Non-Reiki Symbols

This batch of symbols I've taken from

Diane Stein's Essential Reiki. She says
that "while I do not consider these to be
Reiki symbols, some of them bear
discussion. Om is a Sanskrit symbol,
representing the sound that created the
Universe. Several other Sanskrit symbols
are pictured, all with healing energy. The
Palm Master symbol represents the
passage of energy through the chakras
and Sushumna, and may be an initiation
form. Tantric Buddist statuary shows
many similar symbols carved into the
palms of the hands of the Buddhas. . . ."
She also goes into a further discussion of
some symbols called Bijas and their uses,
meanings, and areas in which you find
them drawn. She sights as her source for
much of this information Pierre
Rambach's The Secret Message of Tantric
Buddhism (Rizzoli International
Publications, 1979).

It should also be noted that the three

spirals of the Palm Master Symbol are
identified as (top to bottom): third eye,
heart, pelvis.

I offer these symbols and information here as

something interesting to note. And for 'further
reference' of additional symbols and their
usage. Enjoy!
