Hi!
I just realized I may have placed this thread on the wrong chatroom. Moderators, please feel free to move the thread!
OK, Jourei (often spelled Johrei) is another healing energy, similar to reiki, that popped up in Japan around the 1930's, approximately ten years after Mikao Usei started doing his own thing.
It is an energy that feels different to reiki and seems to have its own character. A man named Mokichi Okada had a spiritual experience and began spontaneously manifesting the energy. Okada and his followers began a religion with its set of teachings being what Okada taught. The Johrei Fellowship largely believes that, using Johrei and the teachings of Okada, paradise can be attained on earth (as an aside, Okada was one of the first proponents of organic farming) through the use of spiritual purification.
Johrei is taught to be an energy that triggers spiritual and physical purification.
My teacher (Don Beckett) was a member of the Johrei Fellowship, but he broke away and began teaching his own system of Jourei (hence the different spelling). I started a Facebook group offering free healing with the energy and one of our admins is a member of the Johrei Fellowship. He often posts the teachings of Okada and the Church while I tend to approach the energy's use from a more "secular" format.
I am not a member of the Johrei Fellowship. I often use it as I do reiki, but I can appreciate both energies and find they work well together.
I conceptualize it this way (borrowing the ideas of Rick Rivard): some people love chocolate cake, other love carrot cake, and still others prefer Vanilla. Jourei is like Carrot cake while Reiki is like Chocolate. Neither is better or stronger, they just taste differently!
(BTW, Johrei is a trademarked spelling)
