March 31, 2024[Sacred Pilgrimage]Hitachi Province: The Line of Light Pilgrimage

1. Kami-sama (the Divine)

Kami-sama:

Good morning.

You have gathered once again.

I also heard the greetings just now and observed your intentions.

There appears to be a considerable gap.

To say “considerable” might be misleading—what I mean is that the gap is utterly immense.

It seems that many in the present world cannot even perceive the sincere devotion of those who are bowing in reverence.

It’s not that they don’t understand—it’s that they’ve forgotten.

You will, in fact, return to the unseen world—what you call the afterlife.

The world after death is a reflection of your actions.

Each of you made a promise before returning to this realm of the living, and yet many have forgotten that agreement.

This current life is meant to be a time of training.

You are meant to be learning.

And yet some still fail to grow, swept about by the world—that too is karma.

Such a gap is not easily closed.

Just how deeply must you bow in order to move forward?

It is also true that many awakened spirits here are desperately striving.

However, those of you at the fringe—the ones still in the realm of the living—are in a more pitiful state.

Be prepared.

We know what fate awaits you when you return to this side.

This environment, this very moment, has all been arranged and given to you by us.

Do you understand just how precious this time is?

This is an incredibly important message.

Humans cannot survive on their own.

We allow you to live.

Whether you believe this or not, the time will come when you realize it.

Even bowing will not save you—soon, even the opportunity to bow will disappear.

This precious time to move forward with your companions, to engage in training—there is no greater joy than this.

Do not forget to care for others.

I have granted permission for today’s practice.

Let it be a time of complete reverence.

No other use of time is acceptable.

Proceed with mindfulness.

Now, begin.

Kami-sama:

Thank you.

To the one at the front, looking straight ahead—

Your intention has been received.

That is why we, the divine, have been moved to act in this way.

You in the living world—your heart is noble.

I accept this role.

From today, I shall participate in all your spiritual practices.

And in the work of connecting the future, we will fulfill our responsibilities and our divine mission.

Until all beings enter the world of learning, we shall continue our duty.

From now on, we move together.

People of the living world—only hearts of goodness shall be acknowledged.

Is that clear?

Those who walk in error shall not be permitted to join the practice.

I declare this now.

From here forward, we entrust ourselves to your continued efforts.

2. Kannon-sama (the Bodhisattva of Compassion)

Kannon-sama:

We’ve been waiting for you.

What a beautiful moment this is.

Receiving your intentions only deepens our desire to fulfill our divine role.

The many Bodhisattvas who have gathered here also share these sentiments.

We offer our utmost cooperation and devotion.

Kannon-sama:

Thank you.

We have received a deep and healing intention from you, a human being.

It is a feeling that brings peace to us.

If it is your teaching, we will accept it.

If it is your gaze, it will surely understand our hearts.

Those who fail to learn will surely err.

However, if one learns without grounding in truth, what is the purpose of that learning?

What is the purpose of such teachings?

A proper teaching must be simple.

The ability to do what is natural, in a natural way—that is what truly matters.

We will gladly take on our role.

We will carry those who are ready to learn, selected from among the many.

We are deeply grateful that an environment has been granted where all who are watching may enter the world of learning.

From this moment, we shall join every practice, selecting those ready to move forward.

We look forward to continuing this journey with you.

3. Kami-sama (the Divine)

Kami-sama:

We have been waiting for you.

A noble intention holds great value.

When such an intention is genuine, the course forward will naturally change.

Good vibrations create good outcomes—this is only natural.

The natural world is built upon mutual care and harmony.

Everything in nature exists because of this interconnected intention.

The natural world was once carefully tended by humans because they held reverence in their hearts.

When that reverence is lost, care and harmony disappear.

Everything is ultimately held accountable to one’s intention.

All actions stem from the intention behind them.

There is nothing more sacred than sincere intention.

You have come to deliver such intention—to carry the heart of compassion for others.

That is what you are learning.

Those at the forefront have passed on their intention, and in response, we deities have moved.

This is the current form.

There is no greater value than the intention to care.

In the end, you will return to the realm of spirit—your place of origin, the world of intention.

That is the only truth.

You need not cloud your mind with unnecessary thoughts.

Just learn.

Now, begin.

Kami-sama:

Thank you.

We have received your sacred intention.

The deities who have gathered here appear to be fully prepared.

The Bodhisattvas as well seem ready.

Shall we proceed under your guidance?

Kami-sama:

Thank you.

Oh spirits, how fortunate you are.

Do you realize this?

Among you, some have now received this offering of prayer and merit—

There are even those who have waited four thousand years for this moment.

You are truly blessed.

Now, I shall give you an opportunity.

It comes only once.

This is a chance that will never come again.

Do you understand?

This world of the living shall now guide you.

