The Law to Success

Words of Lao-zi  Chapter 69


Original「用兵有言、吾不敢爲主而爲客、不敢進寸而退尺。
是謂行無行、攘無臂、執無兵、扔無敵。
禍莫大於輕敵。輕敵幾喪吾寳。故抗兵相如、哀者勝矣。」

My interpretation:
Genuinely strong person is calm and quiet. An eminent person do not judge from anger. A true winner does not cross swords with the enemy. He is humble against him and knows how to make the best use of the enemy. 

Lao-zi says this is the "The Heavenly Law."


Stay serene.
Make calm judgement.
Keep nonintervention with your enemy.
Stay humble.


Today is winter solstice day. The gravity change will occur from the 20th to the 22nd. Lets stay cautious and be aware.

Safety Awareness

Earthquake M7.1 occurred at Banda Sea near Indonesia  Dec.11th Japan time 1:53am (16:53GMT)

Depth 158km 

As I mentioned in the last article today and next few days are a Watch out Day. The current may come Indonesia ~ Taiwan ~ and split in two direction. One directing toward Korean Peninsula and Japan Sea. The other one toward Chiba and Fukushima offshore. It will be going up north. 

Keep the awareness going through out the month. Prepare items in case of black out. Watch where you stand. 

This is another information to prepare in case of earthquakes.

When we raise the awareness without any fear, it will pass through safely.

Having the awareness would create safety

NEW ARTICLE written today.

    
    The earthquake that occurred yesterday on December 7^th, 17:18 at Sanriku-oki was M7.3. The type of earthquake is called the outer-rise. It is the outer area of the Japan Sea and the rising area of the Pacific Plate. According to the specialists this type of earthquake has a potency to repeat itself for several times. And because it is created at the bottom of the ocean, there would be also the possibility to create high tsunami. It was creeping through out the Pacific Ocean side in a very long area.

    As I had mentioned on the 1^st of December, this months has few astronomical events.

(1)        Dec 4,5,6 – Jupiter, Mercury and the comets influences. The effect on Earth would depend on the sunspot occurrence.

(2)        Dec 12,13. New Moon and the tide changes. Need to observe in a calm manner.

(3)        Dec 24,25,26. Pay attention to the gravity pull from the Moon.

   The character of this month is that the event does not occur in one day but comes in a set of few days. If we could pass this month safely, it means that we succeeded in turning our luck around.

   The earthquake occurred right after the dates of (1).  From this we learn that a day before or a day after the gravity pull would be the day to “pay attention.”  We still have (2) and (3) coming. Around Dec 12 and 13, the influence/pressure on the plates from the tides would be very large. Pay attention to the grounds/plates from the 11^th to the 14^th.

   Every month, the 11^th is a Watch Out day. So lets be cautious from tomorrow the 9^th to the 14^th and observe the natural phenomenon in a calm manner. 


   The strong winds are another concern.  The recent strong winds are extreme like we have never experienced before. I believe it has to do with the ice melting at the poles that is causing extreme low temperature ocean current.

    Prepare for keeping the house warm in case of black outs. Children and elders would be the first to become weak and could be fatal. Consider buying sleeping bags that has the capability to hold heat under minus 10 ℃.

(written on Dec 1st) 

    Another event starting from this month is that we will be seeing more and more UFOs. I am sensing that the UFOs would be visiting individuals even in Japan. Even if you don’t see one, there will be more people experiencing transfixed, bound hands and feet type of experience during their sleep. Actually I had heard the sounds this morning around 3am ~5am, there were numerous groups of UFOs arriving above Japan. It was a very real ultrasonic wave like I had never experienced before. And I felt like they were accessing into my brain. This was quite unexpected. The time has come where these things start to happen. Interestingly enough, after this experience, my concern about the international conflicts had decreased. It is no longer the time for us neighbors to be fighting. It is the time for all of us to prepare for the Earth change.

   You might think this is too unrealistic and foolish. But start a habit to look up the sky. You will start to notice some unusualness. You will start to notice and actually feel the shift of dimensions on this planet. There will be a lot of dreamy nights.




