Energy of the Bodhisattvas Attunement Certification Training with Manual

Energy of the Bodhisattvas Attunement: Online Certification Course and Manual

The Energy of the Bodhisattvas Attunement is a heart-centered spiritual energy system that aligns you with the compassionate energy of the Mahayana bodhisattvas, the awakened beings who devote themselves to the benefit of all life. Prismatic Reiki Academy offers it as a self-paced certification course that you begin online and study from a downloadable manual, with the attunement received at a distance wherever you live. At the center of the system is bodhichitta, the awakening mind, and its root aspiration to attain awakening for the sake of all sentient beings. The course is intended to support a gentle, open-hearted intention to be of service, in both personal practice and sessions shared with consenting others.

The course is taught in the lineage of Jean, also known as Gina, Myrner, who recorded the Energy of the Bodhisattvas material in 2009. Rev. Michael Allison, a certified energy practitioner, carries the attunement forward in the same spirit it was given and sets it in a clear format for online study. Neither Michael nor the Academy claims to have originated the Energy of the Bodhisattvas, and it is offered with gratitude toward the Buddhist teachers and the compassionate ideal it carries. The manual itself warmly recommends finding a teacher of the Dharma for deeper study, and the Academy echoes that respect for the living tradition.

How the Energy of the Bodhisattvas Is Understood to Work

In the tradition, a bodhisattva is a being of deep compassion who seeks awakening not for personal escape but chiefly for the sake of freeing and helping all other beings. A well-loved teaching story describes three travelers crossing a desert who come upon a high wall. The first two climb up, glimpse a lush garden of water and fruit and shade, and leap inside. The third also sees the garden, but climbs back down into the desert to seek out other wanderers and guide them to the water. The third traveler is the bodhisattva, the one whose first thought is for others.

The heart of this path is bodhichitta, the awakening mind, expressed in the Mahayana aspiration to attain awakening for the benefit of all sentient beings. The tradition pictures ordinary life as a house on fire that its occupants have not yet noticed, and the bodhisattva as the one who resolves to help everyone to safety. It describes three styles of this resolve, often called the king-like bodhisattva who seeks awakening first in order to help, the boatman-like who crosses together with others, and the shepherd-like who would see everyone across before themselves. A bodhisattva is also said to progress through ten grounds, or bhumis, beginning with Great Joy and its emphasis on generosity, followed by stages that cultivate moral discipline, patience, vigor, concentration, and wisdom.

Much of the everyday practice is gathered in the Thirty-Seven Practices of Bodhisattvas, a set of verses written in the fourteenth century by the Tibetan monk Ngulchu Thogme. Those verses encourage generosity without hope of return, patience toward those who cause harm, honest self-examination, kindness even to difficult people, and a steady question to carry through the day, "What is the state of my mind?" These are spiritual and contemplative teachings, offered for reflection and practice. They describe a tradition of compassion and are not medical statements, and the course presents the attunement as supportive spiritual energy work rather than any form of care.

The verses range widely in their counsel. They encourage giving generously without hope of return, exchanging your own comfort for the burdens of others, meeting slander with a loving word, and treating difficult circumstances as passing rather than solid. Alongside them the tradition honors many named bodhisattvas, among them Chenrezig, known across Asia as the bodhisattva of compassion and the listener to the cries of the world. A short vow captures the whole spirit, a wish to help countless beings cross the ocean of existence and to end their suffering, carried not only through this life but into each one that follows.

Who the Bodhisattva Attunement Suits

The Energy of the Bodhisattvas Attunement suits anyone drawn to compassion as a practice rather than only an ideal. The tradition notes that Buddhists may take the bodhisattva vows to begin their path, and that people of other faiths, or none, may also feel called to cultivate the ways of the bodhisattva. This course honors that openness. You do not need to be Buddhist to be moved by the wish to help others and to carry that wish into your energy work.

The course is open to complete beginners as well as to experienced practitioners who wish to add a compassion-centered attunement to their practice. No prior level is required to enroll, and the manual introduces each idea gently for a first-time reader. Practitioners who already work with heart-centered systems often find the bodhisattva energy a meaningful deepening of that focus.

Carrying the Bodhisattva Intention Into Daily Practice

Once your attunement is complete and you have studied the manual, you may work with the Energy of the Bodhisattvas whenever you wish, bringing its compassionate intention into meditation, quiet reflection, and daily life. Many practitioners use the Thirty-Seven Practices as gentle prompts, pausing to ask what state their mind is in, choosing patience over reaction, and dedicating the good of their practice to the benefit of others. The aim is not strain but a settled heart and an honest wish to be of help. Some practitioners find it steadying to picture which of the three styles of resolve fits the day in front of them, whether to strengthen themselves first so they can help, to walk beside others as they go, or simply to put others ahead of themselves.

You may share gentle sessions with consenting adults, holding a warm and compassionate intention as you send the energy. As a certified holder of this lineage, you may also pass the attunement to your own future students if you choose to teach, using a clear method and a sincere heart in the same spirit the tradition describes. The Academy asks every practitioner to describe the work honestly as supportive spiritual energy, to obtain consent, and to encourage anyone with a health concern to speak with a qualified medical professional.

Your Bodhisattva Course and How the Attunement Reaches You

Your enrollment is a complete distance course, not a single download. The manual introduces the bodhisattva ideal, the Mahayana understanding of compassion, the teaching story of the garden, the ten grounds, and the themes of the Thirty-Seven Practices. The tradition is unhurried, so the manual suggests becoming acquainted with the wisdom of the bodhisattvas before receiving the energy. A certified practitioner then sends the attunement to you remotely at an agreed time. You find a peaceful spot, meditate quietly if you wish, and when you feel ready you hold a sincere intention to receive the attunement and offer a few words of thanks. A personalized certificate and ongoing email support complete the course.

Questions Bodhisattva Students Ask

Do I need to be Buddhist to take this course? No. The tradition welcomes both those who take the bodhisattva vows as part of their Buddhist practice and those of other paths who feel drawn to cultivate compassion. The course honors that openness and asks only for a sincere heart.

What are the Thirty-Seven Practices mentioned in the manual? They are a set of verses by the fourteenth-century Tibetan monk Ngulchu Thogme that describe the everyday conduct of a bodhisattva, from generosity and patience to honest self-reflection. The manual shares their themes as gentle guidance for your own practice.
