Jahnava Nitai Das 2 Report post Posted June 12, 2000 For a change I thought it would be nice to post something in this forum about Reiki. We have just added three more articled on the Vedic understanding of Reiki. You may read the articles on the Reiki page. Here is a small clipping: Ten kinds of life airs - Pranas The vital force of life includes 5 main categories of life air, viz., prana, apana, vyana, samana and udana, assisted by 5 other categories of subtle life-airs viz., naga, kurma, gregara, devadatta, and dhananjaya. The vital force is like a snake because it is sustained by air, (snakes can subsist simply by drinking air) and when there is derangement of air, the vital force is weakened and thus with lesser resistance the body becomes a victim of diseases. Mental diseases are results of derangement of the subtle airs. Harmonizing the sustenance of vital force by meditation (like Reiki meditation) is especially beneficial to keep the airs ‘in order’ so that the diseases of the body become almost ‘nil’ by such exercise. When this is properly done, vital force need not be used up unnecessarily in fighting diseases. Thus, naturally the life-span will also increase. If one becomes really perfect in this, even control of death is possible, as has been proved by the great yogis of India. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
