I Felt So Discouraged When The Earthquake Happened in New Zealand

A few days ago, I introduced to you how and what I felt and thought about the earthquake happened in New Zealand. It is very natural that each person has his/her own feeling about any natural disaster and happening. I have told you about many future happenings based on the revelations I received including the earthquake in New Zealand, the accident at the nuclear power plant at Takahama(Fukui Prefecture), the volcanic explosion at Kirishima in Kyushu, various many political struggles and internal upheavals in the world. The “tsunami” happened in Sumatera is probably one good example. Rica and I conducted our own prayers for all of them so that no major misery would take place.

We did pray as much as we could with regard to the earthquake that happened in New Zealand, too. We did not want it happen. As I told you in my last blog, I think that the earthquake happened in New Zealand still has its close relations with Japan. There is a great chance that another big earthquake will happen in Japan, too.

I did all I could, including prayers at the Mt. Asahidake in Hokkaido throughout the night. I know that these severe divine activities are not good for my health. It is not the subject to be proud of. But, let me tell you that I could not stop myself from doing them. I had so many frightful visions and I was scared of them. So I wanted to try to avert them, if I could with prayers. Now I feel very discouraged and helpless. Despite our prayers, the earthquake actually happened. This is a reality and it is unbearable for me. Sometimes I feel how much easier it would become for me if I could cut off my life and abandon everything once for all. Then, why are we still continuing our prayers and divine activities? We are doing this because we believe that we will have a wonderful future ahead of us.

Let me tell you about another revelation I received.

It tells me---[ If you can overcome this misery and horrible happening, there will be a brighter future for you. Taking what happened in a negative way and getting discouraged too much is no good].

I know that there are many opinions and views about what I tell you in this blog. Every person has his/her own values, or way of thinking, and so I will take them all.
In the case of the “tsunami” at Sumatera, I was doing just the same thing. I was praying and doing my best so that nothing would happen on December 26. But, the result was that big disaster. I felt so helpless then. My heart was broken and I was so sad about it. I had no power to stop it from happening. I almost thought that it would be better for me to stop all the divine activities. Then, I was awaked again by another revelation. I encouraged myself and started another series of prayer. My mind told me that I still have something that I should keep doing. This is how we started our new divine activities from 2005 to 2010. It was to combine Okinawa’s God of the Dragon and the mainland Japan for a harmony.

And then, one unexpected thing happened after the disaster in Sumatera. Within a month after that “tsunami”, a person said to me this. “What do you think about what happened at Sumatera? It was good because it helped to reduce the number of population of us humans on the Earth”. This word made me feel angry because I knew I could not stop it from happening even after receiving a revelation. I almost exploded in myself but I tried to suppress my feeling. So I didn’t say anything to this person.

Actually there are some people, even among those who conduct divine activities, who say that it is good for Japan to reduce its population, and that all the mothers have their rights to deprive their children of their lives. Some say that all the Gods of the universe are making earthquakes and volcanic explosions to re-establish the Earth by reallocating the human race. They say that the natural disasters and wars are parts of the ascension.
It is true that I have received many visions and revelations that tell me that the world will surely go into wars and that the world will suffer from disasters and starvations. All I am doing is to try to avert such a situation from happening in the real world. But I must tell you that it is also true that there are people who say the followings---actual disasters, local conflicts and wars are for reducing people from the surface of the Earth, for the ascension, and for rebuilding the world. It is true that they are also welcoming natural disasters.
  

 

The Earth Is Alive

I would appreciate it if you think again and check what I am saying in this blog. There are people who say that things happen when you think in a negative way. Their point is that it is better to think things in a positive way. I guess that it is one way to look at things. But, let’s be realistic about it. We cannot ignore the fact that many volcanic explosions, earthquakes, “tsunami” and typhoons are actually happening on the Earth. The Earth is alive. And it is also true that we still face many conflicts, wars and starvations on the Earth today. They do exist now.

Let me explain my point more. It is not the way of taking things that counts. It is not that bad things never happen when you think only good things. What I am saying is that we need to get prepared for any happening. We are living now and it is very important for us to have the preparedness. We need to have the awareness first. If we have this, we will not panic whatever may happen. The important thing is that we get prepared for unexpected happenings, and that we find places for shelter at the worst case. We have to get prepared in all ways with the awareness that anything can happen to us. This awareness of ours is a very important factor for our survival.

It is a historical fact that many earthquakes and volcanic explosions did happen. It is a proof that the Earth is alive. These happenings take place over years periodically. In Japan, it is important to notice that many existing nuclear power plants around the country can make any secondary accident at the time of natural disasters. There are some accidents caused by human errors. Some of them may take place due to the depletion of various facilities of nuclear power plants. Some may take place due to the unexpected destructions out of political confusions.

They may take place, and some did take place in reality.

What I would like you to realize and find is simple.

They did not happen from any negative way of looking at the reality. These are the realities and they can happen more at any time. This is what I would like you to know. So the next thing I would like you to do is to think what we can do about it seriously. Let us try to learn something from the past disasters and let us try to take our own actions so that we will not repeat it. Let us try to take it as our own matter and think about it more carefully. Let us try to make our own plans for our own safety. This is what I am saying.

 

I Am Scared and Angry Sometimes

Let me be very frank with you. I am desperate all the time---while sleeping, making speeches and even driving. I am constantly being influenced by the visions I see. And I am trying my best to try to avert them and try to minimize the casualties and victims. This basic fear and anxiety leads me to my/our divine activities.

