Bringing good energy in the cherry blossom season

Spring is in full bloom again, and the cherry blossom season has come. There is a famous cherry blossom viewing spot nearby, so the population density around the station increases dramatically during this season. This year, there seem to be many people visiting from abroad, and I am surprised at how popular the cherry blossoms are. Everyone will be soothed by the positive energy of the cherry blossoms.

Master Tatsumura, who teaches yoga in our retreat seminar, teaches us about the interaction of “Ki” with trees. Trees, plants, and all living things, including us humans, have “Ki”, a life energy.

In the case of cherry blossoms, perhaps they are deeply influenced by the emotions that Japanese people have had since ancient times. The joy of spring, the melancholy of the fleeting petals, the hope for new beginnings… these may resonate with the “Ki” of cherry blossoms and give us a special healing power.

“By directing your feelings, you become more likely to receive Ki” – this is a very important point when it comes to taking in good “Ki”. By being captivated by the beauty of the cherry blossoms and having a heart that is genuinely moved by them, you will be able to feel the positive energy of the cherry blossoms more strongly.

Conversely, if you are caught up in negative emotions such as dissatisfaction or anger, you will be more likely to attract negative “Ki,” and if you are already strongly influenced by negative “Ki,” you will be more likely to resonate with similar bad “Ki.”

Therefore, it is important to always be in a state of mind where you are in tune with positive Ki, and to receive Shinkiko to raise your own “Ki.”  In particular, during this time of year when you will have many new encounters and learning opportunities, it is recommended that you have warm feelings towards others. The pure desire to do something for someone, to help someone in need, will in itself generate strong positive Ki. This will first raise your own “Ki,” which will gradually spread to those around you. Being conscious of “sending good Ki” will in the end attract good things to yourself.

Just as we are captivated by the beauty of cherry blossoms, it would be good if we could be conscious of treating those around us with kindness and generosity in our daily lives. These small actions will first warm our own hearts and fill them with comfortable “Ki.” Then, that “Ki” will surely spread to the hearts of those around us, creating peaceful connections.

Open your hearts to the beautiful cherry blossoms and extend warm feelings to the people around you. By doing so, our own “Ki” will increase, and we will be able to welcome a more fulfilling spring.

Smiles and “Ki” in the elevator

The other day, we were in an elevator together. While the adults were standing there quietly, my son, who will soon be one and a half years old, suddenly started yelling “Ah, ah” loudly. I thought there might be a bit of awkwardness, but everyone around us was smiling and watching over our son. The atmosphere instantly became more relaxed, and I breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, I once again realized the existence of an invisible energy called “atmosphere.” Atmosphere is a kind of “Ki” that cannot be measured by science. We are always living under the influence of this atmosphere, both in a good and bad way.

For example, in a sad atmosphere such as a funeral, you will feel sad and tearful. In situations where you have to “perform a certain way,” such as a presentation, everyone has probably experienced being overwhelmed by the oppressive atmosphere caused by tension and pressure, and not being able to perform to your full potential. On the other hand, in a bright and lively place, you can naturally feel uplifted and your creativity can be stimulated.

When we are surrounded by bright, positive energy, we naturally smile and feel positive, but when we are influenced by dark, negative energy, our spirits can become depressed and we may not be able to demonstrate our true potential.


The important thing is to always continue to send out positive energy without being swayed by the atmosphere around you. To do this, you need to develop a strong mind that will not be defeated by negative energy, and to raise your own energy so that you are not swallowed up by the atmosphere around you.

It is also important to consciously make efforts to cultivate a joyful mind in your daily life. For example, listening to your favorite music, admiring beautiful scenery, and talking with like-minded friends can all help to increase your mental energy.

Also, remembering to be grateful and always trying to use positive words is also an effective way to radiate good energy. Expressing gratitude for even small things can help improve relationships with the people around you and create a better atmosphere.

Also, if you find that you are easily overwhelmed by the atmosphere and are unable to perform to your full potential, it is possible that your past self or your ancestors were strongly influenced by negative energy, so it would be a good idea to focus your attention on this and receive Shinkiko.

We who have access to Shinkiko at all times can use it effectively in our daily lives, consciously emitting good Ki, and living each day filled with positive energy.

Shinkiko Retreat seminar, a treasure trove of mysterious connections and discoveries

Today, the Shinkiko Retreat seminar began in Soja City, Okayama Prefecture. The first time it was held here was over ten years ago, and it is held every other year, so I have been here five times already. However, I had never been interested in the somewhat unusual place name Soja. So this time, I decided to look into it.

