Seeking God 1

Notebook

There is a person called Sahara ○ ○ ○ my disciple
Voice of God seems to have heard him.
I went to pray,
That there is such a thing, it tells us, to tell the story

------------------------------------------------

　　１）　Why go to the shrine ?

There are temples and shrines in Japan
I had to go to both the temples and shrines at first.
me, may then go to the shrine has become many.

-------------------------------

Why not go to the shrine has become many. ?

It is the atmosphere that have monks of temples and
shrines, with the priest',
Temple's feels like there is a heavy atmosphere as a whole.
Shinto priest's would feel like there is a light
atmosphere

Than heavy people, because I wanted to studying so
that it can become a light touch

At the same at any time since the shrine is open 24 hours,
Ｍｅ can also pray it was advantage

２) How to pray to the God of the shrine

I personally will describe the way that worship here.
Lightly in front of the torii, to fit the hand,
Or may enter and listen
"Enter, and is good; if is said, is good",
is light, and nod; and in a torii
I go

It might be said, "the no use must not enter".
I confessed regardless of whether a bad thing did so it

(I think to God with) with business,
circumstances.)
If is now; "understood it". I return obediently
without inquiring into "and anything.

The permission of God is given and passes
through the torii and stands in front of the
main shrine of the Shinto shrine.
God orders the place to stand.
There was never that I was made to stand in the just
in front of of the main shrine so far.
You must stand in the place that God
orders, the good place.
I cannot concentrate on a silent prayer not
to calm down if even 2 or 3cm is out of
order even if I stand.

I stand in front of a main shrine and I lower
the head slightly twice and put hands
together twice and lower the head once
and I take down a hand and pray silently
I close eyelids, but the eyes adjust
consciousness to God while staring at God
prays silently.
Because the hermit is intended to receive
power of God,
A silent prayer is the best method.

A lot of people of the worship cannot pray
silently in the daytime, too (people of the
worship are troubled)
I go for prayer at night. Will the rank
pray silently for from ten to 20?
When "it is already good, God is good," as
for this time, I order it.
I will do it without these instructions more,
If a silent prayer is over, the heart is
refreshing; clearly

A way of the prayer will be different from
the general person.

　　　　　　３) �@ God exists.

The definition of God is necessary
before talking about God
God told to be God, God of the space,
I cannot check it which please exist which
I do not know.
However, God is a Shinto shrine of Japan
and it thinks that I exist.

------------------------------------

　　Why is it thought that God exists?

I prayed at Hiraoka Shrine in Osaka every day more than 30 years
Pray; and after two or three years
One day I was not able to take in power of God,
I followed for days
It is to have felt if strange that something is funny.
I felt that it was different so far when I
It is like the unoccupied house where nobody is.

I have begun to think that a way back that I
prayed was the tenth lunar month now in October.
God went to Izumo
So it becomes like an unoccupied house
I display a household Shinto altar in the office,
The sign that God is does not have the
household Shinto altar of the office
It seemed to be away.
Go in five or six days of October,
God return in 25,6 day.
It is so every year.

　　　　　４） �A God exists.

When, in front of a main shrine of Hiraoka
Shrine, I am going to enter the front shrine
An elderly woman sat down in a front shrine.
(I was going every day,., Which was put in
front shrine era of Showa)
It is rebuilt newly and does not put it now
When because me must not interfere with
the person, I am going to return,
I heard a voice, "I looked".

I put both hands together when I watch the
woman in the front shrine and breathe in both hands.

(the line of the Imperial ritual for the spirits
of the Imperial dead has breath in that as if
wrapping a ball in both hands)
which I run and feel it with a soul and
wave both hands up and down, and is a
line letting you activate a soul

At the same time as a line of the Imperial
ritual for the spirits of the Imperial dead begins;
from her left something like fog,
It springs out and comes out

The movement of both hands became
slightly early, too.
As training advances, something like fog
springs out in the sky, and appear,
Someone seemed to be in fog
It seems to be staring at the state of the training of her
As speed of the top and bottom of both
hands increases,
The man who wore similar clothes when a
pure white Shinto priest wore it in fog,
It became in a half sitting and saw the
figure which stared at movement of the
hand clearly.
When the speed of the top and bottom
becomes calm, too,
The figure of the man in pure white clothes disappears
A line of the Imperial ritual for the spirits of
the Imperial dead is over
The fog disappeared, too, and only woman
one sat down as there was nothing.
I began it and was the moment when I had
me turn up of God.