Please do not think that all the things I am telling you, good or bad, do take place in the real world. They do not. Please understand that what I am telling you can or may happen. All I would like you to understand is to overcome whatever may happen to you and try to reach a better future for yourself. It will be my pleasure if you can receive what I am saying as a guide for your own life. I would be most glad if you can find the best way for you from what I am saying.

I told you about the person who said that the “tsunami” at Sumatera was good for reducing the number of people from the Earth. But my question is this. Does this person really think about the victims and casualties deeply? Does this person relate those dead people like the way he/she thinks about his/her relatives and families? Does this person take what it is as part of himself or herself? Does this person really care? If this person really takes it as a personal matter, it would be much more different, I guess. What I am saying is this. When you are serious and take whatever may happen as your own personal matter, that is the time that you can comprehend the whole thing. Then, you may have a chance to save yourself. If you are prepared, there is a greater chance for you to be safe and survive in any disaster.

The visions I am receiving are real and I feel as if I were there myself. These visions also carry the karmas and spirits of those who died in the disasters. They are so real. They have lost their own lives that they could have enjoyed more if no disaster took place. Please imagine how I feel then. I am helpless and sometimes angry because I could not help these people, because my prayer did not do any good for preventing the disasters. And sometimes I lose the will power to live on myself.

Then I try to encourage myself by saying in mind---[Yoshimaru, you cannot stop like this. You should continue doing what you have done for long].

When we overcome any misery and try to move ahead again for a better future, we can carry the spirits of those victims together with us. Then we can heal those spirits together with us. Even after those lives of the dead become the “light”, they still carry their own “karmas” and “thoughts”. When we survivors try to live on to make a better future for ourselves, we can connect the “karmas” and “thoughts” of the dead to the future, and only then they will be freed from everything. To live our life with a serious mind is to create a better future for ourselves. Everything is related. Only when we live our life all the way, we can reach a better future. This is my basic way of thinking.
I am asking all of you to learn from your own past for your own better future. For this, I would like you to pray together with us. Please pray for yourself and for those you love. Please have your own vision of your own future. Please try to act yourself to actualize your own visions.

Thank you for your assistance. We wanted to thank you directly face to face but we could not do so. We had to send letters of gratitude to you respectively. All we did was to send you words of thanks by emails. Let us tell you that we are making the most of your contributions for the best. Thank you for reading this long blog.

About Our Divine Activities from Now On

(by Yoshimaru Higa) February 25, 2011

 

The 61^st Year Since the Start of Our Divine Activities

Our divine activities this year have something to do with the happenings at Nakagusuku Gulf and close to Kudakajima Island in Okinawa last September. This extraordinary phenomenon is related to the fact that the sea surface has created a big whirling. Last year I received a revelation when I was conducting a prayer. It said as follows: [The time has come. The old calendar has ended and the new calendar will begin. This new calendar is based on the traditional calendar and it is combining the worlds of the nature, the Gods ,the spirits and the people. Start using this new calendar!]

About 90 years ago, when my mother was about 6 years old, she was guided to learn about this traditional calendar and it gave her a clue to start her divine activities. My mother started her divine prayers at the age of 34 and continued doing the job until one week before the day she died at the age of 81. She was handling all the important activities, such as meeting with the Gods, connecting the Gods, harmonizing and integrating the Gods in the worlds of the nature, in the world of the Gods, in the world of the spirits and in the world of the people.

After my mother’s death, I, Yoshimaru Higa, inherited her divine activities. This year is the 61^st year of divine activities since the time when my mother originated the whole thing and my succeeding it. Last year was the 60^th year anniversary. Through all these years, I have to admit that we have been assisted by so many people. All our current divine activities are possible to continue now, thanks to their dedication, devotion, patience and cooperation. Without all this, nothing was possible. I owe so much to them. The divine activities in the old days were so hard to carry out. I grew up by seeing them and by being educated and taught many things from them.

 

The Future Shape of the World and the Visions

I recalled some visions and stories from my elders in the old days when I got fainted in Hokkaido(north of Japan) last year. Strangely, all of them came back to my mind so clearly then. I realized that the visions told to me from my childhood till the days of my 20’s are the realities that actually happened till the year of 2003. I was taking them as more like visions of science fictions when I was a child. But, now I realize that the visions I saw when I was a child are actually those of the future---the world that will come after the Earth is reborn. This is about my new revelation and realization of the world that I obtained in Hokkaido last year.
At the same time, I realized that the words told to me during the past few years are actually the same things which were already told me when I was a child.

Let me explain what it is in an easy way. The words are this.

[ I have been warning you people for long. You people, the humans, must make it sure that the last war that you can make will be the 2^nd World War. Make it the last one. Learn something very important through your experiences. But, that is only up to the 2^nd World War. If you learn something important, then you can have a good future for all of you. But, if you ignore my warning and continue the fighting more, small or big, you humans will eventually make another big world war and as a result, all of you will perish. At that time, all the lives on the Earth including the spirits, will break the silence and surely get rid of the humans from the surface of the Earth. But, there is still a hope for you humans. If you realize that you are the ones who have to make a better future, you can make one. You, Yoshimaru, you have to learn what I am saying and understand what I am saying in depth. You, Yoshimaru, shall inherit the job that your mother has done. You must spend all of you--a half century—for this].

