Thougts on ReiKi., i went to the course, more will follow.. Options

I was thikning of going to a ReiKi class this weekend, apparently it takes all weekend is the 1st stage of 3.

But... is it worth it? I've heard alot about ReiKi and it's all good, but is it biased?
Also it costs a hell of a lot, very expensive indeed!

Any thoughts, is it worth the money?
Is it something i can do with just a simple ritual (Middle Pillar anyone?) or is it really helpfull indeed even for those that do rituals on a weekly basis (or whatever)

Thankfull for all replies.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/7.gif) Greetings. I have been toiling with the idea of studying Reiki with a view to attaining some reiki qualification; not necessarily mastership. Disregarding the claims of mastership of the arts at 15 (which I know personally is IMPOSSIBLE) I would welcome the views of genuine reiki adepts/masters here who could point me in the direction of the best reiki system to use.

I give the HunterWhiteWolf the perfect opportunity to outline the system of Reiki he has mastered in ... (in his own words and not cut and paste from a site on the net) ...

I have some grasp of reiki has I have friends over here who are studying and have studied. I have an associate who is a master of Tai Chung (I think that's how you spell it) and she has sufficient level to teach. Her husband can teach ... and the only thing which puts me off is the excessive costs for the final parts of the Reiki courses.

When back in the Uk I had been quoted 250.00 Sterling for the 1st level then 1000.00 Sterling for the next level and a further 2500.00 for the final level. I find that excessive.

It would be interesting to learn how our young friend gained mastership so young and for free. From the friends I have I know it has taken them over 10 years to get through all ... and have by no means learnt everything. Unless we have a golden child/chosen one/prodigy in our ranks it is unlikely HunterWhiteWolf is seriously a master. He would have needed to begin at 5 or 6 and I doubt any master would teach someone that age. Many of the concepts require a qualified mind to grasp. The complexity of the human biology and physiology would be too much for a child's mind.

I cannot believe the claims and tend to agree with Mediocracy that it is indeed role playing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/fie.gif)

First hand experience of the concepts for one point me to this. I am qualified and used to study work/grasping principles & theology but even I find some of it taxing to say the least!

If it IS true and he can prove it ... then we have a prodigy in our midst and a poor soul who has missed out on an essential part of life .... that of childhood ...
