July 24, 2023 [Greetings] the Ujigami Deities of Takine Town

1. Usa Shrine

Message from the Deity:

There are many who carry various thoughts. But what must be done is singular: to create the framework. No matter who participates or in what form, this truth remains unchanged. Japan has four seasons—this is one of the cosmic principles. It never wavers. While the human world experiences change, the cycles always return. Whether someone is present or not, the time always comes. That is the system. You humans have limited lifespans. Whoever joins is part of this flow. If everyone acts from selfless intention—if each action is a white circle, rooted in compassion for others—then all is well. The tools given to you, such as Amacha (heavenly offering tea) and the Kyūjutei (old longevity pavilion), are provided to help you complete your missions. What matters is not the results, but the sincerity of your process. Think deeply about how to accomplish it. Even among diverse individuals, if they are aboard the Onodera vessel, they must act as one. If someone is not aligned with that purity, they are simply removed. Conflict is inevitable due to differences in roles—but if the act itself is rooted in a pure heart, it is acceptable. Use your tools with full commitment. The more earnestly you use them, the more we will lend our divine hands. Each person must strive toward growth—this is your chance. Let this growth be expressed through selfless actions. Understood? Make this day a fruitful one. Now go forward.

2. Hachiman Shrine

Message from the Deity:

Upon entering this land, a new form has taken shape. I understand well how much effort has been poured into this creation. In this world, some can grasp the spiritual truths while others cannot. Each individual walks their path with differing depths of intention. The word “karma” is simple. But karma means the consequences you yourself have created. Therefore, you must unravel it yourself. Whether family or companions, all are entwined in karma. Only when each person takes full responsibility to resolve their portion can harmony be achieved. Even if only one side makes an effort, it will not last if the other neglects their own. And yet, the sincerity within your prayers—your offerings of devotion—determines how effectively karma can be dissolved. It always comes down to the same truth: how deeply do you feel, and how fully do you act on that feeling? Whether old or young, each lives within the limited time given by karma. Believe in the path you feel is right, and move forward. Even if the outcome is not as expected, if the intent is sincere, the gods will intervene. Spirits also battle in their own realm. Some support their descendants, others drag them down. The growth of spirits depends on their own efforts as well. Remember this: trust in your righteous path, and give it your all. Now proceed.

3. Sugaya Shrine

Message from the Deity:

Thank you. In the human world, until karmic bonds are resolved, discord will persist. In this place, even the homes that were meant to be sanctuaries vanished due to human greed. Illness was brought forth to urge you to return to this site. All of this is part of the divine script. The tools you were given were meant to be used to fulfill your roles. This is a land of conflict—can it be restored as a sacred site? That depends entirely on the intentions of those who dwell and act here. If tainted hearts infiltrate, they cannot walk alongside the gods. Understand this clearly. Use this building as a place not just for trade, but as a sanctuary of life itself. This is not merely a store—it is part of a divine framework. Already, the connection has reached the great universe. It travels at the speed of light. Through meteors, through galaxies—it is already one with the realm of the gods. Therefore, act with purity. Maintain the perspective that all should thrive, and live with this ideal at your core. Use the building accordingly. Create a system where all can survive and live in harmony. This is not about increasing sales—this is about creating a structure to sustain life. Keep both the divine and worldly perspectives in mind, and act accordingly.

4. Suwa Shrine

Message from the Deity:

Thank you for your greetings and offerings. Young people have been added to this place. We always seek those capable of fulfilling their cosmic roles in protecting this planet. We know that among those who join, some will drift away. But that too is part of the design. Focus only on the act of creation. Do not concern yourself with those who fall behind. Those who act from divine alignment must shape the work. Those who do not walk with the divine should not be included. Let not human sympathy lead you astray. Especially those who lead must always adjust their course and move forward. If they do not, others will become lost. Each person must fulfill their role without hesitation. Doubt only leads to entanglement. Always proceed with unwavering belief. The appointed time approaches. Complete this final chapter. Let the vision of the young be realized. The elders must bring the youth’s vision to form—because the future belongs to them. Do not build according to your old ways—build through the eyes of the next generation. Understood? Then, I entrust it to you.
