Introduction

Welcome to White Dove Reiki. Although there are many forms of Reiki, White
Dove Reiki enables the Reiki practitioner to have assistance in the Healing and

Attunement process. While most Reiki Masters and Practitioners use different
modalities to focus the energies during healings and attunements, White Dove
Reiki enables the individual to have a central focal point in which to direct those
energies, and transfer the collected energy into the receiver. Within this manual,
you will learn how White Dove Reiki can assist you and enable you to be more
effective in your practices. White Dove Reiki was given to me in the hope that
Reiki Masters and practitioners will embrace, use and pass it along to others. I
sincerely hope you find White Dove Reiki to be of great value to you and that it
will assist you within your Reiki practices. It is with our hearts, whether through
love, devotion, or concern of others that we reach out with Reiki for the overall
good of our fellow mankind.

History of White Dove Reiki 

White Dove Reiki was given to me in a vision during a deep meditation. During
this deep meditation, the White Dove approached me in such a way as I was not

afraid to receive it. The White Dove was very pure and free and I gladly accepted
the offering. I have received many attunements before and have been
overwhelmed by the energy that was transferred to me. But receiving this
attunement was a peaceful and enlightening feeling. In subsequent meditations
the symbols used in White Dove Reiki came to me. From these visions, the
development of WDR began.

White Dove Reiki was developed with the Reiki practitioner in mind. Although
White Dove Reiki is new and has a relatively short history, its use is of great
assistance to the Reiki Master and practitioner. It utilizes the concept of
visualizing energy carried on the wings of a White Dove to the receiver and then
being absorbed by them.

In this method, the Reiki Master can concentrate all the energies of reiki directly
into the white dove. The White Dove represents the purity of energy and
therefore gives the Reiki Master the ability to have the purity and freeness of the
White Dove to assist in the Attunement and Healing process.

The Chakras

Chakra is a Sanskrit w
word
ord meaning “wheel” or “disk”. Chakras are the subtle
energy centers of our bodies that turn and 'process' the life force energy inside of
us. In the Hindu system, there are seven main chakras in the body. Each chakra
resonates at a different frequency and vibrational rate, and. Each chakra has a
specific color, function and symbol. The chakras are all located in the center of
the body. In traditional Western Reiki, this is where the hand positions are held.

The Gassho with WDR

The word gassho means literally “to place the tw


two
o palms together”. Gassho is
one of several mudras, symbolic hand gestures or positions, though it is possibly

the most essential mudra. Its use characterizes the depths of one’s
enlightenment. Though the gassho is used for many purposes, it is commonly
used to express respect, to express the One Mind, to unify polarities, and to
focus. This last use is especially useful in reiki.

In Buddhism there are many different types of gassho, used for as many different
purposes. The two more commonly used g
gassho
assho are the firm gassho and the
gassho of no-mind. In each g
gassho
assho the eyes are kept focused on the fingertips.

The Firm Gassho— The most formal of all the gasshos, it is most commonly
used in daily Buddhist practices, and during all Buddhist services.

The firm gassho is made by placing your hands together, palm to palm in front of
your face. Your fingers and palms should be placed firmly together with your
fingers straight rather than bent. Your elbows should be held out a bit of a
distance from the body, with the forearms not quite parallel with the floor. There
is about a hand’s width distance between the hands and your nose. Your

fingertips should be even with the tip of your nose.

The Gassho of No-Mind— The next most common gassho. It is used in


Buddhism to greet one another or to greet their teachers.

In this gassho, the hands are held a bit more loosely with a slight space between
the palms. Your elbows are held at about a forty-five degree angle to the floor.
Your elbows are not held at as high of an elevation as in the Firm Gassho.

14   Rev. Richard D. Kidd


 

In your reiki practice you may choose to use whichever form of gassho you feel
most comfortable with.

In White Dove Reiki the gassho is used to focus upon your intent and to become
one with the energies of reiki.

Experiences from WDR Attunements

After the receiving your White Dove Reiki Attunement, you may feel a little light
headed, experience shaking in your hands, or feelings of being a bit

overwhelmed. Some people feel a warm glow throughout their body for several
hours or days after their attunement. Others feel nothing different at all.

Everyone who has been attuned has felt things a little different. Many claim to
have felt nothing at all. Rest assured that the lack of feeling something is not the
result of the attunement not working. You may not feel the effects right away, but
as time passes and you begin your practice of the White Dove Reiki, you will find
that the subtle effects will become more noticeable to you.

