Introduction to PranaTantra-Reiki ® Trainings by Audrey Pearson

The principles of the tantras, involve mantras, meditation, yoga, and ritual. Tan.trism is a mystical philosophy, dating from the 6th to the 13th centuries. Tan.trism teaches of the changing, visible world as the creative dance or play of the Divine Mother. Enlightenment in this tradition is regarded as the realization of the essential oneness of one’s self and of the visible world, with the Godhead held within the natural polarities of life, for example Shiva and Shakti. 

Examples of Tan.trism teachings are also found in the Budhist tradition. We see this influence in the Practice of Reiki. The polarity held with consciousness and life energy.

To live a life of acceptance of all that is as is, is to practice prana tantra.  The practice requires doing nothing while being present with everything, in acceptance of all that is, as is, a state of surrender to the innate divinity. The state of surrender is one of choiceless awareness. It is a state of acceptance of all that is, as is.

All human beings are endowed with an innate divinity. That divinity is accessed by being unconditionally present with all that is as.  The manifest Presence is revealed only when we are unconditionally present.

Presence is the divine core of our being present. You can either accept reality as it presents or you can choose to deny it.

Audrey & James Pearson teach a program called PranaTantra-Reiki® dedicated to the practice of Prana Tantra
through the Reiki Methodology without trading the Usui method. This training revolutionizes what we currently
know to be Reiki. It infuses each level of Reiki training with the ancient sacred knowledge from the great
mystics who understood the relationship between Consciousness and Life Force energy, shiva and Shakti.

 The following is an except from Audrey's writings 2009 on "Understanding PranaTantra" 

Reiki is a tantric practice whereby you discover the power within you. There is no social conditioning or personal and cultural standards of good or bad when you practice tantra. Tantra is where you accept all realities as they are. 

For most of our life, we resisted the reality in front of us, choosing instead behaviors that served to protect our reactionary self images. We all have two operating manifestations, psychological and biological, and both are in perpetual conflict. The psychological is the pleasure seeking zone, this is where we become victims of pain, emotional hurt, fear and control issues. The biological is in harmony with the polarity of pleasure and pain and is therefore in a healthy state of body harmony. The psychological is spirit manifesting externally, and while it is important as a vehicle to discover the presence of the divine within, it says “I want more” and it drives us to stress demands and addictions to seeking pleasure. Examples of this are addiction to seeking pleasure through sex, food, drugs, etc.  

Addictions capture vital life force and we become consumed by unconscious forces where nothing is ever ‘good enough’. Survival of the self image then takes over your prana and you depend on your ego’s past pre-programming and reactions to cultural standards and conditioning to maintain your egoic self image. This is the underlying cause of all disease.   

When we arrive at the knowing that protecting a false self no longer provides the relaxation we seek, we are ready to enter the PranaTantra state of being Reiki.
An enlightened state of being where the enlightened person is the Master/Mistress of her/his own destiny.