   Continue to emanate the energy of gratitude. This is most important in order to save humanity. All the social problems are only for us to become more aware of being thankful.

The path to reach the heart of Kami

    There are numerous religions and methods that have been introduced to the world from the ancient times. Most of those teachings were about believing in a savior outside of yourself and not inside your heart. When you believe in something outside of yourself, there are many risks and dangers that come along with it. People spend a lot of time, money and efforts for a long time only to realize one day, is this really the right way to live? Why am I still unfulfilled? Even if you are happy with the religion you believe in, the future is uncertain. What will come at the end? Are you sure your will reach the righteous god(Kami)? All religion will say beautiful things. But in truth, when you rely on anything outside of yourself, it is a gamble.

    Then what belief would bring you safely to the righteous god without any risk? It is the path from your innate god through the pipeline of your ancestors. Only from your innate god, would you reach the Root, the origin of all things. When you trust your innate god, you will start to sense the greater god rather than the god created by humans. When you start to sense that, you will finally feel the absolute comfort being in the realm of reality.

    When you worship your ancestral spirits with gratitude, the pipeline that reaches to the Root source will be cleared. You will start to feel grounded in a true sense. You will start to encounter numerous moments in gratefulness. Maybe those things were already there and you are simply starting to realize it. You will start to “know” the true meaning of happiness.

    When you continue the gratitude sending to your ancestors, you will naturally start to sense your personal god within. Then you might find another god related to your innate god who has been supporting you. Your direct communication with god(s) will start.

    Seek a god within yourself and simply send gratitude to an outer god. Worshiping your ancestral spirits with gratitude is the fasted way to become one with god. Your strongest influence comes from your direct ancestral line. And ascending that stream is the only way to reach the state of god.

   The oldest spiritual essence used in the very ancient times is “gratitude” and “yorishiro – 寄り代”(a place for the spirits to stop by to repose for while).The path that I am introducing here includes these essences. “Yorishiro” is a hidden technique that is the basic secret source in ancient Shinto (Ko-Shinto).

    Ancestral worship using tanzaku as a “yorishiro” will actually reach your ancestral spirits. It has a very strong practical power. It is most powerful because you are reaching the spirits who has the strongest fate with you. The occultic rituals created in the past few hundred years are very immature and in no comparison.

    If you feel offended or feel fearful to this simple act of ancestral worship with gratitude, please don’t do it at all.

    For those who have a strong belief of other ideas or are deeply influenced by the World of Ghosts, will not agree to what I am saying. If you could simply send gratitude to all the daily matters that occur in life, that would be good enough.

    Most people will not feel anything and are able to continue with a warm heart. However, in the process, some of you might feel uncomfortableness. That is due to the ancestors’ or your spiritual dust that you are carrying. If you continue with compassion to your ancestors, it will eventually fade away. This process is necessary to prepare yourself to be “baptised” by the spiritual radiation from the sun.

    The spiritual radiation from the sun is getting stronger. From now on, human will be divided into two ways. Those who become younger at heart and those who become mentally disordered. Financial wealth has nothing to do with it.

The unexpected cause

  I received a revelation about a concept on the human DNA. We are facing global crisis with weather, ocean current, forest… the whole natural environment is out of order and destroyed. It is said that the pollution created by humans is the cause. However, the revelation I received tells me that the vibrational energy emanated from the human DNA also takes a big part of the cause.

   The forest becoming feeble is a reflection of the slackness of our DNA. Our DNA has evolved through many centuries and we are part for the great nature. Not only are we part of the great nature, but also the leading model that determines the condition of the whole. Consequently, when we look at the condition of the forest/natural environment of a country, we are able to tell the condition of the nationality’s health/DNA and vice versa.  Even in a country where desert takes most of the land, the wind and the sand movements determines the condition.

