I was inspired by Emoto's rice experiments and decided to try my own Reiki version! Two identical glass jars were sterilized by boiling water. I then put 2 tablespoons of cooked rice from the same batch into each pot and created one control, which was left alone for the entire time, and one 'Reiki' pot which received a 1 minute blast of Reiki every other day. Here are the results, pretty interesting right?!
As with all experiments, it is not easy to judge or decipher the outcome. Why did white mold begin growing in the Reiki jar and not the Control? How did the Reiki jar remain so white and fluffy? I don't know what it means, I only know that in an experiment we are looking for significant differences in outcome. My only hypothesis is that Reiki makes a difference, and I think we can see that it does. Its not a belief system or in our imagination - we can actually try it for ourselves with experiments like these. Very groovy!
In the beginning: 2 identical samples
After 1 week: some browning on the control, Reiki jar looks fresh and some white mold beginning to grow
After 2.5 weeks: Control continues to brown, Reiki jar grows white mold prolifically
After 4 weeks: a significant difference! Control rice is all brown with white spotting, Reiki is all white with a proliferation of white fluffy mold. I didn't open the jar to smell it, but the difference was very clear.
If you decide to copy this experiment, please post your photos here too!

Love this....quite amazing...

Let me introduce myself in a few words. I am 30, female. I had my first reiki session a month ago, with a colleague/friend who is a student in that field. I always had chronic ovarian cyst, and was proposed to have the THIRD operation within 4 years.
Ovarian cysts are nothing dangerous. It just won’t allow you having kids, as “easily” as women without cysts.
And as I said I had that first session, 15 mins in average. After that my period just didn’t come, because I am pregnant. The embryo must have a month now. I am doing great!
Well, what I think, as a layperson, is following that following ingredients played a role
- Law of attraction ( 30%) with
- Good alimentation, stopped smocking, reduced alcohol (was not addicted though) - (30%)
- reiki (30%)
- yeah..the rest , dunno (10%)
I am pregnant. I mean, the last 5 / 10 years, nothing happened, and now within a month…I am leaving and planning a totally different life..
Excuse me, if I am revealing much more then you would like to know, but I had dreamed after the 15 min session (on 3 different nights):
- I dreamed that I had showed my reiky-colleague some childhood pictures
- dreamed that I had to cross a river and couldn’t find the bridge
- dreamed that I was in that river, a boot came I sink, thought I was drowning, but then came back out of the water. In front of me, in the water was a lady and her child.
Some points now make sense, some don’t really yet. Thus I find it interesting.
I wanted to contact you because I found your experiment to be very interesting - it just explain that something is happening with reiky, and that something might energy. But why is that great message not offered to anyone who needs it?
