                                                         The Founder of UHF
                                      I have had the gift all my life. We all have, but
                                                                                 just as in me, the gift lies dormant in most people
                                                                                 until that divine spark ignites. Call it love, call it
                                                                                 chance, call it folly, but what ever you call it, It
                                                                                 ignited such inspired enlightenment that I find it
                                                                                 difficult to contain all its beauty, love and strength.
                                                                                   Through some unusual circumstances, I met
                                                                                my sensei and was attuned to first level through
                                                                                distance. My Master lived in Italy and I in California. Some time later I visited her for a few weeks and received my hands on attunement and received the symbols.

    It�s amazing, I thought of Reiki as an hoax and just a way for some people to get attention and others to stake their small claim to fortune and a place in someone�s history.
I could never have been more wrong about anything.
I wish to thank my Reiki Master Chiara Guarascio IRM. Through her Love, Light and Spirit, I was attuned, and now I wish to share this Universal Healing Force she shared it with me.

The word that should stand out in all this is, or should be SHARE. As I mentioned earlier, we all have the ability to channel the Universal Energy and use it to heal the mind, body, and spirit.Keep in mind that we are not the healers, we are just a vessel to deliver or channel the energy to the person, situation occasion or whatever needs healing. The energy is Intelligent Energy from a Superior Universal Spring, that once delivered, will find it�s way to where ever it is needed.

As you can probably tell I am an Ordained Minister with the Universal Life Church, but one must not confuse Reiki with some religion nor a political action, or a status symbol. Anyone can use Reiki for the benefit of oneself and others, no mater what their status or social standing.

I was born in a little town in Italy and in 1958 came to America with my parents in search of the American dream. I have been in Thailand, Japan, Vietnam, Cambodia, and studied under great Masters. I have studied Tao, Shinto, Buddhism, Christianity, (At one time I was going to become a Catholic Priest) but settled down to the Old Religion. It took An Italian Reiki Master to enlighten me into what I now feel to be the greatest Force in the Universe, Reiki. I can�t emphasize enough how out of sorts I was. I couldn�t find anything that would satisfy the hunger that was eating at me.
   Once I was attuned to first level, I began to feel the difference Reiki was making in me. I began to forgive� First Myself� Then situations� Then I realized that there was no need to say �I AM SORRY.�
"Forgiveness is a present one gives to oneself." The realization that no matter what you do the Universe will go on as it should without a doubt, finally took hold and I began on my path to wholeness.

   "Someone who studies hard and works assiduously to improve body and mind for the sake of becoming a better person is called 'a man of Great Spirit'. People who use that Great Spirit for a social purpose, that is, to teach the right way to many people and do collective good, are called 'teachers'.
Dr. Usui was one such teacher. He taught the Reiki of the Universe. Countless people asked him to teach them the great way of Reiki and to heal them." (Taken from the memorial to Usui's virtue. Saihoji Temple, Tokyo)

I wish to be that teacher to you.� There is a specific reason for the want to be a teacher� and mine is that I learn more as a teacher, so that I may teach more effectively and in turn you may learn more as my student, and perhaps someday you may teach and learn also.

On April 22nd In the year 2002 I received my Master attunement for the Tibetan Reiki tradition. I wish to thank my former student and now my tibetan sensei Marcia Mortensson for her love, light and wisdom, and for becoming greater than she was as we continue on the path we call Reiki.
