Exploring the origins of Reiki, this book challenges the conventional narrative that credits Mikao Usui as its founder. Elizabeth Latham's work suggests that Tokio Yokoi may have been the true originator, prompting Jonker to investigate Yokoi's potential influence on Usui and various Reiki styles. He affirms that Yokoi's knowledge and impact are present in these narratives and hypothesizes about the relationship between Yokoi and Usui, proposing that misconceptions led to Yokoi's obscurity in the history of Reiki.
