      On Hope

      May 3, 2020

      A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO I started sometimes asking, at the end of my conversations: “What makes you despair, and where are you finding hope?” It turns out that answers to the two parts of that question are more often conjoined than oppositional. The pu

      The Split: Why We Lost Consciousness and Need to Wake Up

      Dec 15, 2020

      — Centuries ago, we lost something very precious. It radically changed the course of our evolution, progressively disconnecting us from our humanity and bringing us to the brink of destruction. Deprived of this vital nourishment, we have fallen prey

      Prayer for World Peace

      * * *

      Byakko is a Japanese word meaning ‘white light.’ It is the clear and free-flowing light emitting from the deepest and highest condition of a human being. This publication is for people who wish to call forth this pure light in their daily lives, letting it create a bright future for humanity and the planet Earth.

      Daily Reflections

      by Masami Saionji

      Each and every human being is born for the purpose of manifesting his or her own divine nature (Ware Soku Kami Nari). That is all—there is nothing else.

      dr_design

      In this world, there is no permanent stability. There is only a lifelong process that continues until the moment of death—a process of elevating our consciousness to infinitely higher dimensions, in order to become one with the divine mind.

      dr_design

      For every single human being, the instant we are born in this world, we begin to breathe. Breath is the starting point of our life, and yet many people have completely forgotten how wonderful and powerful breathing can be. They are controlled by their shifting thoughts and emotions, and their breathing is shallow, quick, and uneven. In this way, they draw illness, accidents, and misfortune into their lives.

      dr_design

      As much as possible, let us avoid spending time feeling downhearted and distressed. Instead, let us find hope in things that bring us even a little joy, and transform our negative thinking into positive thinking.

      dr_design

      If we can remain unaffected by greed and desire, and live freely without clutching at the things and circumstances that appear around us, it is an amazing accomplishment!

      dr_design

      A divinely conscious person is one who continues amassing small dots of prayer, until finally they form a line that reaches to heaven, joining heaven and earth as one.

      dr_design

      We polish and elevate ourselves not for our own benefit, but to offer ourselves for the peace of the world.

      The Rebirth of Our Sacred Consciousness

      A paradigm for a spiritual civilization

      by Masami Saionji

      A surge in human evolution and planetary elevation

      Masami%20magazine%202.jpg Today, the earth’s people are on the verge of a great leap forward in their individual evolution and self-creative process. This surge has already begun, and the time has at long last arrived when each and every one of us will join in the current of this large-scale evolutionary trend.

      I say this because, along with the dimensional elevation of Earth, more and more of us are becoming spiritually minded. That is to
