mind that a path is only a path; if you feel you should not follow it, you must not stay with it under any conditions. To have such clarity you must lead a disciplined life. Only then will you know that any path is only a path and there is no affront, to oneself or to others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you to do. But your decision to keep on the path or to leave it must be free of fear or ambition. I warn you. Look at every path closely and deliberately. Try it as many times as you think necessary. This question is one that only a very old man asks. Does this path have a heart? All paths are the same: they lead nowhere. They are paths going through the bush, or into the bush. In my own life I could say I have traversed long long paths, but I am not anywhere. Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn't, it is of no use. Both paths lead nowhere; but one has a heart, the other doesn't. One makes for a joyful journey; as long as you follow it, you are one with it. The other will make you curse your life. One makes you strong; the other weakens you." (Nagual don Juan Matus)
It is therefore fundamental to me that all who approach Reiki open their heart at 360° and pay attention to their inmost feelings: only then will they recognize those who aim at tricking them in the many-faced marked of the spirit; only then will they recognize a “master” who really transmits Reiki, who does not only mind his personal power and business, and works with energy with a spirit of humility, loyalty and love.
"Every person, all the events of your life are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you." (Richard Bach)
Such feeling however must not be aimed only towards the outer world. Since Reiki is a powerful means of transformation, it must be clear that everyone should feel within themselves when is the right moment to receive it, and be aware of their real motives in starting off on that path.
Is Reiki for everyone?
ALL CAN RECEIVE REIKI, MA NOT ALL CAN TEACH IT! In the life each discovers to have some talents, some inclinations, some abilities. To favor our potentialities and to manifest them means to walk on a road of health, comfort and self-realization. To deny important parts of us or to force us to do this toward which we are not brought is a dangerous street for us and for the others.
For us... to hold back, to deny and to force the things are certain not factors that favor our wellness and evolution.
For others... to give a professional service for which there is no talent is similarly deleterious. Thinks about the baker that cooks "bad" bread or the engineer that plans unstable constructions.
The world would be a better place if each did with heart and appointment what it is indeed able to do. To each his own work! And there are so so many possibilities that almost certainly each person, listening indeed himself, is able to find his own way. Let's therefore wish us to find a good baker, a good engineer, a good employee, a good hairdresser, a good worker, a good doctor, a good Reiki Master.
The Reiki Master and the energetic presence
The Reiki Master/Teacher, besides knowing well his subject, to be sober and honest, should have pertinent power and presence at the energetic level because in the attunements he works for resonance, or it connects himself with certain very elevated energies... those of Reiki. But if the teacher is energetically a chronically depressed person (which maybe would allow him to make very well many works but not the Reiki Master!!!) with which energy would he be resonant? That that corresponds to his vibration. And the "Reiki" so transmitted would be equal indeed to that transmitted by a present person? The answer is: no!
Why the Free Reiki® School?
Because in the Free Reiki® School you find sobriety, honesty, competence and because the teacher Dario Canil loves his work and does it full time. The daily contact with the energy is important: who would submit for a surgical intervention to the teeths to a physician orthopedic expert that has studied dentistry to the times of the university and no more since that time?
The intent of the Free Reiki® School is to teach the Reiki Method in the possible most faithful way to the original one of dr. Usui. Mikao Usui, also appreciating the acceleration of the self-healing process, considered it as a secondary effect in comparison to the most important work of spiritual nature that the Reiki Method goes to develop in the practitioner. The Free Reiki® School sets the accent on the basilar concepts of the Usui vision: the fluidity, the liberty, the listening, the feeling, the awareness, the presence; these are aspects that comes before whatever form of technique.
The future student of Reiki is called to feel if he perceives resonance toward this type of approach. If it is so, the Free Reiki® School does to his case, otherwise in Italy and in the world there are different alternative approaches, some of which certainly interesting and valid.
