Towards a Grand Leap

- from Dec.30th article -

Year 2008 seems like it went in a flash. I managed to work during the day, come home, write my daily blog and respond to hundreds of comments. In between, I had some editing to do on the book edition. Having been able to work twenty hours daily on all these things without getting sick, I am truly grateful for all the beings who supported me.

The daily messages would come to me while I am washing my face in the morning, or while I am driving the car to work. It comes in between the moments when I am stressed with job details and cautiously driving. I find it interesting as a brain science, how this works; the spiritual insight pouring into my brain while I am focusing on something very practical. Right after I return home, I write in at once. When I start to write, my mind is half gone into the divine realm and the content and expression may very well be an unexpected one. Then my wife and children looks at my serious face and tries to tease me. (laugh) In spite of this sabotage, I commit myself to finish the writing. I write exactly as the spirits tell me. Nothing more nothing less. Whether you like the idea or not is all up to you. It is your choice to decide to read it or not.

Early this year, around spring, I was told by the divine spirit to go a place on New Year’s Eve. It is very unusual for me to receive such revelation. I personally disrespect a Kamiwaza (an act on god's will) that demands one to go to a certain place at a certain time. On top of that I simply love sitting in the kotatsu (a table with heat source) watching TV on New Year’s Eve. I would hate to miss that. But the spirit does not seem to give up. Finally he checkmated me and it seems like I have no choice. If I successfully complete this mission, the lost third stone pillar of Mt.Haku will return to this land of Japan in a spiritual sense. Then the grand wheel will start turning from next year. Kamiwaza may sound like a big deal, but actually I just need to go and do something along with my family. Oh well… lets see how it goes.

Wishing you a happy new year.
Thank you so much for all your support in 2008.
Through the blog site, I have met so many people in such a short period of time. This is a very rare situation and I will truly treasure this experience.

If I come home safely after my mission, I will start writing again from the 3rd of January.

If I don’t… then farewell. Sayoonara ~
