The Meaning of Karuna

Karuna is a Sanskrit word that could be translated as "compassionate action." When individuals experience enlightenment, they report that all beings are known as one. Therefore, it is natural to extend compassionate action or Karuna to everyone without distinction because we are all one. As we help others and aid them in their healing process, all beings benefit. Because of the oneness of all beings, it is understood that Karuna is not only extended to others out of love but also because it is an entirely logical thing to do. In the same way that you would want to heal your own wounds, you would also want the wounds of others to heal. It is also stated in the Buddhist literature that Karuna must be accompanied by prajna or wisdom in order to have the right effect. Karuna is the motivating quality of all enlightened beings who are working to end suffering on Earth. They continually send an unlimited amount of healing energy and guidance to us, but not all are receptive to it. As you develop Karuna in yourself, not only are you helping others, but you also become more receptive to the Karuna that is being sent by all enlightened beings. Thus your healing is quickened as well. Karuna Reiki® opens you to work more closely with all enlightened beings. This includes those enlightened ones who are physically present as well as those in spirit. 

The Karuna Reiki® Class

This class is for anyone who has had Reiki Master training. It is complete with four master symbols and eight treatment symbols. 

A brief description of the four Karuna® I symbols is given here: The first symbol prepares the client for deep healing and is used with past life issues. It helps release karma and deeply seated issues on the cellular level. The second symbol heals deeply and can be used to break up the negative patterns we unconsciously use to insulate ourselves from the truth, thus shattering delusion and denial. It heals the shadow self. The third symbol fills the person with love and restores balance. The fourth symbol completes the treatment by bringing the client back into the body and grounding. The Karuna II symbols are of a higher vibration and more powerful. They help connect directly with the Higher Self and work on a deeper level. While they have specific purposes discussed in class, the experience of their energy allows intuitive guidance in their use. Both levels of Karuna Reik®i will be given as well as instruction and practice on the use of all twelve symbols. You will be able to teach all levels of Karuna Reiki® after taking this class. Lots of practice time is included for giving treatments, using the symbols and for learning the attunement processes. We will also be doing a Reiki meditation to be aware of and heal the Shadow Self and using chanting and toning with Karuna Reiki®. 

A certificate and a manual are included with in depth descriptions of each symbol and each attunement process. 

You will also be offered the opportunity to become a "Registered Karuna Reiki® Master" with The International Center for Reiki Training (free). You will then be able to use their manuals and your student certificates will come from their Center. If you would like more information on becoming this process, please contact us at House of Skye-Yoga
