Since
Reiki has been passed down via different Reiki Masters
and Reiki Teachers (Eastern and Western), you will
find there are variations in what is covered in Reiki
Three (both in substance and in form). However, the main
teachings should be covered. With the attunements
(initiation, empowerment), you are "connected" to the
Reiki Source, enabling you to become a channel for Reiki
Energy.
Reiki Level 3 Course (also known as Reiki Third Degree / Shinpiden) The
third degree in Reiki is for Reiki Practitioners who,
having completed the second degree, wish to become Reiki
Masters and Teachers. Most Reiki 3 courses or workshops
cover the following (not necessarily in this specific
order):
Quick recap of Reiki history, hand positions, principles and ethics, Symbols from previous learning, etc. (where necessary). Many Reiki Masters and Teachers expect you to wait for 6 to 12 months after completing your Reiki Second Degree before they accept you on a Reiki Master Teacher Course. Some Master Teachers will allow some students to have a shorter gap between Reiki Second and Third Degrees. Reiki III teaches you how to become a Master and Teacher. Completing the course is just the beginning ... your real Reiki journey begins as you learn to master Reiki Energy on a daily basis. When you then start teaching with an open mind, you also become a better Master. Note: some teachers offer the Third Degree as 3A (Master Course) and 3B (Teacher Course). You will find in some versions there are even more layers and levels. Take a course that teaches you what you need to know to become a Master and Teacher.
