ABOUT ME

I was born on August 24, 1960 at 9:20 am in Duesseldorf, Germany.

With eighteen I went to India to live in the spiritual Commune/Ashram of Osho Rajneesh for several years. This is where I received my training in meditation and the art of living in the present.

Later on life took me to the USA, where I spent six years doing a thousand and one things. After America I found myself in Japan for twelve years. During my stay in Japan- in 1992- I embarked on the Reiki - Journey. From 1997, after the publication of my first book- I began to travel extenxsively all over the globe teaching Reiki.

in 1998 I began to study Family Constellations under the guidance of Bert Hellinger.

In 2002 I moved back to Duesseldorf, my hometown in Germany where I lived with Bhakti, the love of my life for seven years.

In 2009 we moved to beautiful Lesvos Island in Greece, with our two kids, Christina Amrita and Alexis Mudito. I still travel quite a bit, and while I am not teaching you may find me giving treatments in our Dojo in Eressos, or having a cup of tea in our small olive plantation or working on another book.

Requirements for further Training

We require everyone to begin with Shoden, regardless of their previous Reiki Training, except for those who have taken Jikiden Reiki Classes previously. This is not out of disrespect, but because the teaching is very different from other schools, and we would like every one of our Reiki students to have the same basic knowledge.

Repeaters: For repeaters the Training fee is Euro 250,-

Shihan Kaku Training

To become a Shihan Kaku, it is required to document at least 150 hours of treatments on at least 25 different clients after at least twelve month of the initial training. Then the Shoden and Okuden class must be reviewed once (for one third of the original course fee, Euro 250,-), before one can take the Shihan Kaku Training. 

The Shihan Kaku Training is Euro 1250,- plus the repeat fee for Shoden/Okuden of Euro 250,-

Shihan Training

I will think about the requirements for becoming a Shihan in the next few months, and will let you know. Thank you for your patience…

Before the Shihan Training you have to repeat Shoden and Okuden one more time for the repeat fee of Euro 250,-. 

The Shihan Training is Euro 1250,-

In Arjava’s new lineage, the Shihan Training can only be taught by Frank Arjava Petter for now. Let’s see how it develops….

Thank you, friends!

Japanese Reiki Techniques

An introductory evening with Frank Arjava Petter, author of “Reiki Fire”,“Reiki, the Legacy of Dr. Usui” , "The original Reiki Handbook of Dr. Mikao Usui" and co- author of “The Spirit of Reiki” in collaboration with William Lee Rand and Walter Lübeck, “Reiki Best Practices” with Walter Lübeck, “The Hayashi Reiki Manual” with Tadao Yamaguchi, “Reiki Ganz Klar”, “This is Reiki” and “One with Reiki”.

Years of research into the true history of Reiki have revealed a completely new vision of Dr. Usui and the Reiki movement he gave birth to in Japan.

Arjava lived and worked in Japan for twelve years. He now lives on Lesvos Island in Greece with his family. He teaches Reiki, meditation and Family Constellations worldwide. 

Arjava takes us on a fascinating journey to the original Reiki sites in Japan- from the Kurama temple in Kyoto where Usui Sensei encountered Reiki for the first time, to his grave and public memorial in Tokyo.

*A multi media show of the Reiki sites in Japan.

* A talk on Japanese culture

* A talk on Japanese Reiki history and historical facts of Usui Sensei's life and                 work.

* Questions and answers.
