Hi All
Here is a rare opportunity to hear Hawayo Takata telling the story of Mikao Usui and how he found Reiki. The quality is quite poor but it is from a tape recorded in 1979...and, yes, I know that this version of the story has elements which do not appear to be historically correct but it is the way people first heard about Reiki in the West and we should respect that. If Mrs Takata had not chosen to tell this story, none of us would be practicing Reiki today!

You can also hear a short excerpt of Mrs Takata talking about a chicken farmer who gave Reiki to his chickens and a cowboy, who re-attached his finger, after cutting it off in a lawnmower, and gave it Reiki to heal it, in the show previous to this one 25th February.