 

The Beginning of My Task

The happening in Okinawa( the change of the sea whirling) last year is the last expression and token of the divine activities done by my mother. What will come after this is my task. It means that I have started my own divine activities all by myself at long last.

As I introduced in our blog before, it is very clear that our divine activities and our daily life have been sustained by our elders and traditional wisdom holders. It was their efforts that made us possible to inherit their achievements for the future and next generation. Now I strongly feel that I will have to keep all this in mind and act accordingly in my daily life so that I will make the most of their teachings. For that, I need actions and they must be real.
I know that our elders have their own history of conducting their own divine activities for making their way for a better future. They surely acted in their own ways and achieved so much. I myself must follow all of them, including those taught and given to me from my own mother. So I am trying my best to build a better future on my own with the help of my wife. This is my basic stance in my divine activities. By saying this, I know that I myself have to evolve more in many ways.

My mother passed away in 1998. After that, I went through with many things, including the bankruptcy of my own company, my own sicknesses , good and bad relations with many people involved, etc. Then, I started devoting myself for divine prayers to avert that incident---the “September 11, 2001”. But, I have to admit that I was unable to establish an overall and decent way of conducting traditional divine activities. During 2001 and 2003, I was afraid that the world might go into another big world war and I conducted my own divine prayers to avert it. It was my main action then.
The year of 2004 was a turning point. I started to build a new way of establishing my own prayers and divine ceremonies. This made me to move around Japan many times. It continued for 5 years. I went around almost everywhere in Japan. The year of 2010 was a year for me to devote all of myself for one main purpose. It was to try to let people in Japan know more about the importance of the awareness of ourselves and the universe. I had to explain about the awareness of the God of the Dragon(the God that saves the world), and the wisdom about the universe itself. Shortly, it was to let people get motivated to know more about the wisdoms. One of them is the wisdom to live along together with all the living lives by maintaining a good harmony. The other is the wisdom to make a world of good harmony for all of us. When we are enlightened and know more about these wisdoms, the time will come to get to know more about ourselves, inner awareness of our own. All this will lead to a united action to make a better world and a better future for all of us. This was the basic idea of mine. And I did my best with all my mind and soul.

My divine activities throughout Japan hoping that the God of the Dragon will be connected to the whole of the Japanese peninsula continued and in 2010 we celebrated our 5^th year of this consecutive actions. Then, I saw the whirlpools in the ocean at Nakagusuku Gulf in Okinawa. It was a proof that the system of the calendar and that of the world of the nature have at last drastically moved forward for the future. It was the very turning point.

 

The Key is “Harmonization”

This year, 2011, I am receiving a revelation that I will have to rebuild the world of the Gods for the better. It means that I will have to harmonize all the worlds---that of the traditional Japanese Gods, that of the Gods of all the shrines and temples in Japan. The key factor is “harmonization”. Speaking about the world of the spirits, it is the same with the world of the Gods. It holds many adjustments to be fixed as well. Concerning the world of the people, it is most complicated. No matter what they may be, I will not stop conducting my divine activities to harmonize all the pending matters for the better.

It is not that easy to do this. It may take a few years or maybe the whole life of mine. So it is not something I alone can accomplish it. I have to ask for help and assistance from other people . I have to take a good balance between what it was before(past) and what it will be from now(future). Taking a good balance sometimes means that I will have to review the past achievements and rebuild the way for future betterment.

We cannot carry out things so easily. It is so because we have “Yin”(the shade) on one hand and “Yang” (the light)on the other. What is important is to take a good balance between the shade and the light. It is true with not only in the case of our divine activities but in our daily life as well. My wife and I have tried to establish our own new way for our divine activities. For this, we have prayed at many places( our own shrine and other important spots in Okinawa, the Ryukyu Islands, all around the mainland Japan and at various places overseas. We have repeated our “trials and errors”. We had to re-establish our own way by reviewing what we have done and by seeking new directions. We had to evolve ourselves. I guess that it is just about the same in the case of the real world.
Maybe it is the same if you wish to make what you hope for should come true. You can do so only if you seriously want to hope to change something to make a better future. It is up to one’s own awareness as well as own actions. I am very glad if you understand what I am saying.

As I introduced earlier, I have devoted almost 60 to 65 years to create a calendar of the world of the nature. I spent one third of year in the mainland Japan, hoping that I could combine Okinawa with the mainland Japan with harmony. It is not that it will be all right once I made a harmonized system in Okinawa and the mainland Japan. It is only the beginning of all from now. My wife and I will have to try more to make a better system for us throughout our lifetime and we will need to be succeeded by the next generation. It is our task.

It is true with what is going on in our real world. If we want to make a better future for all of us living on the Earth, we have to realize this. We have to make something that will be treasured by our descendants. What is important for all of us is to try our best to live our lives. Live! We need to take good care of ourselves and other living creatures as well. We have to educate ourselves for our next generation. This is also the main purpose and the basic belief for us in our divine activities. It is our destiny.

 

About the Earthquake in New Zealand

(by Yoshimaru Higa) February 24, 2011

 

I was told by revelations that the earthquake happened in New Zealand recently was deeply connected with Japan. New Zealand itself is situated on many active faults and it is telling us that there is always a great possibility of big earthquakes there at any moment. Likewise, Japan, which is situated on many active faults, from northern Hokkaido to southern Kyushu and Okinawa, has a great possibility of being assaulted by any big earthquake at any moment. This is so because Japan has many volcanoes and plates around the archipelago. So New Zealand and Japan are very much alike.

