The Five Principles of Reiki:
- Just for today I will live
the Attitude of Gratitude
Always feel
thankful for what we have, as well as for what we know, will be constantly be
provided. Our normal state is that of self sufficiency or abundance. By living
in gratitude, one can shift from the vicious circle of lack, to the virtuous
circle of abundance.
- Just for today I will not
worry
Worry results
from feelings of separateness from the universal wholeness. Try not to
interfere with the universal timing of life. Live each day to the best of your
ability and the rest will be taken care of.
- Just for today I will not
anger
Anger is
a result of feeling out of control. When you get angry, become aware of your
reactions and also feel thankful for having got an opportunity to look at your
weakness. Do not feel quality for experiencing anger. Be in the attitude of
gratitude and just for today, do not anger.
- Just for today I will do
my work honestly
To be
honest with oneself is to face truth in all things. Truth brings clarity. Honesty
with your self will project honesty on to others.
- Just for today I will show
love and respect for every living thing.
We are
all of one source and are interdependent. To show love and respect to all
others is to love and respect ourselves and our mother earth.
