A story worth knowing

There’s a story in the Jin Kei Do lineage that’s always stood out.

Seiji Takamori, a Japanese Buddhist monk, was given a meditation called Buddho as part of his training. The meditation totally blew him away and he wanted to know more about it and where it came from.

He was curious enough to spend the next 20 years travelling across Japan, through China, India, Nepal, and Tibet trying to understand where it came from and what sat behind it. What he eventually uncovered wasn’t just a technique, it was a full system of practice that included something most people overlook completely.

Transmission.

Not just learning something intellectually, but receiving something directly through the practice itself,backed up by energetic empowerments to that practice. An empowerment puts you inside the practice field, rather than standing outside and getting nowhere.

Why this is important

This idea of transmission sits quietly underneath a lot of what I do.

It’s there in Reiki attunements. It’s there in certain meditation systems. It’s there in The Abundant Self and in Buddho. And it’s often the difference between something feeling flat and something having real depth to it.

It’s also something I’ve been working with more directly over the past few years.

I’ve created energetic empowerments for clients in video format, and the results have been very strong. People are experiencing real shifts just from engaging with those recordings.

Which led me to a simple question.

Can this work in audio?

That’s what I’m exploring this week.

I’ve created a free audio meditation for you. On the surface, it’s a Yoga Nidra style practice. Underneath that, there’s an energetic transmission embedded into the recording.

This is very much an experiment and maybe it won’t work. But if it does, I’d love to hear what happened for you!

I know how well this works in video. What I don’t yet know is how effectively it carries through audio when it’s layered into a meditation like this. You won’t hear anything of the empowerment. That track has been silenced. You will hear the meditation, but I’m hoping the energetic quality of the empowerment will still carry through.

So the only thing that matters is your experience.

Give it a listen and notice what happens. Then tell me all about it. If nothing happens tell me anyway as I have some other ideas that might work if this one doesn’t!

Here’s the audio file. Try it out:

If you want the deeper context

I’ve also written a new article that explains the system this all sits within:

It gives you a clear picture of what Buddho is, how it’s practised, and why systems like this were always designed to go beyond just technique.

Join the Abundant Mind community

If you want more of this kind of work, come and join the Abundant Mind Facebook group. That’s where I share more insights, practices, and ongoing conversations around everything I teach. And I’ll be dropping more of these audio recordings into that group when I can as the experiment with the audio meditations goes on.

“I recently completed the Level 2 Reiki class with Steve, and it was an incredibly valuable experience that was worth every penny. I learned so much about the power of Reiki and how to integrate it as a tool in my life. Since the class, I’ve felt a deeper connection to God, my heart, and an increase in compassion for all beings.

Steve presents Reiki in a beautifully insightful way, debunking many myths that are commonly found online. If you're looking to learn more about Reiki, improve your life, and achieve your goals, I wholeheartedly recommend training with Steve. He is by far the best teacher I’ve worked with.”