   I am saying that the bad condition of the great nature does not affect our DNA so much, but instead, the condition of our DNA affects the great nature in a greater scale.Therefore, when we change our inner world/DNA to a better condition, we are able to save our planet Earth. When we succeed in readjusting our DNA, the great nature will be revitalized and return to the right order.

   And ancestral kuyō takes a big role in the readjustment. The Western religion is lacking the idea of ancestral worship. The destructive side of the Western civilization is because of this lack. Ancestors are the origin of our DNA. And when you are not giving great attention to that fact, it creates a great problem.

   Japan has the potential to save the world, because we still take great importance on ancestral worship. We are capable to become the source of readjustment to all humans’DNA.

   Buddha never talked about ancestral worship. But the Japanese Buddhism has incorporated ancestral worship. It uses the title “Buddhism” but in fact, it has become an original Japanese religion. Kunitoko-tachi-Ookami, the kami of the Chain of Islands of Japan had induced this idea. During the Kamakura Period, the kami led Buddhism to come into Japan and become extremely popular.  Until then, nature worship was the only belief amongst the Japanese people. Buddhism added the idea to heal our personal souls though it is yet under development.

   The idea of nature worship and personal soul healing is still separated in Shintoism and Buddhism. Therefore, having and altar worshiping our source Amaterasu-ohomikami (sun goddess) and underneath the kami-dana having the altar for our ancestors to heal their souls would create an evolution to our DNA. It unites the two (nature worship and personal soul healing) together and reconnects the right spiritual alignment. 

   The first person who realized and challenged this idea was Nichiren (see Dictionary-IseHakusando). But he did not succeed.

   The honey-bees need the queen bee. She procreates children endlessly. The ecology of the bees takes the hexagon shape. This is a reflection of the foundation of the universe. The sun goddess, Amaterasu-ohomikami is our queen bee.  One day, the science may catch up to the idea I am telling you now.

   Ancestral kuyō is essential to change our DNA.

When your mind is troubled, it is still not enough

Words of Lao-zi  - Chapter 43

My interpretation:

A man who obtains a flexible mind can live in a society and still be himself. He is not influenced or trapped by the organizations. He will move like the water and adapt to any shape to any environment. I would say that the most efficient way to live a life is “to be in the natural flow.” It is difficult to explain this in words. The benefit of being in the natural flow is rarely seen in this world.


Original words:「天下之至柔、馳騁天下之至堅. 無有入無間. 吾是以知無爲之有益. 不言之教、無爲之益、天下希及之.」



(my thoughts)

   I want to change my job, I want to move to another place, I want a divorce…. For thousands of years, people have troubled their minds. At times, when you are having a problem, Lao-zi is saying, “keep a flexible mind. Think objectively. Be in the natural flow.” He says that this is the best way and the most efficient way. In other words, when you are troubled by your problem, it means that you are still not there to make a new move. It means that there is still something you could do about it. Your innate god is telling you that you shouldn’t come to a conclusion just yet. When you think about it objectively, it is rather funny to be in a state of “distress.” It means that your imagination on what may happen after you changed your job or your place..divorce is not yet enough.

   When it’s really time to move, to make the change, you will NOT be in distress anymore. It is because your core being is convinced. Whether it is not the right decision or not, it would all feel right in that moment.

   The issue lies here. Whether you will make the right decision or not would dramatically change the course of your life. And those decisions are made upon your thought habits. It depends on how you have been living your life until that point. If you hadn’t work hard enough or you have been unfaithful to yourself, you will not be able to make the right decision. You won’t know what you’re really meant to do. And you will float like a falling leaf. If you live by making enough efforts and being honest with yourself at all times, your innate god and your ancestors are able to guide you easily towards the right direction. The more ego you have the less you are able to listen to your sacred and true being. In addition, even though your ancestors are trying to help you and guide you, you cannot accept it. Your ego will be disturbing the connection.

   To conclude, Lao-zi is suggesting that the best way to live and to bring luck is to 1) Make enough efforts by yourself, be honest to yourself and keep a flexible mind. 2) Feel the natural flow in your life.