Here are a couple testimonies from people who have received a White Dove
Reiki Attunement:

• From Allison Dahlhaus, Sacred Flames Reiki Founder

“Hi Rick,

Wow, that was wonderful.


wonderful. There's a lot of tingling in my third
third eye area as

well as at the crown. Very cool! I am honored to be one of the first to


receive this beautiful energy - thank you so much! ... For your friendship
friendship
and kindness.

Many Blessings,
Alli”

16   Rev. Richard D. Kidd


 

• From Rose Kidd, Kiddarian Tradition Founder & President

“I felt a large disc of golden colored energy bloom right at my third eye
charka. It glowed brightly and beams of the golden light radiated straight
straight
into my body quickly filling
filling my whole body. I had fallen asleep and it woke
me suddenly. Afterwards, the sensation remained with
with me for several
hours and now days later I still feel the presence of the white dove when I
close my eyes. Thank you for this wonderful gift.

---Rose”

Self Healings

After receiving your attunement to White Dove Reiki, you should now begin doing
self healings. Begin by setting up your peaceful space. For example, light

candles, play music, and then invite the White Dove to assist you.

Set your intention for the White Dove Reiki self healing to work perfectly and for
your Highest Good. Imagine the White Dove filling with violet or white energy
increasing as you continue. You can then say, “White Dove Reiki, please assist
me in this self healing.”

It is perfectly acceptable if you feel comfortable with inviting others to join you,
such as Angels, Patron Deities, Faeries, or Ascended Masters. After filling the
White Dove with the energy, you must direct it to assist you in your self healing.

Continue focusing your concentration on the White Dove filled with the energies
of Reiki. Imagine in the distance the dove appears. It is flying toward you. You
may imagine that it is glowing with energy. It flies steadily until it reaches you.
Direct the White Dove to merge into you, and then guide it to each chakra for as
long as you feel it is necessary to do so.

Hold your hands (with palms facing down) slightly above your base or root
chakra cleansing and healing your base chakra.

Move your hands up until they are slightly above your sacral charka, cleansing
and healing your sacral charka.

Move up and slightly above your solar plexus, cleansing and healing your solar
plexus.

18   Rev. Richard D. Kidd


 

Move up and slightly above the heart chakra, cleansing and healing your heart
chakra.

Move up and slightly above the third eye chakra, cleansing and healing your third
eye chakra.

Now hold your hands (with palms still facing down) over your crown chakra,
cleansing and healing your crown chakra. Now visualize the energy from the
White Dove traveling down from your crown chakra all the way down to the
bottom of your feet.

Imagine the energy from the White Dove flowing down into the ground where it
heals the Earth as well. Now place your hands in the Gasho position, and thank

the White Dove for assisting in the self healing. Now you are finished. Even if
you don’t feel a change right away, don’t worry. Reiki works and it has w
worked.

Hands-On and Distance Healings

White Dove Reiki can be used with other energy healing practices or by itself.
When doing any Reiki session, you should always allow your intuition to be your

guide. You should already know the reason that the healing is needed, and your
clients health problems are. If you are unsure of what the problems are, simply
set your intention for White Dove Reiki, to be for the Highest Good of the
receiver.

Your client should also set his/her intention to receive the healing energies of
White Dove Reiki. Your client should be lying down comfortably, or sitting with
both feet on the floor and be free from distractions for at least 15 minutes. When
doing distance healings, it is not necessary for you to set up a date and time, but
if you should decide to do so, that is fine. If both you and your client decide to set
up a date and time, he/she should set their intention to receive this healing and
close his/her eyes and relax.

Begin by setting up your peaceful space. For example, light candles, play music,
burn incense or whatever you might need to help you concentrate and then invite
the White Dove to assist you.

Imagine the White Dove filling with violet or white energy increasing as you
continue. You can then say: White Dove Reiki, please join me in sharing the
energies and healings with: “receiver’s name.” It is perfectly acceptable if you feel
comfortable with inviting others to join you, such as Angels, Patron Deities,
Faeries, or Ascended Masters.

After filling the White Dove with the energy, you must direct the White Dove to
the receiver. Continue focusing on the white dove, and once it has reached the
receiver, direct it to merge into him/her. Once it has merged with the receiver,
you can now focus on each chakra for as long as you fell it is necessary to do so.

White Dove Reiki  21


 

Hold your hands, palms facing down, (if this is a distance healing, you can just
visualize this) slightly above the receiver's base/root charka. Say the “receiver’s
name” cleansing and healing his/her base chakra.

Hold your hands are over the receiver's sacral chakra. Say the “receiver’s name”
cleansing and healing his/her sacral charka.

Hold your hands are up and above the solar plexus. Say the “receiver’s name”
cleansing and healing his/her solar plexus.

