Comments by past International Students (Photo - San Francisco class 2008)
You have uncovered the beautiful harmony of the system of Reiki. Thank you for your invaluable research and energy work! This is the kind of Reiki I want to spread on and make known to the world. Matti Tappinen, Finland
For me, after 6 years of Reiki practice and three Reiki Master teachers, I found the right teacher in the internationally acclaimed author Frans Stiene. It was Frans that showed me the truth and the depth about Reiki. I understand the simple, complete and profound system created by Usui Mikao. Only four days with Frans Stiene has turned my view of Reiki upside down and shockingly now the right side is up and it makes sense and feels right! The useless appendages to Reiki as I had understood it before have fallen off, the superstitions have vanished and a simpler system stands before me. I, the student, the practitioner, the teacher have come back into the center of the practice. My personal practice is the price. My personal freedom, perfection in my life and healing work, and truthful personal teachings are the prizes! Frans combines in his approach humility, honor for the truth, and humor to make his classes delightful. I open-heartedly recommend his classes to you. Go in with an open mind to his classes, and when you leave, it is possible that you will feel gutted as the old beliefs and untruths leave, but what you will be left with is the truth in its beauty and its simplicity. Here's intending that you too go forth and bring the light of truth into you and through you into your world!" Sundar, USA
