Kuji-In is an ancient ritual
meditation process used today by martial artists,
holistic healers, spiritual seekers, and anyone
looking for greater awareness and concentration.
It makes us available to the development of body,
mind and spirit. It enhances the nervous system,
endocrine system, energy channels of the body,
quickness of body and mind, and opens the doors
on great spiritual depth. Kuji-in practice involves
a combination of the following tools to focus
attention:
- Mudra—a hand gesture
or position that brings into effect the flow
of energies that start or terminate at the
fingertips
- Mantra—a sound, which
can take the form of either a short word or
a more complex prayer.
- Focus point—here we
focus on the chakras (a Sanskrit word meaning
“constantly turning”), the energy
gates of the body
- Mandala—an image that
is visualized in order to engage the mind
in active participation with an energy work
or spiritual process.
- Philosophical concept
Most students (including myself)
are first exposed to kuji-in through their training
or interest in the martial arts—about
the supernatural martial powers that could be
theirs after much time spent with the meditation.
Some of these students just know somehow that
there is so much more to Kuji-in, something
deeply spiritual. And so you found this on-line
temple, ready to begin using this mystical ritual
technique as a tool of self transformation and
revelation.
But the martial powers, as well
as enhanced holistic healing powers, will naturally
rise up in you anyway, as a side effect of the
spiritual evolution.
Sincere and continued practice
contemplating higher philosophy will eventually
turn human beings into supernatural beings.
It will call from within the power of our Spirit
so it can project itself outwardly in our physical
experience, allowing us to manifest supernatural
events and develop new perceptive abilities.
