Mission and Goals
The NYC Reiki Center is a traditional Reiki practice and school in which Brian Brunius, through his master Elaine Abrams, continues the practice and teaching of Reiki in his lineage through John Harvey Gray, Hawayo Takata, Chujiro Hayashi, and Mikao Usui.
Following are the goals of the NYC Reiki Center:
1. Global Community
Help students and practitioners find their place in the global Reiki community. We each have special gifts cogent to our missions in the world. Developing those gifts and using them in effective ways brings each us closer to realizing our full potential. Connecting with a Reiki community and sharing in the joyous process of growth, supports us on a deep core level.
2. Personal Empowerment
Receiving the Reiki attunements changes us by enlarging the pathways that allow the flow of energy into and around the body. By increasing the so-called “light potential” of each person through Reiki attunements, we not only make it possible for them to share Reiki with others, but we enrich them with a flow of energy that will help them overcome their greatest obstacles and fully inhabit their lives and missions
3. Increase Consciousness
All beings are essentially One. By expanding our consciousness, we help all sentient beings. By helping another to expand her consciousness, we empower ourselves and all other beings. Through obstacles and anxieties, we will use the safety and community of the NYC Reiki Center to increase the consciousness of its members, and all the world.
4. Service to Humanity
The spiritual teacher Sathya Sai Baba often exhorts us, “Love all, Serve all.” This instruction helps us keep our lives and daily activities focused on the singular thought: “What do I have to give to each person or situation I encounter?” At NYC Reiki Center, thinking of others first takes us out of our selfish, self-centered ego and puts Reiki in charge of our lives and daily activities. We offer ourselves each day in the service of Reiki, and ask that we may be shown where to go, whom to talk to, and what to say and do to make a difference in the world.
