There, he continued his confucian-based studies of poetry and rhetoric in preparation for a court career. However, at some time during this period, he met a monk who introduced him to the esoteric and the These new teachings must have gone directly to his heart. The impact of what he read seems to have affected him immediately, and within a year of arriving at the college he had begun to return on a regular and frequent basis to the forests and mountains of Shikoku in order to devote himself to rigorous and ascetic meditative practices.

Extractions: Reiki Will Never Be The Same Again by Taggart King I f you open any newspaper or magazine that has an "alternative health" section, you will find an advertisement for a Reiki practitioner or Master. Reiki healing is a technique that has been embraced by the west since it was brought to America from Japan by a lady called Hawayo Takata, and you can find Reiki healers all over the planet. However, it is only in the last couple of years that Western practitioners have had the opportunity to learn about Reiki's true origins and its original techniques. The way that Reiki has been presented and taught in the West is very different from what Reiki was supposed to have been. The commonly taught history of Reiki says that it was developed by Dr Mikao Usui, a Christian theologian, who was prompted to go on a great quest to discover a healing technique, after being questioned by his students about the way that Jesus healed. The story goes that Usui travelled the world, studying theology in Japan and America, and that Reiki came into being after a moment of enlightenment on Mount Kurama, where Usui saw symbols in bubbles of light before him, and came down the mountain with the Reiki system. Almost all books on Reiki will present this story.

As the center of Japanese culture for more than a thounsand years, it spans the development of Japanese wooden architecture, particularly religious architecture, and the art of Japanese gardens, which has influenced garden landscaping the world over. This temple was originally built in 794 by Emperor Kanmu as protection for the city. In 823, Emperor Saga offered the temple to Priest Kukai. It became the headquarters of Shingon Buddhism. In spite of repeated fires, the unusual Hakkyakumon Gate (eight-legged gate) and the Kita Daimon Gate have stood since the Kamakura period (1192-1333). The Kondo Hall, a National Treasure, was rebuilt by Hideyoshi Toyotomi, and houses the impressive Yakushi Sanzon statues (statue of three Yakushi), Important Cultural Properties. In the Kondo Hall, another Important Cultural Property, there are 21 statues of the Buddha, 15 of which are designated National Treasures. The famous five-storied pagoda, also a National Treasure, was built by Iemitsu Tokugawa, third Edo shogun, and is the tallest in Japan. It is said to represent both Toji temple and the whole city of Kyoto. There is a flea market here on the 21st of each month, which is visited by crowds of Japanese and tourists.

http://www.usui-do.org/faq.html

Extractions: Is there a connection between Usui's system and Kurama? Usui -Do is a meditative, spiritual system. Its purpose is to maintain unity of the self (body, mind and spirit) through harmony and balance. This is performed in an unconditional and nonjudgmental manner. A set of "affirmations" form the basis of the entire system. This is what the affirmations look like in Japanese exactly as Usui himself arranged them! Usui -Do is a close reconstruction of Usui's system as presented by Yuji Onuki, a student of Toshihiro Eguchi who gave training to Dao Shen-Lissa, Tan-Lin (George) Mullen and Dave King in Morocco in 1971. Additional information was provided by several surviving students of Usui including a Buddhist nun who was born in the 29th year of Meiji (1897) and who had trained with and assisted Usui-sensei from 1920 until 1926. The nun remembers Usui's departure for Fukuyama in 1926 and confirmed that Usui had received Tendai Buddhist training at an early age and remained Tendai all his life. In 1995 Shen-Lissa and Dave further studied with Tatsumi, a student of Hayashi from 1927 to 1931. Tatsumi owned notes copied from those of Hayashi some of which were created by Usui himself. Here is a brief history: Mikao Usui was born on August 15, 1865 in the village of Taniai

Links According to the oral tradition as known in the western world, MIKAO USUI was a Christian Monk, born in Japan, in the second half of the XIX century. After years of hard researches and intense mystic experiences, he discovered the secret of the healing, calling it REIKI The inscription on his memorial, the recovery of his personal notebook helped to make a clear image of the life and work of Usui Sensei . We must also add that the suspicion that his followers nourished against the western nations were, little by little, got over. We now know that MIKAO USUI Tendai Buddhism and came from a legacy of Samurai (Hatamoto). At the age of 12 he started to devote himself to the martial arts, reaching a high degree. He was a very diligent and gifted pupil. He travelled a lot, both for his studies and his work, but he was not so much lucky in the business field so fell into disfavour. Anyhow he soon recovered and got on with his research of growth. When he was 30 Usui Sensei married Sadako Suzuki who gave two sons to him: a male called Fuji (born in 1908) and a female, Toshiko (born in 1913). In March 1922, as a result of a spiritual Journey which led him, at the end, to fast and meditate during 21 days, Usui came into contact with Reiki and understood how to use it as an instrument of personal growth, spiritual evolution and self-healing.

Reiki was developed by a man called Mikao Usui. Usui grew up at a time when Japanese society and culture was going through a period of rapid change. It was not until the 1850s that Japan opened itself up to the Western world; for two centuries starting in 1641, all Europeans except the Dutch had been expelled from Japan. Those Chinese and Dutch that remained were confined in special trading centres in Nagasaki, and no Japanese were allowed to leave the country. Christianity was declared illegal and all Japanese were forced to register at Shinto temples. Those Japanese who refused to renounce Christianity were executed, and so were a few Christian missionaries who refused to leave the country. This ban on Christianity was not lifted until 1873. It was the United States that finally forced Japan to open its borders, and open its economy, to the outside world, and this event led to a great flood of new ideas and esoteric systems coming into Japan from all over the world. Not only that, but Japan underwent a period of rapid industrialisation, transforming itself from a feudal society into an industrialised nation - able to compete with the West on an equal footing - within a period of only 30-40 years. Such a period of rapid change created a real climate of 'wanting to keep hold of traditional culture'. Japan was looking for a spiritual direction and people wanted to rekindle and maintain ancient traditions, while embracing the new. This is what Usui did when he developed Reiki. In the time when Usui was growing up, Japan was a melting pot of new ideas, with many new spiritual systems and healing techniques being developed. Reiki was one of these systems.