I was told by revelations that there would be a big earthquake inside Japan, either at the Kii Peninsula(sea earthquake) or at Wakayama, Mie and Nara(inland earthquake). I was told by revelations to do something so that no such big earthquake would actually happen. I have been praying for this last year and this year as well. In the past, New Zealand was hit twice by big earthquakes. I realized that the vision I got actually happened at New Zealand, not in Japan.

Let me explain about it more. I conducted a prayer at Wakayama, before I went up north to Hokkaido, so that no big earthquake would happen. I did this throughout the night and moved from Kyoto to the areas facing the Sea of Japan. The revelation was telling me that this time the disaster would be a terrible one---first, a big earthquake at the Tonankai Area(offshore of the Kii Peninsula, just about the center of Japan) and then it would lead to a big volcanic explosion of the Mt. Fuji. Worse still, all this would lead to an overall cataclysm on a global scale influencing many continental plates and volcanic belts. This is why I conducted prayers and divine activities at the Mt Fuji and the 5 lakes around it. Of course, I did go to the top of Mt. Fuji, too for prayers.

Let me tell you that sometimes a big earthquake takes place at a remote area from the center of the earthquake. It is a system of the nature.For example, the earthquake whose center was at Aichi Prefecture(center of Japan) did happen at remote areas such as Fukushima and Yamagata Prefectures(up north). The history tells us that the explosion at the Mt. Fuji did incur explosions at the Hachijoujima Island(Mt.Hchijou Fuji), far south of Tokyo. We can also recall that the explosion of the Changbai volcano did connect to that at the Towadako Lake(up north Aomori ) in Japan.

These historic happenings tell us that the current earthquake in New Zealand had the possibility of causing a chain reaction, ie, simultaneous earthquakes in Japan(at Tokai, East Nankai and Nankai) , a volcanic explosion of the Mt. Fuji and then a terrible disaster on a global scale as mentioned. This is the revelation I did receive.

But, this time, it happened only in New Zealand, not anywhere else simultaneously. This big earthquake took many lives of people. Though I know that it is very rude to talk about this in this manner, I must tell you that the vision I received was a horrible one. I was conducting many prayers in order not to let such a disaster happen. But, it actually happened. I feel so sorry for what happened and I would like to express my deepest condolences to all the people who suffered from them.

I receive similar revelations almost every day for quite some time. The visions I am seeing are the future a few years or several decades ahead. They are not something suddenly told to me recently. They have been coming to me for years. This is why I am so serious about my and our conducting divine activities to minimize disasters for the last several years.

I have been doing this for 4 to 5 years at least and 10 to 15 years at the most. I have done this at the time of the earthquakes at Kirishima(volcano), Wakayama and Hokkaido. I have tried my best in my divine activities, but sometimes things do not turn out the way I wish. All I am doing is to pray to minimize any disaster that may take place. I have been through with many frustrations in myself for many years and there were some occasions that I could not reveal the contents of the revelations I received in public for many reasons. At the gathering in Aomori last time, I was wondering if I should tell anything about a possible happening in New Zealand in public. And at the gathering in Hokkaido last time, I also refrained from talking about it. I told the people who gathered there that there are something that I can tell and something that I cannot tell.

There are things that I can tell and that I cannot tell beforehand about the natural disasters. This is true in case of my divine activities and also of the revelations I receive. I must tell you that even if I try my best by conducting my/our divine activities, there are many things that I and we cannot prevent from actually happening.

The revelations reach not only the world of the nature but many others including economic/political situations. As for the nuclear power plants, I was told by revelations that many of them are in danger. Among them, Shimane, Fukui(Takahama and Ooi), and Ibaragi(Tokai Daini) are to be named. I visited them in this January and also in this February and did conduct our own prayers. And, very sadly, I got the information from my friend that the nuclear power plant at Takahama(Fukui) caused a major error and the person who was in charge committed a suicide for it. I got the revelation that something would happen there by human mistakes. So I did conduct many prayers so that they would not happen. But, in reality, a person died. He committed a suicide. This news made me quite shocked and discouraged.

As I have told you in our blog before, it is unbearable to see things actually happen, something I have known and told by revelations or in my dreams. I feel so weak and helpless. All the things that I can do may be trivial. I cannot stop things from happening no matter how hard I may pray. And this makes me feel quite down and discouraged. This is why I am asking you for your cooperation, for your concerted prayers with us. Your prayers and cooperation are most needed than ever. When the circle of prayer becomes larger and wider, that is when we can make a better world by trying to avert disasters. What is most important, therefore, is your prayer from the bottom of your hearts. There is nothing more powerful than that.

As for our schedule, let me tell you that we will be gathering in Tokyo on Feb.27, and then move to Nara(the Tamaki Shrine), Shimane(the Izumo Shrine), the Mt.Kannabe(Hyogo) and the Mt. Fuji. After that we will go back to Okinawa on March 3.

In March, there will be a big divine prayer in Okinawa and also in Hokkaido. In April, we will be holding a Gathering of Peace in Okinawa. We welcome your cooperation and assistance. Thank you.

Message from Ms.Angela Babel

Meeting Climate Change

by Melting the Ice in One’s Heart

 

Nowhere on earth is the temperature rising as quickly as it is in Greenland. Since the 1980’s, the average near-surface air temperature has generally increased by three degrees Celsius. In the meantime, the ice has melted so much so, that fire can once again be made with local Greenlandic wood.

