| 内容記述 | Reiki is regarded as the Universal Life-Force Energy that is present in all living and non-living things. The Chinese call it ch'i; the Japanese call it ki; and Hindus call it prana. It is a part of the divinesource energy that purportedly assists in healing and gives those who receive it a sense of equilibrium and well-being. The purpose of this study is to determine what religious influence, if any, is present in a Reiki practitioner’s healing work; and what direct link, if any, is there between Reiki as an alternative healing therapy and the practitioner’s spirituality or belief system. Reiki is not a religion, strictly speaking, as it has no real creed, code of ethics, or dogma; but, it is spiritually-based because its adherents and practitioners often use prayerful intentions before beginning a treatment and all possess a belief in a higher power which they call upon to access and use the Reiki energy source. So, at the very least, however, it could be categorized as a form of “spirituality” in that the Reiki energy is believed to be a part of a higher power or realm, coming from a divine-source which some people refer to as God; the Creator; the Almighty; a Supreme Being; Great Spirit; or Infinite Intelligence. Hence, the study endeavored to learn the religious and/or spiritual backgrounds of the participants, their attitudes toward religion and spiritual-based beliefs, and what role these play in their Reiki healing work with regards to the actual Reiki treatment when given to a client. A further intention of this study was also to qualify the process and ritual involved in preparing and executing a Reiki treatment. |
