Reiki Consciousness

The Reiki precepts, called ‘Gokai’ in Japanese, form the very foundation of Mikao Usui’s system
for self-healing and spiritual development, simply known as ‘Reiki’ in the West.
The five core principles of Sensei Usui are contained within the whole text seen above. The
writing is read from top to bottom, right to left. Commonly called The Five Precepts, they start in
the third column from the right below the space, and continue in the fourth and fifth columns
from the right.
Usui Sensei said that we must first heal the mind/spirit before the body can be healed
successfully, and taught his students to recite a series of precepts to help bring those qualities
into daily life. He called Reiki “The secret art of inviting happiness (shoufuku no hihoo) – the
spiritual medicine for all diseases of body and mind (manbyo no ley-yaku).”
In their original language, the words have a ‘mantric’ quality and energy of their own (English
Translation below) :
Shofuku no hiho,
Manbyo no reiyaku.
Kyo dake wa:
Okoru na,
Shinpai su na,
Kansha shite,
Gyo wo hakeme,
Hito ni shinsetsu ni.
Asayu gassho shite kokoro ni nenji,
Kuchi ni tonae yo.
Shinshin kaizen.
Usui Reiki Ryoho.
Choso,
Usui Mikao

English Translation:
The secret art of inviting happiness,
The miraculous medicine for all diseases.
At least for today:
Do not be angry,
Do not worry,
Be grateful.
Work with diligence,
Be kind to people.
Every morning and evening, join your hands in meditation and pray with your heart.
State in your mind and chant with your mouth.
For improvement of mind and body.
Usui Reiki Ryoho.
The founder,
Mikao Usui.
