5 Stars A little fishy?
Hmmm… I sometimes find the Amazon reviews for New Age/pop psychology/alternative medicine merchandise curiously skewed with 5 star reviews that seem artificially sent out by devotees of the author or practitioner. (And at times seen it the other way — organized attacks towards an author of an opposing point of view.)
I thought it odd that I was seeing many verbatim reviews by the same person scattered throughout many of the reviews for Murray’s various DVDs and books. I clicked on the “see all my reviews” of over two pages of (5 star) reviewers and very frequently they only reviewed this guy’s products and often pasted in the same comments for each DVD or book. Sorry, that stretches my credulity a bit too far.
I rarely see this kind of phenomena for other Amazon reviews. I’d certainly do my homework before buying into his very maverick approach (attunements by DVD). Not to say it couldn’t be genuine. I guess just a word of caution.
And no, I am not associated with any Reiki practitioner or tradition. Just a novice trying to chart my course.
5 Stars Great program!
I have nothing but great things to say about Steve Murray’s program. All his books are well-written, to the point, and very informative. I also agree that if you can send someone long-distance Reiki, it only follows that you could send someone a long-distance attunement. I was fortunate enough to be able to do both a Reiki 1 seminar in person, and Steve Murray’s Reiki 1 DVD attunement with his books. Both taught the same information about the history of Reiki, what Reiki is and isn’t, and how attunements are given. The only difference is that in the seminar we were shown how to give Reiki to self and others and had the opportunity to practice quite a few times. I think that if Steve Murray could make a DVD with a demonstration of giving a full Reiki session to self and to others, that would make his program complete in my opinion. However, you can purchase William Lee Rand’s `The Reiki Touch’ set and that comes with a DVD demonstration. There is not an attunement in that set because they are of the belief that attunements must be done in person. The in- person attunement and Steve Murray’s DVD attunement felt the same to me and I plan to do Reiki 2 and Master Reiki through Steve Murray. He also can send you a really beautiful certificate for each level you complete!
5 Stars Empowering!
Empowering!!
I am by nature open minded but cautious. I read Steve’s website top to bottom and was inspired by the truth as I read it. It resonated with something deep inside me. I was very drawn to his openness and perspectives on Reiki and decided that this was the right path to follow. I have not been disappointed at all!! Very congruent in all his writing and his mission statement.
His DVD’s and books empower you on whatever level you are interested in learning. He is a true teacher. You can read it, see it and feel the energy.
Thank you so much Steve for all your insightful information and for sharing all your knowledge with everyone in an affordable way. This was a smart investment for me. I am truly grateful and much more knowledgeable.
5 Stars THIS taught me that Reiki really DOES work.
I have studied Reiki with teachers in person and online for over 10 years. THIS DVD was the first time I found myself trusting in the process of energy passing from one moment to another for the sake of “attunement” or the like. There was something magickal about the idea that I had to trust in this process due to it being a DVD and not a human standing right next to me. Most humans charge an arm and a leg simply to stand there anyway - and not much can happen that way either. It’s true, not all people are going to have the same wonderful experience that I [and others] did. This is simply what Reiki is all about, each of us having a togetherness connection to the Reiki Energy source itself, while ALSO having our own experiences learning about how to harness and use it. This is what I’ve learned most from Steve; his books and DVD’s have opened my heart and mind like no other Reiki teacher I’ve worked with. I’m very happy I bought and took his courses.
5 Stars Great Book!
I was already a Reiki Master, and purchased Steve Murray’s, Reiki Ultimate Guide, Ultimate Guide Vol. 2, Vol. 3, and Vol. 4, along with the DVD attunements for each. The attunements were very powerful, and the energy flow is no doubt stronger. This program has to be the most convent, and realistic way to get started in the Reiki healing practice. I have tried several other Reiki programs in the past, and Steve Murrays Reiki Ultimate Guides, are the very best I have found yet. You will not be disappointed.
