One scene that particularly struck me was the moment when Christ healed a small boy in the village who had consumed poisoned food. The little boy was told to close his eyes, after which Christ touched his chest and said, “You are alright, feel.” The next moment, the child got up and figured that he was perfectly all right.

A similar kind of reference is even found in Indian Mythology, regarding Sai Baba. At many occasions in his life, the saint also practiced a similar kind of healing, miraculously healing even those who were near death.

So did holy figures like Christ and Sai Baba know Reiki? Is this the form of healing and blessing they used to practice? Reiki masters have no dominant evidences to it, but reckon that the conjecture might be true.