 

However, according to the well-known Eskimo Shaman Angaangaq Angakkorsuaq, the ice has actually been increasing someplace else—in the hearts of man. In order to counteract man’s escalating complacency, Angaangaq, together with other Shamans from around the world, held a Fire Ceremony in July of 2009. Photographer Sven Nieder, together with author Angela Babel, documented this special gathering at the northernmost point of the earth in a coffee-table book.

 

“One day, when the world needs it most, the Sacred Fire will return to the people of the high north.” Climate change seems to have made this ancient Greenlandic prophecy come true. Where, for ages, there was only ice, bushes and trees are once again growing. Each and every day, twenty centimeters of the island’s ice melts away. Local animal’s hunting behaviors have been seriously affected. In order to survive, polar bears have actually been eating one another.

 

One hundred twenty global citizens, among them sixteen Shamans and Elders from numerous continents, answered Angaangaq Angakkorsuaq’s call that summer. They traveled thousands of kilometers to the arctic circle in order to be the mediators between nature and mankind, emphasizing the Elders’ message: “Wake up! Become aware! We do not have any more time to lose! Even though the world has never been as connected as it is today, people are growing farther apart from one another and from nature, exhibiting more and more apathy. They simply accept their eventual destruction, even though a second earth does not exist.”

 

“Earthquakes, Tsunamis, hurricanes…our earth is sending us alarm signals because she is sick and needs help! But we turn a deaf ear and look the other way, pretending not to hear or to see,” says Mandaza Augustine Kandemwa from Zimbabwe. There is no longer any doubt that the inhabitants of the earth will have to adapt themselves to new climate conditions. The Amazon Region will eventually disappear due to the ice-melt.

 

Angaangaq is convinced that mankind will only be able to deal with this cataclysm “when we use our knowledge wisely and our hearts and minds come closer together.”

 

As the United Nations Ambassador of Peace, Dr. Jane Goodall also attended the gathering, “We have poisoned the earth. We breathe bad air and eat bad food. Our children are becoming ill,” says the well-known behavioral scientist. Why? “Because we have forgotten the wisdom of the indigenous people; because we have lost our reverence for nature; because we no longer hear its voice; because our hearts are frozen.”

 

Sven Nieder’s photos capture the vast expanse of the Greenlandic landscape. In portraits of the Elders, he documents their deep concern over the earth’s alarming condition. Angela Babel’s text complements the photos with a consolidated and touching description of the course of events during the Shamanic Ceremony. The book comes full circle with a greeting from Angaangaq Angakkorsuaq and an essay from author Dr. Christoph Quarch.

Rica Higa

 

Shaman Rica Higa from Japan is thirty-eight, lives in Okinawa and regularly travels through her home country with her husband, Yoshimaru, also a shaman, to say prayers and hold ceremonies at specifically selected sites.

 

‘With our prayers and our ceremonies, we hope to restore the world to its equilibrium again. We travel to the coasts, to the mountains and the lakes – but mostly, to atomic power stations. The reason for that is that Yoshimaru once had a revelation – that a natural disaster will set off an accident at a nuclear power plant which in turn will have unimaginable political and economic changes in its wake and that these will ultimately lead to a third world war.

 

We pray that this does not happen. We pray so that people wake up and recognise the dangers that they themselves have invoked. We pray to the gods that no disaster might occur. We pray that they might protect us until we are in a position to ward off this danger ourselves. And then we tell of what we experience at ceremonies in other countries and how people on other continents become involved for a restoration of the balance of our world. We are only at the beginning and our audience is growing only slowly. But we believe that we are working for a better world.

 

Many ancient prophecies from our ancestors say that Mother Earth will change. Cold regions, they say, will become tropical areas. If /When these prophecies become reality, the messages from our ancestors can help us to survive the change. So that’s why it’s important to preserve their knowledge. If we will begin to connect with one another, if we attain a greater awareness of the position the world is in and co-operate instead of fighting one another, then we will succeed together in altering this world, our Mother Earth, for the better.’

 

A Gathering of Peace in Okinawa, Japan in April 2011

 (Schedule)

 

April 1(Friday)

April 1, 1945 is the day when the military forces of the United States landed on Okinawa in the area currently called as the Kadena Town and the Yomitanson Village, and started the allout land warfare against Japan. On April 1 this year, a few prayers will go around the sacred areas in the Kadena Town and the Yomitanson Village together for praying. We are sorry to inform you that only a few people can do this and no ordinary people can join it for a reason. It is because we will be praying around, including private houses, and we would not like to cause any big problem to these private houses. Please understand this.

 

April 2(Saturday)

As of today, nothing is decided in details. When we know more about it, we will let you know about it on the blog.

 

April 3(Sunday)

This is the day of the Gathering of Peace.

Place: on the Beach of Toguchi( Sun Marina)

Time: from 9am to 6pm( the time for cleaning the area is between 5 and 6pm)

Performers: Haruko Kuwana(singer), and some local people

 

It will start with a cleaning job of the area for an hour. And, from 10am around, dedications by songs and dances will start by performers. It will be followed by prayers by a few selected people, and ritual prayers for God. Then, the messages of peace from people inside and outside of Japan will be introduced. After everything, around 5pm, we will clean up the area together and end the Gathering.

