49. Ethics of Exceptions
Arjava tackles absentee Reiki ethics, prioritising participation over consent – Western individuality meets Eastern collective. In practice, there are no rules without exceptions. This is universally true.
Arjava tackles the debate: is absentee Reiki without consent ethical? In Western thought, the individual is sacred. In the East, it's the collective. Arjava suggests participation is key – not verbal permission.
Regardless of Western or Eastern perspectives, it is important to reflect on the ethical framework of absentee treatment. Exceptions to rules need to be considered carefully, and the rules themselves require individual scrutiny.
