The Original Reiki Ideals/Affirmations

The secret art of inviting happiness
The miraculous medicine of all diseases
Just for today, do not anger
Do not worry and be filled with gratitude
Devote yourself to your work. Be kind to people.

Every morning and evening, join your hands in prayer.
Pray these words to your heart
and chant these words with your mouth

The Western style versions of the Principles/Affirmations have

adopted the following format.

The principles have been "Westernised" to be better understood in a very different culture, but still have tremendous value.

Just for today do not worry

Just for today do not anger
Honor your parents, teachers and elders

Earn your living honestly
Show gratitude to every living thing

Again, this is just one of many "Westernised" versions of the Reiki Principles. We at TLC Reiki Society prefer to use the Original Ideals as handed down to the world by Dr. Mikao Usui.
