Dr. David Delgado Shorter is a tenured professor at UCLA and the Director of the Archive of Healing.
His courses include the study of healing across cultures. In pursuit of knowledge about different healing modalities, he travelled to Japan to study directly with Hiroshi Doi Sensei.
Hiroshi Doi Sensei is a founder of Gendai Reiki Ho. Born in Okayama, Japan in 1935. After learning countless healing modalities, he learned the Western Reiki and the original Japanese Usui Reiki systems. He deepened his study and practice of both Reiki methods, and developed Gendai Reiki Ho, which combines the techniques from Western Reiki and the deep spiritual aspects and the truth of life from Japanese Usui Reiki. Hiroshi Doi is the president of Gendai Reiki Healing Association (GRHA).

From the Gendai Reiki Network website:
"The Gendai Reiki Method is widely recognized in Japan and around the world.
It is a simple and practical Reiki method that can be used on a daily basis, following the spiritual improvement taught by Mikao Usui (臼井甕男) and fully benefiting from its effects.
Gendai Reiki Ho is not a new Reiki system. It can be referred to as “original Japanese Usui Reiki Ryoho in the Gendai Reiki style,” as it allows people in modern society to learn and practice the original Japanese Usui Reiki Ryoho easily and comfortably.
Reiki is a healing method using Reiki, and ‘to be healed’ means to go back to its original, healthy state. Not just the body, but also mind and soul are all in a healthy state. Usui Sensei said that Usui Reiki Ryoho included both aspects of physical treatment and spiritual practice. He completely trusted a Reiki practitioner as to which aspect to take. If you understand Reiki as physical treatment, your Reiki session will be a physical treatment mainly targeting the physical body. If you understand Reiki as a spiritual practice to heal mind and soul, your Reiki session will be a spiritual practice."
