Seichim
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Seichim is claimed to be an ancient and sacred form of hands on healing that originates from Egypt or perhaps earlier. Practitioners claim that it is the "the Parent Energy" of all healing systems based around the laying on of hands.

[edit] History
Patrick Ziegler, an American Reiki master, prayed for guidance in the early 1980s similar to how Mikao Usui (the founder of Reiki) did and claimed to have received revelation of Seichim as a result.
Ziegler said that later a friend channelled an entity called "Marat", an old Seichim Teacher from southern India, who informed him of the history of Seichim, which in turn had been handed down from ancient times by a direct line of teachers.
Marat told him that Seichim was translated and transcribed from hieroglyphs by the ancient Shin Yon Buddhists, and was taken from Egypt to India and Japan.
[edit] Beliefs of Seichim Practitioners
Practitioners believe that Seichim is the energy of the universe manifested through the feminine vibration of the Mother Goddess, which they say is that known by the Buddhists as Kuan Yin and by the Egyptians as Sekhmet. The Egyptians considered Sekhmet to be the Mother of the Gods, known as "The Great One of Healing". Her mage-priests were the greatest of all healers and her son, Nefertem, was the God of Physicians.
In Egyptian, however, the term "Sekhem" means "tower" or "might", which are more stereotypically masculine characteristics. This symbolises, they say, that Seichim incorporates both yin and yang, or "perfect balance" and this balance is the key to progress and enlightenment.
Seichim practitioners believe that it balances and realigns the yin (or female), physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually and is therefore therapeutic for female health problems such as infertility, hormonal imbalances, PMT and menstrual or menopausal problems. They say that it also re-adjusts imbalances deeper down in the psyche such as lack of self-esteem, the need for/lack of nurturing and especially self-empowerment and love.
Like many other practices, it is claimed that Seichim is "the only path to true enlightenment and spiritual unfoldment".
