We are interpreting the Ofudesaki

I attended a lecture, and the lecturer said that the Ofudesaki is truly remarkable because there are many ways to interpret each verse. I respectfully disagree with that statement, because these words in the Ofudesaki are from God. Each verse has … Continue reading

What is the purpose of our prayer?

私の解釈は何でしょうか?私たちが祐気詰め(ゆうきづめ)を行うとき、私たちは自分が何を祈っているのかよく分かっていません。私たちは、この特別な祈りで神様に何をお願いしているのかを尋ねたり、確かめたりする必要があります。 多くの人は、自分の埃や悪い考えを取り除いてもらうことで、自分自身を救うために祈っていると思っています。しかし、御ふでさきでは、神様はこの特別な祈りは他の人の心を清めるためにあると教えてくださっています。 神様が私たちの祈りを受け入れると、神様は人々が魂を理解し、体の中で魂が何をしているのかを知る手助けとして、病気を導きとして置かれます。魂を理解すると、私たちは心を清めることができます。心が清まれば、人は救われます。喜びと健康は、自分自身の魂から生まれるのです。 What is my interpretation? We when we perform the Youki-tsume do not know what we are praying for. We must inquire or find out what we are asking God to do with this special prayer. Most of … Continue reading
