Near the end of life, the body is often failing and emaciated. While a physician may need to examine the body, in doing Reiki the comfort of the patient and the family in this moment does not require it. As the consciousness is preparing toleave the body, the need to unify all the Chakras is no longer as critical and the opening of the Crown Chakra allows the channeling of Spiritual Energy most useful for Equanimity and for transition. Prior to death we see the bodily functions of the root, second, and third chakras shutting down. With death, the heart ceases beating, and respiratiosn occuring in the chest and through the throat stop. The Medical Personnel perceive death as occuring at that moment, however, as a final step, the spirit departs the body through the Crown Chakra. The beautiful transition of the Spirit can be perceived by the attuned Reiki Practitioner. Depemding on the grounding and attunement of the Practitioner, this can be an uplifting and beautiful experience, but, it can if faced with fear and without adequate grounding leve perceptions of disorientation and fear.
During this time of transition it is important that the Practitioner remain grounded and in prayers. Revernce and respect for this process is extremely important. by being a facilitator of the transition between life and death, we are stepping out as it were of the realm of life temporarily. In the capacity of facilitator we are in effect holding that person's spiritual handas they transition out of their body. Deep grounded breathing, staying focused, and remembering to shield our own spirits will be of tantamount importance as we do this. We cannot allow fear to take hold at any point, as fear is simply negative faith. We have what we manifest, and what we want to manifest is peace and the Spiritual Energy of Equanimity. In order to maniest this, we first have to have this same spirit working within and without of ourselves.
