Frank Arjava Petter

Reiki Teacher, Vice Representative of the Jikiden Reiki Institute, Kyoto

Frank Arjava Petter is an international Reiki Teacher, the Vice Representative of the Jikiden Reiki Institute, Kyoto, and the best-selling author of several books, including, “Reiki Fire”, “Reiki, the Legacy of Dr. Usui”, “The Original Reiki Handbook of Dr. Mikao Usui”, co-author of “The Spirit of Reiki”, “Reiki Best Practices”, “The Hayashi Reiki- Manual”, “Glücklichsein”, “Reiki ganz Klar”, “This is Reiki”, “One with Reiki” and “…is…”.

When Arjava was eighteen, he went to India to live in the spiritual Commune/Ashram of Osho Rajneesh for several years. This is where he received his training in meditation and the art of living in the present. Later on life, he moved to the USA, where he spent six years doing a thousand and one things. After America, Arjava found himself in Japan for twelve years. During his stay in Japan, in 1992, he embarked on the Reiki Journey. From 1997, after the publication of his first book, he began to travel extensively all over the globe teaching Reiki.

Arjava is committed to sharing his research into Japanese Reiki history and practice, as well as new and old ways to expand your heart/mind and Reiki practice. He believes that Reiki, as conceived and taught by Usui Sensei in the early 1920’s, is ultimately a path of enlightened action. Arjava encourages us to always remember that body, heart, mind, soul and Universe are One – “All it takes is for you to realize the obvious and be free. In every moment, life gives you another chance to realize your potential. Say yes…”
