EnerSense or Buddho System
of Healing is a complete health
promoting system combining ancient Tibetan and Indian healing
methods. From a purely physical aspect, this method enhances the
natural ability of the body's capacity to heal, prevents
susceptibility to disease, and promotes health in general. This
ancient system of healing uses special meditative techniques,
breathing methods, and meditative exercises (Chi-Nadi) to develop
awareness to subtle energy (Chi). From a mental aspect, this
practice develops a calm mind with the powerful penetrative
ability to see the mental processes and physical energetic
processes that occur continually in our mind-body system. This
method has its origins in ancient Tibet. The original name of the
method is BUDDHO. It is called EnerSense to provide a neutral meaning
and to signify that it is not a religion. It is more like a
philosophy and a way of life. People of any religious belief can
practice this method. The word EnerSense is made of the words
Energy and
Sensation
and Sense. The
Buddho or EnerSense System of Healing was
practiced in ancient Tibet by a special sect of Buddhist monks.
The secret knowledge was transmitted only to monks who were
totally devoted to healing. The main objective of the method was
to develop the mind with the final goal being enlightenment. The
exercises and self-healing aspects were secondary but had
significance. The main function being keeping the physical body
in good condition in order to do long hours of meditation without
undue fatigue. The meditative exercises and breathing techniques
activated the chakras and nadis. This, in turn, benefited the
attainment of deeper meditative states or Samadhi. The
meditations involved mantras, yantras, and symbols, and the
exercises energized the chakras and nadis, as well as bringing
deeper awareness of the body. The Chi-Nadi exercises are slow
relaxed movements combined with powerful tension and relaxation
of the body during movement. The physical exercises are like T'ai
Chi, but also include dynamic tension of muscles to direct Chi to
various parts of the body. The set of basic exercises increases
strength, flexibility, and tones the body. While the meditation
develops concentration, tranquility, and energy, the exercises
activate the nadis and chakras, develop strength, flexibility,
and deeper awareness to the subtle energy flow in the body while
in a light meditative state. Energy produced by meditation is
used to increase the natural healing process of the body. The
meditation develops a deep awareness of the subtle energy system
(Chakras and Nadi-channels) of the body and enables the transfer
of energy to re-energize and promote health. The complete system
takes a holistic approach, and with regular practice, one can
strengthen the respiratory, cardiovascular, and immune systems.
There are significant and sufficient direct links between the
Buddho System of Healing and Reiki to state that Reiki is a
subsequent simplification of the Buddho System of Healing as a
practical self-healing technique which lay people could practice.
EnerSense was introduced for the first time to the Western world
by Seiji Takamori and was made more widely available by Dr. Ranga
J. Premaratna, Ph.D. He received the complete training during
Takamori's stay in the USA in 1990. He is the only teacher fully
empowered by Seiji Takamori to teach all four stages of the
EnerSense system. Seiji made his transition in his eighties at a
Buddhist monastery in 1992. Today, many Reiki masters and
practitioners learn EnerSense as another system of healing, as
well as to better understand the origin and mechanisms of Reiki
healing.
