| 520 | |a The belief in non-physical beings playing crucial roles in illness and healing is widespread across diverse cultures. Our previous study found reports of alleged non-physical beings during energy medicine sessions. To evaluate the perceived presence and characteristics of non-physical beings mentioned during Reiki sessions. Six seers observed 40 Reiki sessions, and quantitative and qualitative data were collected from the seers, participants, and Reiki practitioners. The presence and function of the non-physical beings during the sessions and the correspondence between quantitative and qualitative data types were evaluated. All sessions had reports of alleged non-physical beings, with angelic beings, spirit guides, and possession/spirit attachments most commonly noted. The reported entities mainly aided the healing process, but some were also linked to pathology. While this study did not explore the effectiveness of treatment, the findings do highlight the potential importance of ostensible non-physical entities in Reiki, warranting further investigation. | ||
