Afterword

Trying to finish the last few lines of this book, I was interrupted by a news alert: the recently negotiated truce in a civil war in Europe had just been broken. Hope had turned to tragedy, with dead, injured, bereaved and homeless on both sides. When I finally switched back to what I was doing, my eyes fell on the words: ‘Just for today, do not be angry.’ Reiki has its ways of bringing me back.

What could I do? I sent Reiki. And wondered what would have happened if people on both sides of the conflict had learned it. Can you kill with healing hands? Can you harm someone when you are aware that we are all connected?

Once we feel the light within, it is impossible not to realize that the very same light shines in the other person. In every other person.

I’m convinced that Reiki can change the world.

Let’s start.
