Grand Master Reiki Levels
Reiki Grandmaster Level is only for the people who wish to further develop themselves into a Reiki Master. Here, they will have access to all the Reiki Master symbols and are allowed to perform attunement process on others. More complex healing cycles will be taught at this level, with the aim of expanding your Reiki influence. As the meaning goes, this is a teaching level and is recommended for those who are committed to Reiki and want to take up the responsibility of teaching Reiki to others but at the same time, it is not strictly denied to those who want it for themselves only. At this level the emphasis is on the ability to pass attunements to others, not on healing abilities. Attunement is a process, which activates the ability to transmit and use Reiki. It is to be done personally by a Reiki teacher through a process called "attunement". The process is also called empowerment or initiation and is the most important part of Reiki learning/training, which must be done by a living Reiki teacher. It is not possible to become a Reiki healer without receiving the attunement. Attunement is a ritual and an act performed by the Reiki teacher that creates a healer. It is done in a special manner to activate the energy channels and allow Reiki energy to flow through the recipient's energy system and adjust it so that it can carry the Reiki energy.
As soon as the attunement is complete, the recipient becomes a Reiki healer and can begin giving healing sessions. Attunement is not a healing process. Do not expect to be cured of all your diseases just through attunement. It is only meant to activate the ability to heal. After receiving the attunement, you have to use Reiki regularly to cure yourself or others. Every Reiki teacher has his/her own way of passing the attunements.
