Lineages

I thought this was the best folder to share lineages until/if we get a folder specifically for lineages.

Wayne had asked me to share mine, so here goes.

Through JoAnn Swedock, my lineage looks like...

Usui
Hyashi
Takata
Virginia Samdahl
Rosemary Cathcart
Diane Stein
Thomas Oakley

Interestingly enough, and I'll have to ask JoAnn about this, she has two columns, one is the one I gave above, and one goes down to Diane Stein as though she got her level 1 and 2 from Diane, but shows a different lineage...

Iris Ishikuro
Arthur Robertson
Dianne MacCumber
Caridwyn Aleva
Diane Stein

From my father, he received his through William Rand's center in Michigan. Not sure if he got it directly from Rand or one of his associates at the center... but their lineage would have come from Rand, so here is a good link to William Rand's lineage.

I met alan, was introduced to him by Robert Jefford. I really liked alan, btw. Seems a decent chap.

Usui
Hayashi
Takata
Virginia Samdahl
Joseph Sparti
John Thomas

(this is from the GRMA (Joseph Sparti=ShadowWolf) free reiki attunements that were
offered around 1999-2001 on their reiki.net. Joseph Sparti died of lung cancer at
65 in 2005)

*flexes his #6 in lineage reiki attunement*

yes Allan is good guy, a good friend - we kept contact continually for over 10 years now, and worked on some projects together.

only thing is I can not find anything on Mrs. Hirai.
I mailed Mr. James Deacon to ask if he had come across this name in his research... nope.
Allan is passing on what came from Okajima-sensei, who is a prominent Aikido 8th dan sensei, when Allan met him in Osaka in 98, and the lineage with Mrs Hirai was told to him when he received the initiations.
but here is his profile:
http://www.aikidoyuishinkai.com/ByronSeminar2009/Taiki%20Okajima%20Sensei%20Profile.pdf
Okajima-sensei, from the articles and papers and workshops (in aikido) i've managed to find on the guy he is focused very strongly on the healing arts of aikido, and other japanese reijutsu and ki healing methods (hope i'm using the term correctly)

Okajima-sensei was however trained by Minoru Hirai (1903-1998) who is the only Hirai i have found in relation to Okajima sensei.
http://www.aikidojournal.com/article?articleID=87

I have sent a mail enquiry to Okajima-sensei´s office in Osaka, but haven´t heard anything back yet.

thanks for this new info bro! i not got time to read it properly tonight, lots of personal matters going on, but will follow your links.

hope you manage to sort them all out.

no worries mate

Good point, I also had the same teacher for all levels.

something to ponder about. Lineage is important as it lets other know what way we were trained. However, Robert Fueston recalled to me today, something Huyakuten Inamoto told him (i'm para-phrasing here):

Lineage does not make one more or less noble...it is your deeds that do that.

warmest wishes
