About the Book

Review

“This is an inspiring, fact-based and fascinating history of Real Reiki(r).
If you are curious about “Reiki” and don’t know where to start, I highly recommend this book.
It is a clear guide on your journey of exploration into the authentic, transcendental energy science trademarked as Real Reiki(r), as differentiated from the myriad of other forms offered as “Reiki.”
I learned so much about Hawayo Takata’s background, and her courage in protecting the authentic energy science.
Two of the chapters, “Keep the Reiki Pure” and “Masters and Lineage” are especially moving to me, as I gained greater insight into the depth of how vital it is to keep this transcendental energy science intact and unpolluted.
I have a deeper appreciation of the Integrity and Trust it took for Mrs. Takata to carefully choose her successor, Dr. Barbara Ray.
One of the photos included in the book shows a beaming Mrs. Takata standing next to Dr. Ray. Their smiles and Joy are contagious!
I also appreciate the depth of research that the author, Shoshana Shay has put into this illuminating, historical work.
This book has a treasured place on my bookshelf.