This Gathering is part of our divine activities. No entry fee is charged. But, if you would like to give us your donation, we will accept it to cover the expenses for the Gathering, such as payments for performers, rental fees for the place, etc. We will accept your donation as a token of your heart.

A Gathering of Peace in Okinawa, Japan on April 3, 2011

We will call for a Gathering of Peace in Okinawa, Japan on April 3.

 

On April 1, 1945, the United States Marine Corps(USMC) and the United States Army landed on Okinawa. USMC reached Yomitan Area and the U.S.Army reached Kadena Area.  

It was a start of a terrible land warfare between the United States of America and Japan in Okinawa. Since then, 66 years have elapsed. Last year, we experienced some undesirable happenings in this area. You may recall the incident happened at the Senkaku Island between China and Japan and the political transaction about this between the two governments. You may also recall the happening at the Korean Peninsula( the sudden attack on the island of South Korea from the North Korean Army). You may also recall the visit of the Russian President on the Northern Island. All of them did influence the political situation in Asia and created a tension in the Area.

We all know what happened. With all this in mind, on April 3 this year, we would like to hold a Gathering of Peace at Toguchi, Yomitanson Village where the USMC and U.S.Army landed a long time ago. This gathering will be for all of us to recall the miseries, mistakes and stupidity of the last war. At the same time, we would like to call for people’s attention so that we can make a better future of peace.

On April 2, one day before the Gathering, we would like to clean up the river(Hijagawa River) to purify the area.

And On April 3, we will introduce many songs, dances and speeches for peace at the stage we build facing the ocean between the rocks.

Please join us for peace.

Thank you.

Inside of each of us is the owl of knowing. It talks to us - guiding us and nurturing us. Often when we get information, it's hard to live by, but it's easy to talk about. It's living the Red Road that counts - Walk the Talk. If we really want freedom in our lives, if we really want to be happy, if we really want to have peace of mind, we must live and model peace in our lives. In this way we each can affect change where we live. May our Creator walk with you and guide you as you go.

Dear Yoshimaru and Rica

 

Thank you very much for your email and information about this inspiring event.

 

I am the woman who drove you to your hotel and to the airport when you were in Copenhagen – I was touched that included me here.

 

My prayer is for us all to connect through our awareness that we are the many faces of the same inner being and that through that we are connected to Earth and all living beings.

 

Wishing you all the best.

 

Best regards from

Anne Christine Hagedorn

I appologize for this taking so long. I have looked at so many ways to find a good way of getting Angaangaq to Okinawa but how ever I look at it it will come to 8000 to 10000 $ just for the flight. This is very expensive, I know, so my hopes of this happening are very small. The problem is of his needing to fly business because of his sensitivities. Usually we still know how to get good deals. But not to Asia.

Much, much love to Rica and Yoshimaru also,

Oona Soleil

Dear friends in Japan,

 

here comes my message:

 

Being born in a country which caused incredible suffering and pain I fully support the Gathering of Peace in Okinawa by my heart and soul. My prayer is: May the infinite divine love be lit like a sacred fire in the hearts of men and women. May it make us aware of our connectedness and may it enlighten our minds with wisdom and care. Blessings to all those who gather in Okinawa on April 3^rd 2011. May your collected energy foster the evolution of a new, peaceful consciousness on Earth.

Why am I going on a Fast?

I have started my “fast” in November 2010. Though, I have to eat once a week to sustain my own life, this is continuing now. My mission, ie, the divine activities and series of prayer around Japan, has to be conveyed to God and this act of going on a fast by my own will is a sign and physical expression of my own intention.

 

What is happening now?

Let me explain about how the system of the nature is working. All beings, including Mother Earth, Gods of the nature, the world of Gods, souls and spirits, and that of us humans, are interacting to each other. Let’s recall the disasters happened last year---Haiti, Chile, China, New Zealand and Sumatera.

Let’s recall those volcanic explosions in New Zealand, Guatemala and Iceland.

They are movements that are set to try to harmonize the environmental changes of the Earth of today. I am doing my own divine activities by foreseeing what will happen and it means that I am seeing those lives being killed and disappearing from the surface of the Earth at the same time. Maybe it is difficult for people to understand what I am feeling. On one hand, I have to accept what are happening with all I have got(my heart, feeling and body itself). On the other, I have to keep doing my own divine activities. My feeling is a complicated one. But, for me, my own divine activities are realities, and they are not something to purify and justify myself. Once I decide to do this, I will have to do it. I have to establish my own system of conducting divine activities, and also I have to contribute to the making of a new future by reflecting what they are now. That is my divine activity. The essence is that I am doing everything so that all the lives will be kept and connected for the next generation. It is simple.

