To understand what is the Karuna Reiki is essential to begin to understand the real meaning of the word karuna that can be translated as compassion. The word Karuna means “compassionate action”, any action to reduce suffering for all beings.
It makes us realize that we are all part of a whole, that everyone and everything is interconnected. Karuna or “compassion” has nothing to do with feeling “pity or shame.” Being compassionate means acknowledging the suffering of another person or being and doing for free.
In fact, Buddhism says that to be effective Karuna must be accompanied by wisdom, that is, adequate knowledge and appropriate tools to act in a certain situation with a single purpose: to alleviate or relieve suffering, to act humanely.
Karuna is the connection to a higher energy frequency, energy potent and profound. Is a stronger connection with Universal Energy and, in turn, this connection creates a stronger bond and in turn closer to our higher self.
When it is said that Karuna open to unconditional love, divine love, love for all beings or Karuna defined as a loving energy, not to be confused with any of these terms soft or weak. It is rather the opposite: the compassionate energy is a high vibrational frequency and therefore very powerful.
The Karuna Reiki therapist has the ability to connect to the energy channel of universal compassion. Karuna Reiki is working with have the “wisdom” as Buddhism, to spread loving energy of high vibration to all creation.
