On Being a Master

I want to share an article that was written by Meg Blackburn Losey, PhD, author of "The Children of Now". Meg did not write this in relation to Reiki but I want to offer it as a set of guidelines for Reiki Masters. Let me know what you think.

         On Being a Master

A Master has accepted him or herself as exactly who they are.


A Master
has humbly accepted his or her assignments within their journey with no strings attached, no what-ifs, and no looking back to the past.


A Master
embodies the Living Truth with no drama, no trauma, in every moment that they are.


A Master
embodies personal integrity. This doesn't mean how honest we are in the world, but how honest we are within ourselves. Self deception is one of the greatest causes of fear. We can tell if we are in personal integrity if how we feel on the inside matches what we experience on the outside.


A Master
not only has learned to give, but to receive, having given him or herself value of equal measure across the board.


A Master
embodies love instead of practicing it as an ideal or an idea.


A Master
is able to find compassion for everyone including him or herself.


A Master
is everything that a Master teaches and is always aware that there is more to learn.


A Master
knows no comparison of experience. Each is on a perfect path to what his or her Soul seeks.


A Master
embraces all that he or she is faced with without fear, instead, with a full heart and of his or her wholeness.


A Master
sleeps well at night, knowing that he or she has done their very best in any given situation throughout the day and that's all he or she could have done.


A Master
knows there are no mistakes, only opportunities to change direction or to learn something, and then rather than beating him or herself up for it, can laugh at the humanity of it and go on to the next thing without dragging what was behind them.


A Master
looks to no one for approval, but is open to everyone to share what he or she has and accepting to new avenues of thought and wisdom others have gained. After all, we all have a piece of the puzzle.


A Master
basks not in ego, but in humility and wonder at the scope of the Infinite.


A Master
never feels as if her or she has learned it all because that is impossible except as a body of Light when we are encompassed within the Light of the Source.


A Master
carries the light everywhere he or she goes without judgment or attachment to outcome, after all, once it is shared, it will grow in accordance to the choices others make.


A Master
goes with the flow, allowing him or herself to regenerate, honoring that which he or she needs to be at their peak potential, for if one is truly within the flow, one gets as much as one gives.


A Master
needs no words such as these to convery the simplicity of the apparent complexity of what is. It just is.


A Master
is love, on Earth and everywhere beyond.
