My Reiki Journey
Namaste! I am Sujata Ghosh. I am grateful to the Universe for giving
me the opportunity to share my Reiki journey on this Reiki blog. I am a
Reiki Master based in Mumbai. Today I would like to share with you my
spiritual journey in Reiki and my story of how I became a Reiki Master
in Mumbai.
My association with Reiki started when I was in
Nagpur doing my B. Tech in Electronics and staying in a hostel. I came
to know about Reiki from a friend from Ranchi. She told me the benefits
of Reiki and how it teaches a person to love and accept oneself.
I
am thankful to her as if she would not have shared, I would not have
begun this journey probably. This is the reason I share about Reiki with
everyone I come across.
After completing my graduation from
Nagpur college, when I was 21 years old, I came home in summer and
luckily there was a Reiki workshop in the training center at my father’s
office in NTPC Korba.
My Reiki Level 1 Course and benefits I got
I
learnt the first degree from Mrs Amita Singh from Jamshedpur. My
parents also learned the Reiki first degree course along with me. I
practiced Reiki on myself for the first 21 days and felt satisfied and
relaxed.
I continued by Reiki practice and could feel a tingling
sensation while giving Reiki to myself. Due to my Reiki practice I got
many things that I wanted in life.
- I successfully completing my management course from XISS Ranchi
- I got a corporate job in Bangalore in 2001.
- Reiki helped me in changing myself as a person.
- I
was very impulsive, impatient and I used to lose my temper very often.
These things started reducing significantly with my daily Reiki
practice.
- I used to be anxious about my career. Reiki helped me in reducing anxiety to a large extent.
- After a year, I got married at the age of 23 and moved to London.
I
was blessed with a daughter Shruti, within three years of marriage and
life was quite good. We moved back to India, Kolkata by 2007. I used to
keep a diary of gratitude and list all the things which I was thankful
for. I wanted to do the second level of Reiki but due to life events I
could not proceed further.
I kept on writing a wish list and
the area where I needed to work on myself. That helped a lot in coping
in a new environment of Kolkata.
I was blessed with my son,
Shrinjit, and then slowly things again came back to a new normal. And
again we had to moved to Mumbai as my husband’s career progressed. My
husband, Sudipta, was working with PwC in Data
and analytics.
Finally I did my Reiki Level 2
When
I came to the commerce capital of India, I was disturbed with the
frantic pace of the people in Mumbai. They were so unconscious of their
behavior. During this time I did my second degree from Reiki Grandmaster
Mrs. Anjani a senior teacher at Nalanda Reiki Center. It was very very
soothing for me to be back in touch with Reiki.
After learning the
second degree I started sending Reiki to my parents who were in Kolkata.
My mother was diagnosed with cancer and she had to go for chemotherapy.
I continued sending her a lot of Reiki and she started to regain her
strength both physically and mentally in an year.
Reiki second
degree course helped me in contributing to my mother even though she was
away from me. I am so thankful for this I cant explain.
Other accomplishments from Reiki 2
I continued to practice Reiki Second degree techniques for various things.
- I started becoming calmer and started accepting myself as well as the people of Mumbai.
- I was getting much peaceful sleep every night.
- Reiki second degree helped me to changed my perspective of life
- I started to accept my past failures in Career as I could not grow much in the Corporate world
- I started forgiving those who were not nice to me.
- I
made a list of people who were in my thoughts. I started sending Reiki,
asking for forgiveness if I had hurt them unknowingly or forgiving them
if they had done or said anything wrong.
- I started sending Reiki to my daughter and improved a lot in her academics.
- I wrote all my worries and desires on a piece of paper and gave Reiki to the paper. Most of my desires have come true.
- We love to travel a lot and so we traveled to a lot of beautiful places with family.
I
reminded myself that Reiki is not just for fulfilling the wishes. Reiki
is mainly for improving oneself for evolution of our soul.
