there is no way that this should be attributed to Mikao Usui as there is little in this volume that resembles anything in his system so far as we know. This strange book purports to be his teaching but includes lots of things that are certainly outside of the scope of Usui Reiki Ryoho, including kundalini reiki, a 9th chakra, and bad reproductions of incorrect symbols. it's novel, but whack... I think it may derive from an indonesian (apparent) reiki teacher named Yan Nurindra...
a significant book when it was first pubished and likely fairly significant in 2024. this is purportedly the actual handbook from the Usui Reiki Gakkai (association) in Japan and is attributed to Mikao Usui. There are background information texts about buddhism and japanese culture and reiki. The bulk of the rest of the book is the healing manual (translated) which show hand positions and treatment for various ailments and conditions
After being attuned into Reiki i have tried to search Mikao Usui in life tricks and found this book. Far from the hands positions that are more than many any reiki introduced person should have it
The Original Reiki Handbook of Dr. Mikao Usui: The Traditional Usui Reiki Ryoho Treatment Positions and Numerous Reiki Techniques for Health and Well-being by Mikao Usui
Anonther classic Reiki book that further opened up the true history of the system as research continued in Japan in the late 90's. Another book that should be on every Reiki practitioners shelf!
