Thanks for making this section Wayne....
Our family farm is inhabited by a couple of colorful horses...colorful in regard to their personalities. Two years ago I was living Reiki only. No other distractions in my life...I was connected...it is bliss...
Everyday I drove to the farm and would walk it, in solitude, no distractions, a walking meditation of sorts.
This day, was extremely windy...probably around 60 to 80 kph. The horse were up wind of me. They could not see, hear or smell my presence. In the pasture, there is a particular Red Cedar tree, that is very big, and very old, and has a rather beautiful energetic signature to it.I kneeled down in the traditional Japanese position...I can say it , but not spell it...seiza maybe, realized DKM, with hands together over my heart.
I wanted to see if i could get the horses attention in a manner that I had never tried before...through intention and compassion.
Energy flowed...and I called to them with my intent...It took little time before they noticed, and calmly walked towards me... I put my elbows on my knees, palms up, and loved them in my heart. Their noses found my palms, where they nuzzled for I would guess, around 10 minutes, at which time, first one, then the other, calmly walked away to do horse things.
It was amazing....energy flowing through me to them, their eyes would soften and sometimes close...I felt the creator of all things with us in a small way..It was amazing to look up and see these two huge thoroughbreds towering over me, docile and half asleep.
Such is Reiki, in it`s ability to calm the most skittish of animals on an extremely windy day...A thing I will never forget. A small thing to some...
