Sacred Mantra: Just For Today
In the journey of self-discovery and spiritual growth,
The teachings of Mikao Usui stand as guiding lights, illuminating the path towards inner peace and harmony. Among his many profound teachings, one simple yet powerful principle stands out: “Just for Today“
In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives,
It’s easy to get caught up in worries about the future or regrets about the past.
However, Usui’s teaching encourages us to shift our focus to the present moment, embracing mindfulness and living each day with intention and gratitude.
From Usui’s Handbook for Reiki Student
Western Version of Usui’s Principles
Just for Today…
Time is a psychic experience created by people.
It is not something that is “out there” in nature.
Rather, it is an illusion and it the human mind that addresses it,
Or,
The purpose of ordering events (one after the other) in physical reality…
The only time that truly exists is the moment of Now, the present moment.
Everything happens in the Now, at this single moment, yet the brain can only conceive things that happen one after the other.
Hence, the concept of time – past, present, future – was invented.
The importance of “today” applicable for all five principles.
How you live today determines whether or not you will complete the necessary learning.
Today, is a collection of moments.
This teaches us to fully live each and every moment and this whole day.
We say “Just for today” because only Now and only Today truly exist.