It said, “The origin of the shrine is Soja-gu Shrine, which was built at the end of the Heian Period. In order to avoid the inconvenience of having to make pilgrimages to shrines throughout Bitchu Province, the gods of 324 shrines were enshrined here.” As with Ise in Mie in January and Dazaifu in Fukuoka last month, there was a shrine near the venue this time as well, so I felt a renewed connection with the gods, and was amazed that so many gods could be enshrined here.

By the way, Shinkiko Retreat seminar is a place where people who participate are drawn together by a mysterious connection, as if they were drawn by a magnet. This year marks the 399th time the course has been held, exactly 35 years in the past, and what I have come to realize over the years is that “here awaits you, an invaluable experience and learning that you could never have obtained on your own.”

When people come together, various realizations and discoveries are born. This doesn’t only happen when the teacher speaks, but also when surprising words are hidden in casual conversations between participants, and someone’s gestures can convey deep emotions that cannot be expressed in words.

For example, a past experience shared by one participant may provide a clue to solving a problem that another participant had, and a question posed by another participant may become an opportunity to deepen the understanding of all participants. Valuable learning can also be found in the casual conversations that take place during breaks and meal times during seminar.

The energy of Shinkiko changes negative Ki into positive Ki, and I believe this is the result of the support of all the positive Ki that has changed us up until now.

Since the time of our predecessor, our retreat seminar have placed importance on group living, and it is for exactly this reason.

By spending time together, learning together, and experiencing together, participants build deep relationships of trust, and become people who support and improve each other. They are friends who use the energy of the universe, Shinkiko, in themselves and around themselves (that is, on this earth) to change the Ki environment.

The time spent with friends who have come together through a mysterious bond is an irreplaceable treasure. I believe that the bond that the gods of the shrine have created is also a major factor here. What kind of seminar will it be? I’m looking forward to it this time as well.

Proverbs and Ki (81) Let’s have a relaxed mind and gather good Ki

The other day, two of the three elevators were undergoing maintenance, and there was a long line for the remaining one. It took a long time for people to get in, and some people’s faces showed signs of frustration. At that moment, the proverb “haste makes waste” suddenly came to mind. Feeling hasty can lead to carelessness and unexpected mistakes. This proverb is said  to have been around since the mid-Edo period, and people in the past, just like people today, were always careful to avoid a hasty mind.

Whether it’s waiting in line at the store or your computer is running slowly, we are always faced with a feeling of urgency.

Behind this urgency lies a “negative energy” that works to hinder us and make us fail. Negative energy makes our minds restless and invites carelessness.

For example, when we are in a hurry, we can’t find things or we trip on the stairs… This is because negative energy is taking away our concentration and making us distracted. Also, when we are in a hurry, we can’t see the situation around us and can cause trouble for others.

Negative Ki controls our minds and prevents us from exerting our true potential, but if we are aware of it and are conscious of it, we can minimize the effects of negative Ki and make it easier to receive support from positive Ki.

So, when do we create a rushed mind?

For me, it seems like the dangerous times are when I’m pressed for time on the train or somewhere else, when a deadline is approaching at work, or when I have a lot to plan and feel anxious. And to minimize this as much as possible, I have come up with and tried out my own countermeasures, such as prioritizing my work and making plans.

Also, when you start to feel rushed, it’s important to take a deep breath and calm your mind. Also, remember the saying “haste makes waste” and try to act without rushing.

It’s also effective to consciously create time to relax in your daily life. For example, getting up a little earlier in the morning to make time to relax, or taking advantage of the Shinkiko time in the evening to use more Hi Genki and take in more Ki into your mind and body, which will help keep negative Ki away. By becoming aware of our hectic mind and changing our connection with negative energy, we become more susceptible to receiving support from positive energy, and as a result, we can live calmer and more fulfilling lives.

Even if you’re tired, just do it!

When I’m tired but still have something to do, I (funny enough) try to stay away from our couch. When I sit on the couch, it’s as if time has stopped and I can’t move, and then I don’t want to do anything.

Medically speaking, this can be said to be a natural reaction in which the parasympathetic nervous system becomes dominant and the mind and body enter a rest mode. However, in the back of my mind, I still have thoughts like “I have to do this” and “I want to finish this,” so I can’t simply leave it to my body’s desires. Because of the negative energy effects that I always talk about, when there is something that needs to be done, the key to truly recovering from fatigue is to take the plunge and get it done first. From a Ki perspective, it is recommended that you get into the habit of finishing what you need to do and then taking a rest.

