What is Holy Fire®Reiki?

Holy Fire® and Karuna Reiki® are registered service marks of William Lee Rand.

Holy Fire® Reiki is being introduced by the International Center for Reiki Training.

It is both powerful and gentle and provides purification, healing, empowerment and guidance. Holy Fire® Reiki is a combination of traditional Usui Reiki and a contemporary evolution of Reiki. Holy Fire® is included as part of the Usui Reiki classes and has also been added to Karuna Reiki® training.

“Holy Fire® is demonstrating so many more qualities and benefits and is more refined and coming from a higher level of consciousness than any other healing energy we have experienced. And in addition, it continues to develop and appears to have a tremendous potential to become ever more helpful and beneficial.” William Rand

Who was involved in the development of this system and what is the story behind it’s development?

Who is involved in the development of Holy Fire® Reiki, some in the ICRT had inklings of its energy for a year or more but it hadn’t expressed itself clearly enough to know how to use it. Then in January, 2014, William Rand had a session with a spiritual advisor he had been seeing for 19 years and who several of the other ICRT teachers had also been seeing. In this session he was told he would be teaching a new energy in the class he was to teach the next day. He was given the name of the energy, how to draw the symbol and an attunement for it. Then over the course of the class he had additional sessions prior to class in which it was further explained how to teach Holy Fire® Reiki.

Before announcing it to the Reiki community, it was taught to 250 students and found that the benefits remained consistent for all who took the class. Over time, additional instructions from the same source have been received to further develop the system. To be more specific, the energy of Holy Fire® Reiki and the instructions on how to teach it come from the Holy Spirit. With this in mind, it’s important to understand that there is no religious connection implied by this. However, what it does is create a direct connection to Source that is free of dogma or required beliefs or the need follow a leader. (answered by Laurelle Gaia)
