Distant Reiki at The Last Supper

My friend Sue is a flight attendant. She recently invited me to take a trip to Italy with her. There we were, on Sunday, January 18th, flying to Milan. First class no less. Did I mention she's a really good friend? She was working the trip and I, well all I had to do was sit back and enjoy the ride.

Prior to leaving I purchased tickets to see The Last Supper for Tuesday morning, January 20th at 8:30am. When I ordered the tickets, reservations are strongly suggested, no matter the time of year, I had no idea what to expect. We've all seen photos of The Last Supper numerous times and sometimes, when we've seen things over and over again, they somehow lose their sense of greatness when you see them in real life. I think our expectations become so inflated that when we finally see that which was spoken about and viewed in photographs, movies and on TV so often, we feel a bit let down and a sense of disappointment sets in.

I thought about the many people I know: clients and friends, who I have sent distant Reiki in the past. I jotted down a few names and thought it might be interesting to invoke Reiki and send it distantly while standing before The Last Supper. I told Sue my plan and said I thought it could be pretty intense. She agreed and said she thought it was a wonderful idea.

We journeyed from our hotel to the metro, got off at the appropriate stop and walked in the very cold, raw, rainy weather to the Santa Maria delle Grazie church where we waited to be allowed entry. We were told to wait in a hallway, then led into an enclosed room where the doors behind us were closed once everyone was inside and then, and only then, were the doors to the room containing The Last Supper, opened.

Immediately upon entering the room, I could feel the energy. It was incredibly strong. I walked to the mural on the wall and stood in awe of it's beauty and the energy I could feel emanating from the painting. At first, I couldn't even think, I was too overwhelmed and taken aback. There was no disappointment here at all. This wall remained standing through all of the bombing during World War II when others around it were blasted to rubble. The energy in that room hit me like the scorching heat of a summers day after coming out of a very cold air conditioned store.

You are only allowed 15 minutes in the room. After a few moments I began to invoke Reiki and started sending it off to those on my list. Less than 10 minutes later I completed the task I set out to do. I walked across to Giovanni Donato Montorfano's Crucifixion on the opposite wall where Sue was standing and I looked at that mural as well. Another very awesome sight. The energy from The Last Supper painting was not lessening. I turned to look at it again and asked Sue if she had any requests. Without missing a beat, she spoke up. She told me later that she didn't want to ask for anything for herself (actually, it was not for herself) because she knew I had a list and didn't want to take away from that but when I mentioned it, she was prepared and happy to provide the information I needed to send the distant Reiki where she wanted it to go.

This was a most profound experience for me. I have sent distant Reiki too many times to count and I know how fortunate I am to have had this opportunity. It was much more than I thought it would be and as it turned out, for those on my list, they are all faring quite well.

No, I don't always tell people when I've sent Reiki to them. But I do, eventually, find out if what I have done has had an effect. That day in Milan, it surely did.