Hold your hands are up and above the heart charka, Say the “receiver’s name” 
cleansing and healing his/her heart charka.

Hold your hands are up and above the third eye chakra. Say the “receiver’s
name” cleansing and healing his/her third eye charka.

Now, hold your hands, palms still facing down, over the receiver's crown chakra.
Say the “receiver’s name” cleansing and healing his/her crown charka.

Now visualize the energy from the White Dove slowly traveling down from the
receiver's crown chakra all the way down to the bottom of his/her feet. Imagine
the energy flowing down into the ground where it heals the Earth as well.

Now put your hands in the Gasho position, give thanks to the White Dove for
assisting you in the distance healing. Now you are finished. Even if y
you
ou don’t
feel a change right away,
away, don’t worry. Reiki works and it has worked.

Picking Up Negative Energies

If you feel that after you have done a healing or attunement on someone and you
have picked up the person's symptoms or you feel worn out, don't worry, it's a

very common mistake and this can be easily remedied.

Just call upon the white dove, fill it with white light energy, and then allow the
white dove to be absorbed into your entire body.

Imagine as you inhale, the light from the white dove fills your entire body. Feel it
travel all the way down from your fingers to your toes, and then when you exhale,
imagine that everything that is not the light from the white dove is being expelled
out.

Hands-On and Distance Attunements

After receiving your attunement to White Dove Reiki, you can then begin passing
it on to others through the following attunement method. This method is effective

for both hands-on and distant attunements.

When giving distance attunements, it is suggested that you set up a date and
time for the attunement that is convenient for both you and the receiver. He/she
should set their intention to receive the attunement, by closing his/her eyes and
relaxing.

Begin by setting up your peaceful place. For example, light candles, play music,
And invite the White Dove to assist you. Set the intention for the White Dove
Reiki attunement to work perfectly and for the Highest Good of the receiver.

Imagine the White Dove filling with violet or white energy increasing as you
continue. You can then say, “White Dove, please join me in sharing the energies
and initiation into White Dove Reiki with ‘receiver’s name.’” It is perfectly
acceptable if you feel comfortable with inviting others to join you, such as Angels,
Patron Deities, Faeries, or Ascended Masters.

After filling the White Dove with the energy, you should then direct the White
Dove to the receiver. Continue focusing on the White Dove, until it has reached
the receiver. Then direct the White Dove to merge into the receiver. N
Now
ow you
can begin focusing on each chakra for as long as you fell it is necessary to do so.

Hold your hands (palms facing down) slightly above the receiver's base/root

When charging for Attunements or Healings for White Dove Reiki, remember that
it is up to you. As a WDR Master/Teacher, you set your own prices and ways in
which you are compensated for you time. Please remember that Reiki is a gift
that should be shared by all mankind, and all that I ask, is that you keep your
prices reasonable and set them accordingly.

It is up to you to find out what your local laws require in order for you to charge
for your services. Many states require anyone performing “hands-on” forms of
holistic medicine to register with their State Massage Board. To check y
your
our local
laws please visit http://www.sacredpath.org/html/reiki/legal/mtlstateleg.html .

Many states allow ordained ministers to practice alternative health practices as a


part of their religious or spiritual beliefs. There are many churches that are
willing to ordain ministers regardless of their personal beliefs. Below are two
such organizations, both of which I have been ordained by. Both are legally
recognized in most states. Please visit their sites for more information.

•  The Universal Light Church (http://www.theuniversallight.com ) is a non-


denominational church that registers people as Healing Ministers.

•  Universal Life Church (http://www.ulchq.net)


http://www.ulchq.net ) will ordain anyone without
question of their faith, for life and without fee.

I believe that White Dove Reiki is a gift for all mankind. If you feel that you
cannot provide healings or attunements to someone for any reason, including
their inability to afford your prices, please refer them to another WDR
Master/Teacher or to the WDR website.

Symbols

Symbols are used in most all forms of reiki. In White Dove Reiki these symbols
are used as “triggers”. Triggers are like a type of shorthand for your mind. The
WDR symbols are used to trigger your energies for specific purposes. Reiki
works with or without these symbols. Many people find it necessary to use the
symbols every time they administer reiki; others use them only as they feel
compelled to do so. How you use them is up to you. The table below features
each symbol as well as the uses of each symbol.

 


(Power Symbol)

Powers of the universe and reiki.

Use this symbol to draw the power of reiki


into yourself before you begin a reiki
healing or attunement.

Draw this symbol on your palms to draw


the power into your hands. Draw it onto the
palms of a person you are attuning to grant
them access to reiki power. Or use it as
you feel compelled to.
