Dicsourses on the Principles - Principle Five

Just for today I will be kind to all beings. I vow to practice that all beings may find peace, healing and liberation from suffering.

This is the pinnacle of Reiki practice. We allow ourselves to be conscious vessels and conduits of universal light and love in order to transform and liberate all beings. We are one with all things. In Buddhism this is called interdependent co-arising. Christian holy texts say that in God we live and move and have our being. There is no distinction between you and I. All is all.

When you engage in compassionate meditation by sending out Reiki, you are effecting the liberation of all beings. When, through practice, you fully realize your union with all beings, you will no longer desire to harm. Feelings of enmity will cease. Infinite light and love will pervade your practice and flow into the awareness of all beings. Practice that all beings may find liberation. Practice. Practice. Practice.

Light and Love to the earth and all her beings; to all spirits light and dark, above and below; to all beings of the ten directions and all beings of the seven worlds. May we all realize peace, healing and liberation.