 

The relations between the power of this world and the world of nature, and the explosion of Mt. Kirishima(Kyushu)

There is nothing that is already definitely set for making the future system of the whole of the universe itself. But, let me tell you this. The shape of the world of nature and its intention can change according to the interactions between the power struggles among people, ways of human thinking in relation to the souls and the spirits and that of the world of nature. It is so because the force that wants to get hold of the power and the affluence in this world is actually working in accordance with the world of nature. It has such a huge power and intention. The fact that the volcanic

explosions did take place, at Mt. Kirishima and the rest in the world, only indicates that the world of nature has its own major purpose. Once something moves in the world of nature, it is undeniable that some lives on the Earth are destined to perish. Those lives have nothing to be blamed about. But many lives are destined to be lost due to the “tsunami”(seismic waves), earthquakes and volcanic explosions. Actually, if an volcanic explosion takes place at Mt. Kirishima, it will be succeeded by those at Mt.Aso and Mt.Fuji in Japan. And then, it will be chained and connected to China and the United States. It may also mean that the chain reaction will take place and the large part of northern/ southern hemisphere will be covered by the ashes from the volcanic explosions. I got such a vision, and let me tell you that I had to come a long way to lead myself to continue what I was doing. I was ready to risk my own life for it. Divine activities are that important to keep doing. The explosion at Mt. Kirishima is a result of what we have prayed for years. My thinking is that it happened after Gods in Kyushu and other areas have exchanged their views for some time for a harmony. I came to the mainland on January 9 from Okinawa and I sincerely think that it happened because the system of the divine activities is established at long last. 

 

We should not let a vicious chain reaction take place. Okinawa and the southern hemisphere are connected.

As you can imagine, it would take not so long till the collapse of the world becomes a real one, once it starts. If those volcanoes in the pan-Pacific areas should explode at about the same time as a result of a bad chain reaction, the world will face a catastrophic situation where the most of the surface of the Earth will be covered by the volcanic ashes and shutter the sunshine. If it happens, humans will lose many lives with no doubt. There is more. About 80 to 90 percent of the lives other than us humans on the Earth will perish. The Mother Earth will in no time turn into a place of death. I do not want that happen. That is why I am serious about my own divine activities. My visions are not only volcanic explosions but some others as well. For instance, it is “the water as opposed against the fire”. I was told by a revelation that the purification of the water at the Amami Islands in Okinawa took place in order to pacify volcanic explosions in Australia and South America. Okinawa and the southern hemisphere are closely related and connected. And, the whole world is connected. Next moves are about to happen on a global scale. All the forces of the world of nature, Gods of nature and calculations of humans are interacting. This is not a science fiction or a story of curiosity. This is actually happening. This is what I would like you to know.

 

Why Japan and Okinawa are the prototype of “saviors”?

There is a reason why Japan is called as the prototype of the world and why Okinawa as that of Japan. There is a deep meaning in it. It is related to the system itself. What connects the dots and lines is simply one---“keeping and connecting the lives for the future”. It means the very system of nature and the cycle of life. There are many powers in this world. There are forces that abuse the name of God, and try to manipulate the power. What I mean by “forces” is simply describing the outcries of old tribes and races that are trying to regain power once again. They do not form any actual physical form, and so they exert influence by using people who are actually living today. I can see them. I can also see the hell, too. And, I never cease doing my divine activities. I hope that I am doing my best to make a better future. I am doing my best for this.

 

The process that keeps lives, and the shortage of foods for people

You can see that all the movements, such as the volcanic explosion at Mt. Kirishima and other happenings in the world of nature, are for the making a new system that leads to keep lives for the future. I want you to know that so many lives are being lost in order to make such a new system. I want everyone who thinks his/her own future take what are happening seriously. We will face more economic crises, natural disasters and shortage/crisis of foods for people in the coming future. And one more will join. That is a new unknown virus. Dreadfully, if such a virus should appear, it will affect people by weakening their immunity. It will affect human’s nose, throat and lungs and cause inflammation. That is not all. What I get as a revelation is that the soil itself will be affected by this new virus. The soil itself will be greatly affected in a bad way. There exists many microbes in the soil. The microbes are trying to survive through many major changes of climate. If the soil gets sick and cause mutation of some kind, it is natural that the soil will be in a big trouble like us humans. Then, we won’t be able to produce any crop any more. No agricultural/chemical fertilizer will be effective. Like the case of humans with no effective antibiotics, the case of soils with no effective chemical fertilizer will be a reality. It means the future shortage of foods for people. They are the visions I have been receiving for a long time. I would like to re-direct people for a better future. That is my wish. That is why I am asking people to think the way for survival.

 

The start of a new system, and my going on a fast

I was planning to visit the United States last November, Taiwan last December, China this January, Hawaii this February, Korea this March, Gyam this April and then to the Southeast Asian countries like the Philippines, Viet Nam and Indonesia. I was assisted by many people last year. I got a stronger revelation last year. It told me to build a new system that will be necessary and important at a future crisis. So, I used the money that was donated to us for this purpose. I once was running my own company and I know how it is to run it. This company went bankrupt. So I know what it is. I have been through with many financial difficulties and miseries. This time I am standing on a new ground and I am ready to try to build a new system or should I say, a new defense guard. It took a form of setting-up of a corporation aggregate. But, we have to continue our divine prayers and activities under any circumstance. That is why I started my days of going on a fast. This is one of my own expressions of will to God. I went to Hokkaido(north of Japan) under this condition, and I lost consciousness many times. But, each time, my late mother appeared and made me awake again. I got back to normal and continued my divine activities.

 

What will be our next divine activity?We need your cooperations!

We started our activities from the beginning of this year going from Kyushu to up north to the areas facing the Sea of Japan and then again to the areas facing the Pacific Ocean. It was based on the idea that, if a volcanic explosion takes place at Mt. Kirishima, it should be for the making of the future. We also did pray so that the new virus of any kind would not transform into a worst one. We also prayed so that no big natural disaster would happen. We also prayed so that no abnormal climate change would lead to the shortage of food, so that no big accident would happen at any nuclear power plant in Japan. Yesterday we did pray so that Japan will not be influenced by any political manipulation in China and the Korean Peninsula. We visited as many nuclear power plants as possible for prayers. We are planning to visit other nuclear power plants in the coming February. When we visit any place, we hope that many people come and pray together. This is what we need. We need people’s cooperation. When the wishes of people to make a better world get together and get stronger, it is time that a new good move starts. Please join us!