I
started to tell a few of my friends about the benefits of Reiki and how
it is helping me to improve myself and my surroundings. I could let go
of anxiety for small stuff. My anger had evaporated. I started to thank
even the people who were not good to me, for making me realize how much
work has to be done on myself.
With the blessing of Reiki we
moved to our own house in Andheri, Mumbai. It is a dream come true for
many people to have their own house in Mumbai. My children were both
enjoying their school here. I was very grateful for the good things I
had attracted in my life and was constantly focused on keeping myself
happy.
My Reiki Level 3 Course experience
I was
eager to learn the third degree as I wanted to get the maximum benefits
from Reiki. I wanted to feel connected with the universe too. Learning
the third degree of Reiki was quite satisfying for me. I could feel
slight sensation on my head, while I was getting attuned by my Reiki
Grandmaster Mrs. Anjani from Nalanda Reiki Center.
I started
practicing much more than before. After Reiki third degree course I
started attracting more good things in my life. I joined a yoga class
here and started attending full moon mediation sessions. My children
made a lot of friends here and they were much happier in this new house.
I
started expressing gratitude to all my family members, the nature, the
Sun, the Moon, the stars and all the living creatures on this planet. I
started to give Reiki to my food, clothes, house, plants and especially
water. I came to know about water memory and started paying attention to
the most vital of the five elements with which we all are made up of.
I
started reading and watching a lot of spiritual stuff to improve my
knowledge. I started keeping a journal for noting down my wishes and
handed it over to the universe to help me in achieving them or guide me
for the best thing to do.
I was able to manage my emotional ups
and downs better. My desire of owning a house here came true. My
children were going to school by bus that became a blessing as they not
only started to enjoy that but also it taught them to be independent and
responsible. Overall it helped me in stabilizing my mind to a large
extent.
Becoming a Reiki Master and experience of teaching
It
attracted some positive people around me and made me realize the
importance of self-realization. I had a feeling that I want to be a
Reiki Master and spread Reiki awareness to as many people as possible. I
was very motivated for the Reiki Master / Teacher level (3B).
I
had a informal discussion with my Teacher and after few days I did my
Master Degree in Reiki from Reiki Grandmaster Sachin Bangera, the
founder of Nalanda Reiki Center. The experience was unique during Master
degree attunement. I could feel the sensation behind my back and on top
of my head. It was very relaxing.
Once I became a certified Usui
Reiki Master I started to teach Reiki to my friends who came to know
from word of mouth that I teach Reiki. It was very satisfying to pass on
the technique and channelizing them to Reiki Energy. I have been
working on my self-improvement as well as those surrounding me.
I
have also taught Reiki to students. After teaching Reiki to a few
college students I felt very satisfied. I was myself feeling very calm
and in tune with the universe while giving attunement.
My Ongoing Spiritual Journey Ahead
I
am working on myself on how to deal with various people without getting
affected and also to minimize social comparisons, especially on social
media on our lives. I committed for my daughter’s bright future and I am
constantly focusing on only the good things in life.
I am
thankful to the materialistic place like Mumbai for making me more and
more inclined towards Reiki. The negativity of the place pushed me to go
deeper within me and it has been a wonderful journey since then.
I
regularly do meditation now and watch lots of spiritual videos by
Sadhguru and Sister Shivani. I give Reiki to my food, while cooking and
eating and serving, to water, while drinking or giving others or storing
and things that I touch and sit upon.
Whenever things are not
going right or there is disturbance in the atmosphere, I give Reiki to
all the corners of my home and ceiling too. I regularly read books on
self improvement like parenting, inner engineering, power of
subconscious mind, etc.
I maintain a journal of happy memories
and savoir the reminiscence of travel. I play some relaxing music while
cooking. I try to focus on myself rather than trying to change the
surroundings or the people around me.
I am working towards being
calm and stable in all situations. I have realized that this whole
experience of life is slowly morphing me into a more conscious being.
I am now residing in Oberoi Splendor complex in Andheri East, Mumbai.