   Don’ t let other people guide you. Listen to your own innate being. I believe this is the most important thing in life. That is because I sense that life is about convincing yourself. Keep honesty and keep making efforts. And at the end of your life, you will be convinced that you made the right path.

Accepting both the positive and the negative

    The national highway Route 41 that connects Nagoya city and Toyama city runs in a line crossing Japan from one west end to one east end. And the area around Route 41 has given birth to eight Nobel Prize winners in the field of natural science.

     This links to what I had written four years ago. The line that ties Mt.Haku (Hakusan) and Ise Jingu (The Grand Shrine of Ise) has a very strong special kind of vibrational energy. And it’s continuing to increase its power.  Mt.Haku is the ultimate point of ying energy. And Ise Jingu is the ultimate point of yang energy. Thus energetically just like the symbol of ying&yang can be seen in the middle of Japan.

    The important thing here is for everyone to start to see this idea within him/herself. Like the Chinese philosopher Lao-zi used to say, go the natural way. By doing so, you will be able to unite your ying&yang. When your two sides unite, you will become the pillar of light standing tall on your homeland.

     It may sound difficult to you. How could I unite my ying&yang energy? I am talking about the negative side and the positive side of oneself. The negative side is your negative emotions such as anxiety and sufferings. And at the same time, we all have our positive sides as well. If you try to eliminate one side, it doesn’t work well and life becomes stressful. The important thing is to accept both and have a good balance in life. And then your mind will start to circulate vitally. Like this symbol of ying&yang, your dark side also has it’s small bright part. Even things are going very well and looking bright, leave a small part with concern (the dark dot). By accepting both your bright side and your dark side, you are uniting yourself. And your spirit body will become a light pillar standing tall in your home ground. 

    The center of the ying&yang 
force would be in Japan on the line that connects Ise and Mt.Haku. And there will me more intelligence coming out from the people in this area. It is a miracle to have such power place at this time in Japan. There are many problems in Japan pilling up too. But this is just like this symbol. So don’t worry. It is all meant to be there. The personal concerns and the national concerns… it’s all part of the whole… like the small dot in the dark and the small dot in the white.


  Just take a deep breathe, relax and accept the wholeness of self.

Sliding and shifting

(written Oct 31rd)

     The damage caused by Hurricane Sandy was worse than predicted.  The Manhattan power plant explosion, tons of garbage washed down to the subway along with the flood, severe damages of roads, vast area of flood… … more details to be revealed. The total estimate caused by this hurricane is said to be 20 billion US$. The flooded scenes of New York reminded me of the story that Bill told me during my visit to the US last year (http://isehakusando-eng-version.blogspot.jp/2011/05/business-trip-to-us.html). It is just like the movie “The Day After Tomorrow”.  If this happens in the mids of winter, the flood could turn into ice. Yet the US government was aware of this climate change disasters and have been preparing. The majority of NASA has already moved to Dayton, Ohio. And all the Military bases near the shoreline have moved to the inland. In my psychic vision, I could see Chicago being the next center of financial district after New York. In Japan, we are also experiencing larger typhoons, extreme strong rain in one spot at a short period of time, hail size getting larger…. 

    This summer, there has been a report about the north and south poles’ ice rapid melt. In addition, what I am concerned is about the geo-magnetic field becoming weaker. When the geo-magnetic field is weakened, it means that the barrier protecting us from all kinds of radiations from space is weakened. To prove this, aurora has started to appear even in Japan. Rainbow color clouds are seen often and the night sky doesn’t look so dark as it used to be.

     With such phenomenon, I would assume that we are already showered by the cosmic-ray. This means that the airplane pilots are exposed to more radiation than before. And we will be less resistant to infectious diseases. All kind of virus infection may expand. Adding to it, 1) due to the north and south poles’ ice melting, the pole shift is occurring. 2) The pole shift may have to do with the lowering of the geo-magnetic field. The electro-magnetic energy from the sun may be affecting the poles strongly because of this. 3) From the shifting of the pole, geographically the north and south poles will change drastically. There is a theory that the south pole once used to be a warm climate. 4) Another possibility is that the north and south magnetic field may turn around to the complete opposite. Therefore, the study of feng shui no longer applies. It will become the complete opposite.

