Paul Mitchell

Listen to this show

As students of Hawayo Takata, Paul Mitchell and Phyllis Furumoto, have spent the last 30 plus years practicing Reiki. Hearing the story from their master, Hawayo Takata, both were touched by the story in their own way. Throughout their practice, not only as students and teaching masters, but as representatives of the teachings to the Usui Shiki Ryoho community, Paul and Phyllis have had their own struggles with the questions of oral tradition, the facts of the story, and their individual understandings from the story itself. It is not just the story teller but the ears that hear and the memory that retains the words and impressions. This discussion is fraught with many undertones and held with great sincerity of heart.

In my travels through the world of Reiki, I meet many people. All of them have great stories, profound insights given through their practice with Reiki, and inspiring experiences. It is my joy to be able to share these with you through the interviews. Should you have an impulse to know more or have direct contact with the person being interviewed, their email address or web site address is included. I am grateful for the willingness of these students of Reiki to share with you a glimpse of their Reiki path.
