Reiki Symbols
Does anyone have the authentic symbols of reiki?
Mikao Usui, a Japanese Tendai Buddhist & founder of Usui Reiki Ryoho, originally introduced symbols to Reiki only for those students who could not access and utilize Reiki through practice and dedication alone. He introduced 4 such symbols: DKM, HSZSN, CKR, & SHK.
Like any symbol, they are merely training wheels. As you progress through Reiki, you may actually come to find that using the Reiki symbols are no longer necessary.
The symbols themselves are usually held sacred by Reiki practitioners. With that said, many practitioners will not openly divulge them to you - it wouldn't do much good anyway, if you knew them or not - if you havent been trained in their use. It would be like someone giving you an airplane without you knowing how to fly it. Seek training in Reiki first. Learn how to access and utilize Reiki before digging deeper. Learn to walk before you run.
I would recommend Frank Petters books if you'd like more info. For the most part it is historically accurate (coming from someone who knows Japanese history as well as Japanese culture and Theology). I would also recommend The Reiki Sourcebook - another fairly accurate book on Reiki, not without its flaws.
I would suggest not getting books by Diane Stein or Maureen Kelly. Both of these authors present grossly misleading information presented as fact. If you know your history about Japan and Reiki, you'd know this to be the case (IMHO, these are typical new age versions of Reiki, presenting a lot of not so historically accurate info).
Hope this helps.
