I'm not sure if folks interchange the
word Universal to mean Reiki. Do we
have any clarification that these two
words mean the same?

hmm, maybe place a little 'Usui Shiki' in front of that, to be more pedantic... hehe.

If you are asking can the Japanese word 'Reiki' be translated as 'universal'
- that is 'universal' in the sense of:
"existing or occurring everywhere "
then No, not directly

There is no difference in a reiki and Universal Energy they are same. But if any body saying there is difference than again it is difference of his mind not energy, Energy has no name.. It is Omni present and same for everybody and all univeses.....
take care

to have Reiki which one of the hundred's

Q) Then, is it psychic method of treatment?
A) Usui: "Yes, you could say that. But you could also say it is physical method of treatment. The reason why is Ki and light are emanated from healer's body, especially from eyes, mouth and hands. So if healer stares or breathes on or strokes with hands at the affected area such as toothache, colic pain, stomach-ache, neuralgia, bruises, cuts, burns and other swellings with pain will be gone. However a chronic disease is not easy, it's needed some time. But a patient will feel improvement at the first treatment. There is a fact more than a novel how to explain this phenomenon with modern medicine. If you see the fact you would understand. Even people who use sophistry can not ignore the fact."

That's also the reason I tend to never say that I send or give Reiki
Frank wrote:Hi,
Hmm, interesting. I wouldn't call it power or energy of thought either.
I do 'send' energy and I am able to distinguish (and 'use'/'send') several different energy frequencies but I wouldn't call it Reiki. "Reiki" is a word for the energy coming from the highest possible consciousness, in my humble view and experience with Usui Reiki Ryōhō (as I already explained).
If I would say I sent someone Reiki, I would also say/imply something about my consciousness.
I know very well that I am not enlightened, that I have not experienced the highest possible level of consciousness to the fullest and I know that there is still a lot to learn and experience. That is why I would never say I use or send Reiki.
But that's just me and my take on this and what I learned from my teachers.
There is of course nothing wrong with using the word as a general term for any kind of universal energy. It's just that it might create confusion.
