Spiritual Growth & Ascension

I am delighted to welcome everyone to this Sacred Website - City Of Shamballa, where we help each other with our spiritual growth, upliftment, & healing by giving each other loving support and by sharing meditations, spiritual practices, Reiki, and healings.
 
And you are also welcome to share any blockages or problems in your spiritual journey, for we may be able to help you and extend Divine Love & Light, Healing, and Wisdom on what you are experiencing.
 
We are all divinely connected to one another, for God's Presence resides within every human being.
 
And all awakened souls are helping manifest our 5th dimensional world by continuing to unfold and embody our own Divine Presence through our spiritual practices and the Divine Healings we all need.
 
So sharing our visions of the new 5th dimensional world we are all creating...and sharing our experiences and spiritual practices that are helping us in our own spiritual journey and healing are important in our website.
 
My vision is to create a world where everyone is living in peace and joy and abundance with all of humanity having realized and embodied their Divine Self.
 
So everyone - feel free to share your Divine Love, Light, Healing Energies,  & Wisdom here with posts that help uplift us all, or in any way your Divine Heart guides you to share with us.
 
I extend to All of You Mother/Father/God's Supreme Blessings Divinely Perfect for each of you for your life, for your healing, and for your spiritual growth.

I studied much about symbols and numerology before learning anything about Reiki. Since having learned more about Reiki and attuning to many healing energies/modalities I have noticed that many people recommend repetitions of three for lots of practices; i.e. saying "cho-ku-rey" three times, or reading something three times to activate it, or even concluding prayers and affirmations with "thank you, thank you, thank you".

While I find myself drawn to do this, sometimes when not even instructed to, I cannot help but wonder why. Can anybody help me to understand what is the benefit or purpose behind the threes? If it is just to let something sink in more to my subconscious more then why not say it four or seven or nine times? If there is some symbolic connection or boon that you get out of repeating three times, I cannot help but think that would be stronger if I am doing this in full consciousness rather than blindly following a recommended ritual.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Namaste

  • As far as I remember when I received my firts Reiki Initiation, my Teacher tough me the first call of the mantra (in the case of repeating a mantra 3 times), we connect with our physical.

    The second repetition of the mantra connects us with our emotional/ mental bodies.

    And the third and last, with our spiritual being.

    That's what I remember. Hope it can help. 

    Much Love and Light!

  • hello Julian, well i can tell you that not only three is used. In seikim for example some symbols have different type of amplifying. They can be amplified to the power of 3, 7 or 9. The amplification is done by drawing more elements of the same kind to the simbol not by saying the name of the symbol multiple times. 

    Blessings

    • Thank you sir. I should look into another Seikim system.

      I tried Ka Shen Sekhem (by try I mean attuned to the first level) and liked it very much. My favorite symbol from that system was Len So Mi. I am not sure if that is how it is spelled, but I like its energy.

      It also occurred to me today that Len So Mi, Cho Ku Rei, and Sei He Ki are all three sets of syllables separated (or sometimes hyphenated). 

      I believe all numbers are divine as they are facets,or lenses, through which we can form our experience of creation. I am just trying to find more meaning in the ritual practice to increase my capacity for internal/external resonance.

      Thanks again for the info!

      Namaste

      P.S. Are the SEI in 'SEIkim' and 'SEI he ki' related? Have a great weekend!