　　　５）I enter the front shrine

It does not mean that was placed in the hall of
worship from the beginning
I entered the front shrine and wanted to
pray silently
When I am going to enter the front shrine,
"You must not get nervous, and you were
said from there",

It is the youngest place of stairs going up in
a front shrine to have been ordered with there.
Wait for a knee under the stairs; was, and
continued a silent prayer two or three days.
Then
It is said, "one step, the up are good".
Climb it with two steps, three steps in this way,
I came to pray silently in the corridor in
front of the front shrine.
Though it went up by one step if there were
four days for a long time for two or three days,
the permission appeared in the place of stairs, but,
It took one week to graduate from a corridor. ,
In a front shrine, the place to sit down even
if I put it is ordered,
It is the left rear towards the front. I was
slightly good towards the front,
I was not able to sit down before from the middle,

Even if I still go to other Shinto shrines and
climb the front shrine (I do not calm down even if I sit down)
There are not the instructions to sit down
towards the front.

　　　　　６）The moon where God gathers

This is known as the month that God does not exist in
general in October, but it seems to say that the moon
God gather you go to Izumo country
Because when it is October, God goes to
the Izumo country; I am Izumo district in
God later, too
I continued it for に several years.

Yonago-shi is in the middle to go to Izumo
from Osaka. Large Kamiyama Shinto shrine
is in Yonago,
The large Kamiyama Shinto shrine had the
head office and a deepest-placed shrine
and went to the prayer every month in the
Shinto shrine.
It is one of my favorite Shinto shrines.
That year, I was looking forward to that God gather to this shrine
because it was known,
I had power of God visiting other Shinto
shrines until the day came.

Evening of that day came, a light bulb is lit in this shrine always
If me look at the main hall from the front of the torii,
Electric light's are on, but the brightness is it different from usual.
As golden color, in the main shrine is shining though.
The entering into of torii also hesitated, whether not to interfere
with God
Though I want to meet God, and a
mysterious thing comes to the Izumo country,
Okay, I hesitate when it becomes the scene.
Because it was said, "I entered inside and was good",
I went in from the torii.

The inside is brilliant brightly even if I arrive
in front of a main shrine. I pray silently in
front of it
Because it was said, "I entered inside",
it was contained in a ring of God, but,
But but I forgot a feeling at that time
I entered, and, for several minutes, the light
of the light has become the usual light, too.

---------------------------------

Sequel
God or get together where the shrine and then, a few years, wait,
do not know
Has become,
It seemed to say monks of Koyasan also, no longer know.
From no longer know
I think to go to Izumo countries even at the October is gone.
Because there are a lot of good Shrine Izumo country,
Also I wonder if can view to go to the shrine of Izumo countries when
it becomes October
To interfere with the meeting of God　？

　　７）Seeking God in All over Japan

If acting power thinks of this in a story of the youth,
youth, it is an action immediately.
I was praying the (shrine God to protect the whole
region ) Ichinomiya Shrine nationwide
But, there was no wonder that so much.
Only one was able to remain in the heart,
It is the time when I was around Kyushu.
When running on the car, a shrine was worrisome.
Was not a Ichinomiya Shrine there, but I went into the worship

When is about to return without becoming
the mind to pray silently in front of the main
shrine; in the left back of the main shrine

Seven or eight small shrines formed a line.
When consider whether enshrine the divided divine spirit of what Shinto shrine,
I heard a voice when "I opened the door".
Because God enters despite a small shrine
inside, may I open out?
I thought, but decided to open out as
having been said.

Small shrine, God because it contains in, and
wonder may be opened
I thought, but decided to open it as was said.

it was opened from the right end,
When I opened the third second, from the right of the
left edge because there is no change nothing
Because the spirit of a god person turned
to the side, it is closed for the front,
Because some fourth turned to the side,
this is closed for the front.
When I opened the fifth, the mind of the Spirit
person came off diagonally
When you tried to open the six eyes close the door
towards the front which is also upright,
And because it was said to be "not make you
anymore", it could not be opened.
