LINEAGE
What Is Reiki Lineage?
Reiki lineage is said to refer to the line of Reiki Masters that leads to the student. Some organisations believe that for traditional Reiki the line begins with Dr Usui, and continues with one of his Reiki Masters, and then to one of theirs and so it continues. They also say that: For a healing system to be called Reiki and be recognized as such, the lineage must trace back to Mikao Usui.
This is not always the case. Therefore the ERF will accept personal attunements obtained through direct empowerment.
