Book Review: Informative, Well Researched and Useful
Summary: 4 Stars

Mr. Penczak has put much of his own research in one handy book, including a basic history, hand positions, new symbols, different Reiki methods and traditions, Reiki in Ritual and spellwork and much, much more.

His use of Reiki, and his experiences in incorporating techniques such as crystals into Reiki, using a Reiki Protection Shield, working distance healing, or his personal experiences with other Traditions serves as a open door for the reader to explore Reiki on a whole new level. Mr. Penczak includes all the caveats, and all the potential for using Reiki. He discusses the traditional stories and explanations that have been handed down and includes his own research and his own theories and findings. The book is not just for those on a magical path, but for those who are curious about Reiki and travel any spiritual path.

I particularly enjoyed reading someone else's experiences in working with some of the new symbols that have come to light over the past few years. Some of his experiences validate my own working with these symbols. I was especially pleased that he also noted his experiences with Shamballa Reiki as I have had some very similar experiences. It was interesting to find commonalities in personal experiences. It is almost a validation of personal experience and allows the practitioner to feel they are advancing and growing in the field.

I like his inclusion of 'New Age Add-ons', such as 'Reiki Spirits'. His book serves as an update on what else is going on in the Reiki field, what new facets are being included, what other teachers and students are learning, and covers ground that otherwise you would need to research yourself.

Yet Mr. Penczak maintains the traditional beliefs of Reiki: the universal energy, the higher good, obtaining permissions before applying Reiki. These are not traditions, these are truths. The basics of Reiki can not be changed, it is a universal energy, and when used for the higher good, and with permissions, is a very useful companion therapy.

Must reading in this book, I feel, is his section on 'The Future of Reiki'. Discussion on ethics, fallacies, Reiki and the law, and personal growth should discussed and explored.

Mr. Penczak offers us a wonderful book filled with useful information, good research, and personal insights and experiences into Reiki. It is in easy to understand language, is not path specific, and the book is easy to reference. An excellent beginners handbook, a good overview for the curious and will also attract the attention of masters in the inclusion of symbols and Traditions as well as current updates to the field. boudica
