Connecting to Spiritual energy

Developing a connection to spiritual energy

A monumental name connected to modern use of spiritual energy is Mikao Usui, believed to be the founder with the ability to transfer what he termed Reiki energy. My personal appreciation for Usui is not for what he could do, but the life he led in this world. He freely offered and used the energy in a poverty-stricken Japan of his time. Traveling to where he felt needed, and using the energy in healing/teaching – yet always felt he was both the student and the teacher. In the time since, the work Mikao Usui did freely became adapted in the western world as being given in monetary exchange from one to another. Mikao Usui, transferred the energy to those who chose to learn from him, for self-healing and further self-growth. In modern times, the transference of energy in the western world has become a venue based in profit for the exchange. Unneeded in the transfer, though sadly as a world which values monetary exchange over freely giving – with the monetary exchange the energy is seen as more valid in purchase form. What would Mikao Usui think of modern times? From his own core values, he would probably just remind the world the walk is not external, for any price.


In the parable of the Pentecost, a Great Spirit fire encompassed the crowd. It was said Simon Magnus watched from the side – unable to receive the fire and then requested to give payment for what was received and as the story goes, was shunned in his life for the attempt. So what is this energy Usui and received at the Pentecost derived from? And why? Spirit Fire itself has many names brought from many cultures. Kundilini being just one of the names attached. Many have sought to force this energy to be realized within them and provoked, with the affects of opening the channels being felt in both positive and negative results, all are one energy – opening what is already available into being consciously realized. Being received without an on/off switch to access as only the bliss of life. One energy with only the receiver's choice of acknowledging or attempting to resist, though the energy can never truly be resisted once the channel has opened. Energy, which is present in your highest of highs and lowest of lows without differentiation to the emotional body. Since it does not originate from a place of emotion, it does not have a reaction to the emotion of mortality. The flow remains steady with resistance only creating an interruption or building of human emotion reacting from either the fear or bliss. Reiki energy does not have the energy force of the Spirit Fire, which is a term I choose to use for the energy. Reiki is more so a stream compared to an ocean.


On January 14, 2002, I felt the fire erupt without being provoked and yet spontaneous in nature. If you could imagine standing in a fire, with you being the burn rather than from an external force. Mortally feeling sure this was death waiting, yet hearing a voice saying, "you are going to be alright." The following five hours, I have no memory of – the days to follow felt like everything inside of myself had been liquidated physically. I would not say that time was a pretty memory, or a feeling of bliss as many might interrupt such as being. The physical body and emotional body still had to process the event as being the mortal body. I am grateful I had my own sense of communication prior to this event and the ability to be guided outside of fear and into understanding. If, I had felt myself as being separated or unsure of guidance, that time could have felt like hell on earth, and awakened myself to the true length of the road I was about to travel.


I chose to use the energy for healing and the memory that we are always the student and the teacher, the flow of energy never ceases to remind you of this. Knowing I am only a master of my own choices and not a master of any choice of another. I am the teacher when the teacher is requested and the student always in enhancing the teaching. Reading about Mikao Usui, I feel the fire taught him the same lessons, how his lessons became adapted afterwards, he understood was needed for the flow to continue to be expressed. Guidance is always with you and yet, your guidance is not the guidance of another, only respect of the energy as it chooses to process through many. Learning life is the never-ending story, which continually cycles from one moment to another in perception and experience. A shared living of souls rippling through each other with synchronicity expressed in thought and deed individually and yet as one. With time only being, an unseen perception adapted to the movement of experiencing mortality.


A time to dare to dream larger than who we are, or who we perceive as being capable of being. A gift of living without restriction of will or opportunity unless we set the limits of our being. Life lessons are never failed, only understood in finding resolution. My dream is to bring the Spiritual Windows into a physical gathering space, large enough to teach, work, heal and learn with others, whether human/plant or animal. My dream has now found the physical place of being I have been looking for possibly all my life, with the trust and faith this place will evolve into the land of the Windows not only for myself, but all who choose to visit. Destiny? Of my making and free will. The ability to do so? This will come from the same flow of energy which has guided myself this far. This energy either is the cake and the frosting, not just a piece in separation to be a part or removed from the whole.


Energy is not only something you know is working, it is something you feel and can acknowledge the work being done. Freely transferring without interruption and without separation in monetary deliverance.
