Repairing of the World: Tikkun Olam תיקון עולם
Tikkun (teek-koon)- Union of The Feminine and Masculine Aspects of God. Olam (oh-LAHM)- Eternity, World, everlastingness Awakened in the night three times, and each time The Hebrew words "Tikkun Olam" were heard. Leslie also had a dream in which she heard the words "And The Holy One, through thought, brought the broken shards together with the 22 letters”. According to the Kabbalah, in the beginning, Our One Creator formed countless Vessels of Light to hold the Divine Light. Our One Creator poured into each vessel the Divine Light which is the Union of the Feminine and Masculine aspects of God in One. In each Vessel the Light was filled with True Love. Each Vessel was whole and complete, a world in itself. Each Vessel was in Union with God. When the Vessels of Light came into contact with the realm of matter each vessel shattered in two. These two broken shards of a single vessel were perfect matches, Twin Sparks and Twin Shards you might say, because the two came from the one Vessel of Light. One shard contained the Spark of the Divine Feminine Aspect of God and became known as Woman. The other broken shard contained the Spark of the Divine Masculine Aspect of God and became known as Man. The broken shards were scattered about the world. Humanity was given the task of helping God reunite the scattered light, re-pairing of the broken vessels and restoring the broken world. The Spark of the Divine in Each shard was given the task of finding its perfect mate, its Twin Spark, its Twin Shard, so they could find the True Love of God and become One Vessel of Light again. Thus the Re-Pairing of the Twinship of Woman and Man became the great task of Humanity the task of Tikkun Olam. Putting the Pieces Together
Rainbows are optical and meteorological phenomena
that cause a spectrum of light to appear in the sky when the
Sun shines onto droplets of moisture in the Earth's
atmosphere. They take the form of a multicolored arc, with
red on the outer part of the arch and violet on the inner
section of the arch. More rarely, a secondary rainbow is
seen, which is a second, fainter arc, outside the primary
arc, with colors in the opposite order, that is, with violet
on the outside and red on the inside.
A rainbow spans a continuous spectrum of colors. Traditionally, however, the sequence of colors is quantized. The most commonly cited and remembered sequence is the Sevenfold-- Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet. (Wikipedia.org)
The Seven Elements of Knowledge
Seven is a number that you will find of great significance in most every culture. Seven is in folklore, science and religion. The Seven is in our bodies and around us. Seven is the key that opens all knowledge and all wisdom. Seven is the key that opens Heavens Door.
As you reconnect with and look deeply into "The Seven Elements of Knowledge" a truly miraculous revelation begins to unfold within your whole being. Bits and pieces of understanding open up to you from everywhere. You awaken and realize you are being guided in your learning and that God is the One guiding you.
Those whose mind is well grounded in the Seven Elements of Knowledge, who without clinging to anything rejoice in the freedom from attachment, whose appetites have been conquered, and who are full of Light, they win Nirvana even in this world. (Buddha- The Teachings of the Compassionate Buddha- p.58)
Making the Connections
Ascension Reiki is about connecting Our Whole Being with the Reiki Source, Our One Creator. Through the Attunement Process of Ascension Reiki we become connected with the Whole of Reiki in and through Our Whole Being. Reiki brings Healing, Peace, Abundance, Joy, Love, Friendship and Happiness into all aspects or our lives.
Most people agree that we are more than physical beings. Many recognize that we are multidimensional beings made up of Body, Mind and Soul or Body Mind and Spirit. Some realize that we have a Will and others recognize we have a Higher Self and within the heart of that Higher Self is the Spark of the Divine.
When you put all the pieces together we come to know that there are Seven Distinct Aspects of Our Being:
With further study and discernment we discover that our Bodies have four distinct layers. It is through these four bodies that the higher aspects or our being find expression in the material world.
Realization!
Wouldn't you know it! There are Four Directions, Four Conditions of Material Nature, Four Modes of Divine Nature, Four Symbols of Reiki Ryoho, Four Fields of Reiki, The Four Truths of the Great Law taught by Yeshua (Jesus) and The Four Noble Truths taught by Buddha.

The Sanskrit term Dharma (Devanāgarī: धर्म) (Pali: Dhamma) signifies the underlying order in nature and life (human or other) considered to be in accord with that order. The word dharma is generally translated into English as 'law' and literally translates as 'that which upholds or supports' (from the root 'Dhr' - to hold), here referring to the order which makes the cosmos and the harmonious complexity of the natural world possible. As in the West, the concept of natural or divine law, has, throughout the history of Indian civilization, governed ideas about the proper conduct of living. The symbol of Dharma - the wheel. In its most frequent usage (in the sphere of morality and ethics) dharma means 'right way of living', 'proper conduct', 'duty' or 'righteousness'. With respect to spirituality, dharma might be considered the Way of the Higher Truths or what is considered to be 'right' or in truest accord with the deepest realities of nature. Beings that live in accordance with Dharma proceed more quickly toward Nirvana. Dharma constitutes the religious and moral doctrine of the rights and duties of each individual. Dharma in its
universal meaning shares much in common with the way of Tao.
The Wheel of Dharma Buddha used the symbol of the wheel to express the first day of his illumination, when he discovered the truth. Buddha referred to the Wheel of Life which he first saw and understood, and then set in motion the wheel of teaching, Dharma as it was called. To understand this symbology more fully, it is necessary to analyze another factor in the cosmology of Buddha and this is the notion of Nirvana. This basic character of the Samsara (the world) is that it consists of things which appear and disappear. The basic character of Nirvana is that it does not appear and does not disappear. In the Samsara there is continuous endless movement in circles, but in Nirvana there is no movement for it does not exist in time or space. For this reason, it was symbolized in the Wheel of Life by the central point of the wheel around which all things turn but which itself does not move. Everything else within the circumference of the wheel endlessly turns and turns, but the central point remains stationary. always the same. The main warning Buddha gave was not to base happiness on ephemeral things, which appear and disappear, as do the things of the Samsara, but to realize that happiness was located on the eternal, immovable central point of the Wheel of Life, the Nirvana, which never appears and never disappears but always is. When a woman/man starts to leave the circumference of the Wheel and to walk along the Noble Eightfold Path (eight spokes) toward the center, s/he will be less and less subject to the blind forces of Tanha (thirst, passions) in the Samsara; and s/he will gradually get nearer and nearer to her/his goal at the central point of the turning Wheel, the point which is no longer in the continual circle of ephemeral things, the circle of thirst and phenomena and suffering. (from p. 42 & 44 of "The Living Buddha" by Edmond Bordeauz Szekely)
The Ten Parts of the Wheel
The Self begins to walk the outer circumference of the wheel and, one at a time, encounters the eight spokes of the wheel. No one can walk the path for another, only the Self walks the path and begins to understand how to connect with the hub through each spoke of the Wheel. As "the Way of the Higher Truth" of the Eightfold Path is revealed to the Seeker of Truth. The Higher Self emerges within the Self and walks the circumference of the wheel with Right Understanding. With Right Understanding the eight spokes of the wheel are held together in perfect balance. The wheel turns steady and true. The Path of the outer circumference of the Wheel, the Eight Spokes of the Wheel and The Higher Self come into Right Relationship with Our One Creator and all beings and The Higher Self enters the Heart and Hub of the Wheel. The Ten Parts of the Wheel, (The Outer Rim- The Eight Spokes- the Hub) reveal the Tenfold Nature of Our Being.
The Tenfold Nature of Our Being
Each of the Ten Parts of the Wheel has a relationship with one of the Ten Parts of our Total Subtle Anatomy.
