Comments
Paul Carty commented: I have also heard that reiki was foeundd on Kurama. My wife used to run a cafe there and many devotees would come and begin to tell her how mystical the mountain here is. So she became curious and asked lots of neighbors. It seems no one in Kurama had ever seen or met the guy who claims to have foeundd Reiki there. Just something to keep in mind. John D responds: It's curious that so few Japanese seem to know about reiki, and that even here in Kyoto hardly anybody seems to know about its origins. I have a book on Kurama entitled Reiki's Birthplace: A Guide to Kurama Mountain' written by Jessica A. Miller which details the way in which the founder Usui Mikao was inspired while on retreat on Kurama. But even a cursory glimpse at Wikipedia provides the following: The system of Reiki was developed by Mikao Usui (臼井甕男) in 1922 whilst performing Isyu Guo, a twenty-one day Buddhist training course held on Mount Kurama.
