Text Box: To the uninitiated, Reiki is a Japanese word for ‘energy work’, and describes a holistic healing modality in which the practitioner learns how to channel universal energy. By becoming attuned and learning how to vibrate in a certain mode, the healer realizes the innate ability to direct energy. Using intention and concentration, the Reiki practitioner enters a meditative state, in which the energy in the body becomes balanced, improving abilities as a conduit. While many can benefit from the receipt of Reiki, the practitioner also benefits simply by being in healing mode. The practice of drumming has been with mankind for millennia, and is still a mainstay of many tribal cultures. Drumming allows an individual to relax and release, finding a comfortable rhythm and influencing personal vibration. When groups drum together, known as drum circle, a harmonious beat is found that all can join. The group energy is enhanced as harmony is achieved, and each participant grows from the experience. The key element of drumming is the sound, which carries the rhythm. Sound is energy. Sound travels in pulses and ripples, carrying vibration. Reiki is also energy. Reiki energy can be added to the sound waves, thus being both carried and amplified. A drum is an effective sound maker, and perfect for carrying Reiki energy. If the intention is set to send pulses of healing energy along with the waves of sound, then it shall be so. A rhythm played repetitively and harmoniously can amplify sound beyond its original volume, creating a hum that raises the level of vibration. In the same way a Reiki wave can amplify, particularly when created in resonance with other Reiki drummers. When a group of Reiki practitioners form a drum circle with the intention of pulsing healing energy, a vortex is created. The healing energy benefits both the circle and the planet, as the positive energy of Reiki is channeled into the earth. © Copyright Glenn Stewart Coles, 2004 First Published November 28, 2004
