Основы Рэйки. Полное руководство по древнему искусству исцеления
Рэйки – это древняя, простая и вместе с тем могущественная система исцеления «наложением рук». В «Основах Рэйки» дается полная информация обо всех Трех Ступенях этой системы. Большая часть информации о Рэйки печатается впервые. В своей книге Дайяна Стайн попыталась снять покров таинственности, которым всегда окружали эту древнюю систему исцеления, и рассекретила Символы Рэйки. Символы эти действительно священны, но «священны» и «секретны» – давно уже не синонимы. Для того чтобы люди узнали о священном, оно должно быть для них доступно. Хотя ни одна книга не может заменить прямое получение посвящения Рэйки, в «Основах Рэйки» дается все то, что нужно для освоения этой системы, кроме самой инициации.
