A Blessing from the Masters

When I read a book about Reiki (one of traditional healing method - use the energy transfer to heal) that was telling us about the life of a famous Reiki Master, Mikao Usui, I came across with the blessing - the prayer that might be useful.

The title was a Blessing from the Masters. It was used in the initiation process to the new Reiki practitioners. The blessing consists of hope, courage and motivation, ultimately, to control ourselves.

The blessing was:

May you have

Enough happiness to keep you sweet,

Enough trails to keep you strong,

Enough sorrow to keep you human,

Enough hope to keep you happy,

Enough failure to keep you humble,

Enough success to keep you eager,

Enough friends to give you comfort,

Enough wealth to meet your needs,

Enough enthusiasm to look forward,

Enough faith to banish depression,

Enough determination to make each day better than yesterday.

I had admired the deeply meaning of the blessing itself. It is universally a basic need of becoming human being, to master their own thinking, their own body, their own spirit, their own emotion to achieve the happiness in the present time and beyond.

I had admired the humble and the generous of the masters to their students. They wish the very best for their students.

Warm regards. Bugi.