    The problem is how long would it take for this drastic change to occur? In my opinion, next year 2013 would be the key year. The Ise Jingu (Amatsu-kami/ the heavenly god) and the Izumo Taisha (Kunitsu-kami the earthly god) are both having the sengū* ceremony in 2013. Historically, this is very rare to have the two in the same year. The bipolar gods’ shrine is renewed at the same year. And here I hear the old Japanese folk song …  “At dawn, in the dark night, a crane and a turtle had slipped …” The crane signifies the Amatsu-kami, the heavenly one= Ise Shrine = north pole. And the turtle signifies the Kunitsu-kami, the earthly one = Izumo Shrine = south pole. These two poles would slide in 2013… this is what I am sensing. Therefore, the drastic pole shift would start from 2013. At the same time, from 2013 to 2014 there will be many natural phenomenon and other drastic changes within countries.

    In order to pass through this critical time, many of us human beings must become awaken to the sense of gratitude. The electro-magnetic energy emanated from the sense of gratitude is most powerful.

Maintain your originality

Lao zi : Chapter 33

(my interpretation)

    One who knows a lot about other people is a knowledgeable person. But one who knows about himself is a wise person. One who could win over another is a powerful person. But one who could win over himself is truly a strong person. One who could be satisfied in any kind of situation is a truly blissful person. When one has strong desires, one will tend to overdo. One who could keep his own pace will have the tolerance to continue one thing for a long period. In addition, one who lives his own path will live in eternity.

 


Original 
words:「知人者智。自知者明。
勝人者有力。自勝者強。
知足者富。強行者有志。
不失其所者久。死而不亡者壽。」



    My thoughts: Lao zi is saying:

 1. Learn about yourself. 

 2. Win over yourself. 

 3. Learn about enough. 

 4. Be yourself and then you will live an eternal life. 

    You might think you are living YOU. But often times, it is coated by other people’s perspective. You might be conscious about what others think of you. That is why you buy designers clothes, bags, shoes.. And you suffer from paying off your credit card bills. You think that your house looks old from the outside. And you make a loan and suffer from paying back. You might also hit your child’s head in front of others, because you thought it was the right thing to do. But the idea of the “right thing” may be coming from “what others might think of me.” And your whole life becomes an act of trying to become someone else. It is a good thing to look nice and have the etiquettes. But some people might even kill himself because they worry so much about the other people’s reaction. Did these people live his own life? Didn’t he create a whole imaginative drama through colored glasses of other people? Even in very poor countries, the eyes of the children are shinning. Once they become adults, they loose the shine. Isn’t it because they worry so much about what others are doing and thinking?  In the Japanese train during the rush hours, I see many people with gloomy eyes…

    So how can we change? What can we do to make our eyes shine again?  The solution is to become consciously aware on the four points mentioned above. Then you will get hints of how to maintain yourself. And once you will master these four, you will have an eternal life says Lao zi. In this chapter, Lao zi is talking about span of life and life after death. This is very rare. He became known as a person who wrote about the passage to become a mystic (an immortal). I think it was a false understanding. Some people had mistakenly read this chapter as a way to become an immortal. He did not explain such superficial idea. It is a bigger and more realistic meaning about life.

    We are capable of maintaining our own original magnetic energy field. And we are capable of nurturing our originality in all kind of situations in our lives. All unpleasant events that occur in our lives are also a place to learn and train ourselves in order to grow. When you truly know who you are, then all of the sudden you will understand the whole universe.  There are no steps. You will suddenly understand the whole.  When you buy other people’s energy and try to bring it into your body, your original energy will age faster and you no longer will live an eternal life. You will be stuck in a limited world. That's because you are not living your own life with your own will power and strength. Simply live your life with joy and gratitude. This is the only right answer and fastest way to reach the awake.
