Why is lineage important

Why is lineage important in learning Reiki?

There are many different types of energies, and energy work. A lineage shows the chain of reiki masters who passed reiki attunement down from Mikao Usui to you. Since Usui formulated the Reiki system of healing, knowing that your Reiki lineage originates with him assures you that the energy you are being attuned to channel is Reiki energy, and no other.
