For those who have mastered the Second Degree of Reiki, regularly practice, and feel internally ready to continue working in the flow of Reiki but on a deeper level requiring more responsibility, I invite you to undergo training for the Third Degree.
The third degree is called "Shinpiden," which translates from Japanese as "mystical teaching." The course includes further spiritual training, initiation into the master symbol, and mastery of the skill of self-initiation. Initiation into the third degree increases the power of Reiki in a person, giving them a sense of connection with the "divine light," and can greatly support the process of self-improvement, but it does not relieve them of the work on themselves. The practice of various meditations and energy exercises included in Shinpiden helps progress along the spiritual path and brings one closer to their own enlightenment, or satori.
The goal of the third-degree Reiki course is to teach self-improvement through Reiki energy.
