Karuna is a Sanskrit word and it is use in Hinduism, Buddhism and Zen . It is translated to mean any action that is taken to diminish the suffering of others and could also be translated as “compassionate action”. When individuals experience enlightenment, they report that all begins 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 begin benefits. Because of the oneness of all begins, it is also state 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 begins who are working to end suffering on earth. Karuna is being send by all enlightened begins. Thus, your healing is quickened
Karuna Reiki founded by Mr. William l. Rand. At the age of 18, Rand became inspired by a booklet he read about the Rosicrucian Order, a group dedicated to studying the metaphysical aspects of the universe. “I was fascinated by the idea that people have hidden or dormant abilities-some of them quite unusual-and if we do different exercises, we can develop those abilities and live an extraordinary life,”
Says the Reiki practitioner. Impressed and intrigued, Rand decided to join the Rosicrucian’s and soon explored the spiritual sphere by dabbling rebirth and other metaphysical practices. After building his background in metaphysics, Rand was better equipped to comprehend the value of Reiki when he first discovered the practice. Despite his history with the unseen world, he’d never encountered anything quite like it. “I realized it was very special, and it used quite an unusual energy,” he states. Rand officially began studying Reiki in 1981 but instantly realized he wasn’t so much studying the practice as he was awakening it from within himself. “Unlike other practices where you study for months or years before you have any skill at all, you receive the ability immediately,” he says. His latent skills unlocked, Rand spent eight years honing it and began teaching Reiki himself in 1989. Much like learning to use the technique, Rand also considers the ability to teach to be a gift. “In the teacher training, he receive an attunement, which bestows upon you the ability to do the attunement,” he states. It’s a self-perpetuating gift that passes from person to person, inspiring them to pass the knowledge on to others while also granting them access to the words, tools and motivation necessary to share it. Rand considers his modified form of Reiki to be “higher dimensional,” and this new version of the healing practice is believed to be more effective than the traditional style.