The Beautiful Eyes of Mother

 

 (video taken on March 4, 2010 at Ikeijima Island, one of the main islands of Okinawa)

 

This elder woman sings a legendary song of Okinawa with her own voice as you see. It is told in a local dialect beautifully. After the song, she thanks Yoshimaru and Rica Higa for their visiting the Island for prayers. She thanks the God for making it possible to build 7 lighthouses in the Island and for bringing happiness for the people who live there. She thanks Yoshimaru and Rica for what they are doing for the world, the country and the people even by going abroad for prayers. She tells that there are many maidens in the service of the Shrine( or sibyls) in the Island. She says that this year of the Tiger(2010), one of 12 signs of the Chinese Zodiac, is a happy year for all. Rica Higa is right there with her thanking this elder woman for her words of gratitude.

What is “personal prayer” or “prayer for individuals”?

My wife and I are always thinking and creating the ways of our prayers. By receiving the visions, we have to think how to conduct our own divine prayers. We are living in the nature daily and so things change according to time. When such changes take place, we do our own prayers in accordance with changes. Now, what is “prayers for individual persons”? When I do this, we can see the “past beings” or the “guardian spirits”. But I do not tell anyone about it. Why don’t I? I don’t tell anyone this because if I do so, it would rather harm people. There was a person who got to know about this from me and abandoned all his efforts to try for himself in life. He thought that his guardian spirit is so great that he himself would not have to make any effort any more. He obviously made a big mistake. It was his illusion. What I think is most important here is to let each individual realize who he/she is and what he/she can do for himself/herself first. How could one realize it? In short, it is up to the person. If he/ she does what is important for himself/herself, then he/she will be able to trust himself/herself and get a great power. As for the “guardian spirit”, it is enough to know its existence. It is enough for anyone to know that there is his/her “guardian spirit”. I repeat. What is most important is the efforts of himself/herself. It is the person who does pave his/her way for the future.

 

The reason of our prayers in mainland Japan, not only in Okinawa

The people in Okinawa were suffering from the shortage of water a long time ago. Before it was returned to Japan in 1972, the cut-off of the water supply was one of the biggest problems in Okinawa. There were tanks for water storage at the roofs at every house in old days. The situation got better after 1972. This is why the people of Okinawa had to resort to the “divine ceremony for water supply”. For example, there was a ceremony to pray in front of fountains. People had to take good care of the fountains in order to get this gift from nature. The fountains are the very source of water and they are very important. Water comes out of fountains after many years through rivers, mountains and forests. The “divine ceremony for water” is dedicated for the maintenance of the cycle of the nature itself.

It seems to me that the natural cycle of water coming all the way from Tibet is going berserk. It means that the balance of nature and recycle of the water is out of balance. So it does not reach all the regions any more. What do you think will happen if all the forests in mainland Japan and Okinawa die and all the trees dried out? It would lead to a disaster. No one will be able to get any fish or sea tangles. It will be so because the nutrition and nourishment coming from the forests and the rivers into the oceans will all stop. People will not be able to capture any herring, sardine or tuna any more. People will be in a big trouble.

The same is true in the case of nuclear power plants. One such plant has about 900 employees. About 5000 people are concerned with the plant including employees themselves, their families and the business dealers. So once you build one nuclear power plant, it will be very difficult to undo it once for all. And, worse still, if a criticality accident should take place, it would damage a huge area more vigorously than that happened in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 by atomic bombings. The whole area will be contaminated by the radioactivity from the accident. This will stay there for millions of years leaving the place as the land of death. People will die of cancer, genetic disorder and whatnot. We are making it a rule to visit all the nuclear power plants in Japan at least 3 times a year in order not let such a misery or an accident happen. The same thing in the case of forests and rivers.

 

What If the Mt. Fuji explodes…?

Japan is being situated in a very delicate area. 4 major plates of the crust of the earth gather around Japan. There is no such country like this. This is why there are many earthquakes in Japan. If the Mt. Fuji should explode, it will be a trigger to start the major change of the nature---the change of Earth’s major crusts. If 3 big explosions take place, they will surely fasten such a big change. So this is why we are doing our major prayers at the Mt. Fuji when we can. This is why we are conducting our divine ceremonies with visitors and friends from outside of Japan.

 

It is the mission of us humans to keep our lives for the next generation.

Our Mother Earth is alive. We humans are its children. It is important, therefore, to let all the living creatures live. Let them live. It may be more true to the fact if we say that we are being lived on the Earth. We have to keep our lives. We have to do it to make a heaven, or a new Earth. We need to keep our lives for the next generation.

 

It is up to you, each person, to change this world.

We are living here daily on this planet Earth. What do we need if we want to change this world? It is up to each action and deed of each person. If you try to change the world, I am sure that it will change. It is not the psychic being that can change the world. It is you, an ordinary person, married or single. Please pray from the bottom of your heart. Pray for the people who you think are important for you. If you do so, it will be a big power eventually. We still have a plenty of time for it. Please do it. I beg you to pray.

A New Year Greeting from Mr. Uwe Friedel