Follow where it leads.

We ask for your trust.

Daibutsu-sama (the Great Buddha):

I have received the sacred role.

It brings me joy.

I will now escort all these souls.

Come, let me guide you.

This way, please.

4. Kami-sama (the Divine)

Kami-sama:

Thank you for climbing all the way up here.

You have continually made the effort to come.

We deeply appreciate your devotion.

Now, please carry out this entrusted role with strength and resolve.

Kami-sama:

Thank you.

To bring order to the human heart—this is no easy task.

But if a clear direction is set, people can find their way toward it.

Always establish a goal and provide it.

Sooner or later, all must move toward it, or else they will sink.

Once that is understood, one must discipline oneself and move forward.

Those who stand at the front must always see beyond the forefront.

They must share this vision and inspire each individual to refine themselves and follow.

Those who cannot follow must make their own decisions.

At this stage—at this point in history—it is impossible to bring everyone to the same level, to the same perspective.

Such is the gap between people.

Therefore, what follows should be left to individual responsibility.

That is the true way.

Help others to become independent.

Help them to gain the perspective to choose for themselves.

This is of the utmost importance.

For without that, they will drift in confusion.

That outcome is already certain.

How can we prevent it? There is only one way: foster independence.

Let them decide for themselves.

That is all.

We have made our decision as well.

From this moment, we will join in all spiritual practices.

No matter how many cycles of reincarnation may come, we will carry all beings forward.

I have received this sacred role.

There is no greater joy.

Thank you.

5. Kami-sama (the Divine)

Kami-sama:

Welcome, and thank you for stepping forward to this sacred ground.

I have long awaited this moment.

The fact that this time has come, and that you are able to be here, is deeply meaningful.

However, it also marks the moment when this destined time has arrived.

The current time in which you dwell—this "realm of the living"—is the same time shared by many spirit-beings who now bow deeply here.

Yet for those in the physical world, time is finite.

It is a preordained time, a time granted by the Divine.

This time is not meant for pleasure alone.

It is the time for the growth of your own soul.

Do you understand?

A life that does not lead to soul growth is ultimately meaningless.

Even those who have been given the chance to grow, if they fall from grace of their own accord, that is known as self-inflicted karma.

Those who are earnestly striving, disciplining themselves, and walking the path of ascetic hardship—that too is their responsibility.

And it is an effort to raise their own motivation.

Everything is a result of one’s own choices.

Live in a way that allows you to take full responsibility for your life.

The world ahead will only become more severe.

And those who cannot think of others in such a world will not be thought of by others in return.

Those who never offer compassion cannot expect to receive any.

Walk a path that refines your soul.

That is what this lifetime is for.

It is sacred time.

It is a precious gift.

So, make use of this finite time you’ve been granted—carry out your role with purpose.

I humbly ask this of you.

Kami-sama:

Thank you.

This is how people of this planet were originally meant to be.

Especially those of this nation were once like this.

It is time to return to that original form.

That is your goal, is it not?

Then fix your sights there, and move forward without doubt.

Now, I shall take on my role.

Together with all the deities who have gathered here today, we will join every spiritual practice from this moment on.

We shall begin with those who are able to move.

All spirits who are watching, even if they must endure countless cycles of rebirth, they know it well—

Even so, we vow to carry out our sacred duty until every one of them enters the world of learning.

Let us move forward together.

We thank you deeply.

6. Kami-sama (the Divine)

Kami-sama:

We have been waiting for you.

Thank you for coming.

Now, you have entered another world.

From this point forward, the path toward a compassionate future has been set.

Please carry out your role with mindfulness and heart.

I entrust it to you.

Kami-sama:

Please make full use of us.

Many deities, and many spirits who bow deeply, are gathered here.

We ask you to handle all of these thoughts with care.

Kami-sama:

Thank you.

The course of events has changed through human intention.

The righteous intention and proper perspective of the people have moved these many deities, and a new track has been laid.

The movement has already shifted.

Please rest assured.

The physical world—this realm of the living—is but the final tier.

Already, those in the upper realms have begun to act.

Bringing order to the human world, this final layer, is the last phase.

All involved—please hold dear the sacred intention of caring for one another.

If you do, the direction forward will surely shift.

In this brief time remaining, I ask that you each give your utmost effort.

Now, I too will fulfill my role.

From this moment, I will participate in every practice and carry those who are able to move.

It is nothing but a joy for all beings to enter the world of learning.

Toward that end, we shall continue to act with full devotion until the very end.

Thank you for today.

Let us go forward together.

7. Kannon-sama (the Bodhisattva of Compassion)

Kannon-sama:

How wonderful it is that there are still those in the physical world who can speak on our behalf.

Today, few are able to do so.

Originally, it was the role of the monks to speak for us.

