A Modern Reiki Method for Healing

by Hiroshi Doi

Usui Reiki Ryoho is a Japanese technique for creating happiness, relaxation and healing. The author, Hiroshi Doi, is a Japanese Reiki Master who is a member of the Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai, the original association started by the founder of Usui Reiki, Usui Sensei. The first four presidents of the Gakkai after Usui Sensei were trained by him and the last of the four was president through 1975, making the training and information taught to Gakkai members and contained in their archives the most authentic available today. Since the Gakkai is a closed association in which it is difficult even for Japanese Reiki students to become members, we are fortunate that this author has permission to pass this sacred information on to the public.Iyashi Gendai Reiki-ho was the first book written by a Japanese Reiki Master that was translated and published in English. However, it had been out of print for many years. The current publisher, who is also a Reiki Master, worked closely with the author, updating the text to include many important facts from the Gakkai archives that were not in the first edition and also carefully refining the translation so that the esoteric concepts would be more comprehensible to the Western mind.This is an important book that preserves the original concepts and methods taught by Usui Sensei while at the same time offering a practical system of Reiki for modern times.

This book is a must for anyone studying Reiki at any level; as well as someone who would like to learn what Reiki is about. It has greately expanded the skills and knowledge that I have already learned. I love this book and keep it on my dresser as companion to all of current training.

it is a very helpful book if you wanna know more about Reiki and its history, but in the middle, it got boring... to me :3 but still, it's a nice book !

Not what the author made it out to be. Repetitive and wishy-washy. Instead of being a new approach which blends East and West, it is a hideous mess of New Age mumbo jumbo. Very disappointed.

Thank you Doi sensei.

Wiencowski sensei at the conclusion of class shared a handout of Doi's. This is unusual for her to go outside the Takata-Furmoto lineage. It almost seemed like a nudge to read more of Doi's.

I appreciated Doi's translation of Usui's 5 precepts.

I will be reading this book a third time when upon recieving reju for ReiKi mastery, especially chapters 6, 7 and the appendix.