But now, we find ourselves without monks who can truly teach the way.

That is why people have become lost.

In the past, when people suffered, there were always monks who would reach out their hands.

That is no longer the case.

And so, people have become disfigured—spiritually disfigured.

They see only through the lens of self.

And when they die in that state, they descend in awareness and pass away with only that distortion.

They wander in that ugliness.

Those who die with such self-centered eyes will be trapped in those same perspectives:

“I regret this… I want that…”

They can only wander, burdened by those thoughts.

Listen carefully.

Every one of you, without exception, will eventually return to our side.

While you are still alive, consider this carefully.

Learn to think of others.

That is the noblest practice you can take.

I have been waiting for you.

Now, to you—please fulfill your sacred duty.

I have delivered this message.

Thank you.

Kannon-sama:

Yes, thank you.

I have received your heartfelt intention.

Those who drag others down will inevitably be dragged down themselves.

What you do will always return to you—this is truth.

Never forget it.

Those who think of others will surely be thought of in return.

What you put out into the world will come back to you in kind.

It is a simple truth.

Thinking of others is not difficult.

Please engage with others with the intention of uplifting everyone.

I have been entrusted with a sacred duty.

I will ensure that all beings may enter the world of learning.

From today forward, I will participate in all spiritual practices.

Please continue to walk this path with me.

Let us work together.

8. Kami-sama (the Divine)

Kami-sama:

I have been waiting for you.

Thank you for stepping onto this sacred ground.

At last, the connections are being made.

And yet, I see that you have brought with you many others.

Under ordinary circumstances, I would not have granted permission for this.

But because of your heartfelt intention—your sincere desire to protect this planet—I ask that you proceed with this spiritual practice.

I leave it to your hands.

Thank you for your efforts.

Kami-sama:

Thank you.

I have received your heartfelt intention.

It is because of the Dragon Tribe that this planet exists.

In order to restore this planet, we had to reconnect with the Dragons.

And now, that connection has been made.

You have entered the world of the Light Line.

The Divine Ones and Bodhisattvas have already made their preparations.

Please lead the way.

I entrust this to you.

Kannon-sama:

I have received the sacred duty.

Please guide all of these beings.

Kami-sama:

You have done well.

This sacred time has arrived in this beautiful form.

It marks a turning point in the time of the living world.

Let there be no conflict from here forward—let it end in peace.

(Thank you.)

Please lead them well. (Yes.)

So many spirit-beings are here.

Treat them with great care. (Yes.)

Kannon-sama:

I have received the sacred duty.

I shall now guide all of these beings.

Please, all of you, come this way.

Kami-sama:

I have fulfilled my sacred duty.

There is no greater moment than this.

Thank you.

Four ceremonial claps.

Thank you again.

Closing Ceremony

Kami-sama (the Divine)

You have done well.

Today, we were once again able to share this sacred and important time together.

And now, reflect deeply on how significant this time truly is.

What just transpired was a spiritual practice far beyond the capacity of ordinary human awareness—embracing both the visible and the invisible participants.

This planet now enters a time in which it must fulfill a great spiritual role.

That time is what we call the future.

All things have now begun to move toward that direction.

Today was also the time when sacred covenants were made.

Because of this, various disruptions will occur in the world of human affairs.

But those divine covenants have been sealed and will move forward.

This is indeed a blessed time.

Well done.

Let us all cherish this planet together.

Kannon-sama (the Bodhisattva of Compassion)

And from us as well—

We are filled with joy from witnessing how many spirits were able to ascend today.

Because you stepped onto this sacred ground, we were able to receive your intention and fulfill our divine roles.

We are overflowing with gratitude.

Thank you.

Let us continue to walk this sacred path together, in divine service.

We are with you.

Mitama-sama (The Spirit Beings)

Likewise, thank you for allowing us to serve with you today.

We were able to elevate many souls once again.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Final Meeting Before Departure

Kami-sama (the Divine)

Thank you.

We are deeply grateful.

Whether they could join directly or not, we rejoice that so many were able to move together today.

There is still time—time permitted for learning, time allowed for growth.

Everyone, please advance with all your might.

Each one of you must strive toward your own individual growth.

This is not a race against others.

Rather, it is a path of uplifting oneself, each and every one of you.

You have many companions on this journey.

Trust in them.

Support one another.

That is how it was meant to be.

We are watching over you.

But whether we reach out our hand to assist—that depends entirely on you.

If someone thinks only of themselves, we cannot extend our hand.

But if someone truly, sincerely thinks of others, then we shall raise our hand in support.

And right now, the desire to extend that helping hand is stronger than ever.

Please continue your efforts.

May you move forward with all your strength, helping to build a brighter future.

Thank you for your greetings today, and for walking this path together.

We are deeply grateful.