Invisible “negative energy” exists around us, and whenever it sees an opportunity, it tries to hinder our actions. Especially when you feel “tired,” you are already under the influence of negative energy. The reason why we can’t take in action even when we want to do something can be thought of as the work of this negative energy. At times like this, by resisting negative energy and acting with strong will, we can bounce back from its influence and increase our “ki energy.” In other words, action is power. Therefore, if you postpone taking in action, you are giving more and more opportunities for negative energy to take advantage of you. By starting with what you can and taking in action little by little, you will be able to keep away negative energy and make it easier to receive support from positive energy. Furthermore, the energy of Shinkiko reduces the influence of negative Ki, so it is important to receive Ki on a regular basis.

Large plate B5 type released instead of thin large plate

We have YouTube live with Mr. and Mrs. Oharada every Thursday from 7:30pm, and yesterday we talked about our ancestors. Shinkiko is energy from the universe and has the property of increasing the energy of our soul. Through this, our bodies, consciousness, and minds naturally change for the better. As you deepen your knowledge of this true light, you will also become more aware of your ancestors.

This is because Ki energy exists not only in people living with physical bodies, but also in our ancestors who have lost their bodies, and when the energy of Shinkiko permeates there, the consciousness of the ancestors changes, the things they are able to do increase, and the things that happen around us change for the better.

I recommend two ways to send Ki to someone who has already passed away: 1) imagine the person you want to send Ki to while receiving Ki, and 2) use the energy gathered in Ki goods, such as high-end equipment or plates.

Up until now, many people have used Ki goods such as the Shinkiko large plate and thin large plate, which have the SAS triple mark etched into a stainless steel plate. When I engrave the name of the person to whom I wish to send energy, the energy will be sent automatically.

This thin large plate uses a thin plate of 0.2 mm, so I engraved it and then laminated it before selling it, and once the plate was engraved, it was not possible to make additional engravings when the number of family members increased.

Recently, we learned that the amount of energy relayed on various objects could be increased by introducing laser engraving technology, and we wanted to use it for this large plate as well. Similar thick plates can be sold at lower prices than large plates.

Laser engraving of the SAS triple mark is the same as the HG pin type, so we have a proven track record with many people reporting their experiences. The entire surface of one side is engraved with the SAS triple mark, and the other side is a handwritten address space. Compared to the large A4 size plate, the B5 size plate has limited space for the address, and the laser engraving of the pyramid mark can only be done on one side, where the address can be written(Large A4 size plates can be used on both sides).

First of all, if you don’t have the budget for a large plate, but would like to send strong energy to your ancestors, we recommend this large plate B5 type.

We are also accepting laser engravings of the pyramid mark on large plates for the spring equinox. Laser engraving has been shown to increase the energy that enters you (1) above, increasing the effectiveness of remote Shinkiko, so if you haven’t done so yet, please give it a try.

Live a richer life with an honest mind

The ward office has a children’s playground, so my wife often takes our son there. Today, my family and I ate lunch at the ward office cafeteria. I brought my son some udon noodle  so I let him eat it, and we had soba and a set meal.

When I put the food I ordered in the tray and bring it to the table where the two of us were sitting, my son exclaimed with joy. Are you tired of eating udon noodle? You don’t have to express much joy over something like this…but to put it bluntly, you can express a lot of emotions. I’m a little embarrassed because people around me are watching me. It seems like you don’t feed him delicious food on a daily basis…

By the way, as you become an adult, it becomes difficult to be as honest as you were when you were a child. In our daily lives, we are exposed to the opinions of others, the experiences of failure in our relationships with others, the influence of negative energy, and many other factors that make it difficult for us to maintain an honest heart.

Our predecessor often said, “Honestness leads to innocence,” and he had the innocence of a child. When I look at children, I see that they don’t have complex thoughts or emotions like adults, but are completely honest with themselves and absorbed in what’s in front of them.

Having such an honest mind will also reduce the influence of evil energy, which has a seemingly negative effect on our mind and body. When we can move our bodies honestly with our hearts, our Ki naturally increases. Furthermore, it becomes easier to receive support from the positive energy that protects us like a guardian spirit.

Maintaining an honest mind is never easy, but it is important to practice it in your daily life, even if it’s just a little at a time.  For example, 1. “Listening to others without preconceptions” → We tend to make judgments based on our own thoughts and experiences. Furthermore, 2. “Frankly admit your mistakes” → We tend to think that we are right, and it is difficult to admit it. Also, 3. “Express your feelings of gratitude in words” → Even if you understand this, it is difficult for those close to you.

It’s good to start with these little things. It’s a challenge for me too.  An innocent and honest mind brings us many good things. It will enrich not only your physical and mental health, but also your relationships, work, and life itself. Please try practicing an honest heart in your life.

Let’s say more positive words

Recently, my son has been saying “ah” when he sees a train or an ambulance, “uh, uh” when he points to something he wants to grab, and “ooh” and “ah” when he sees something that looks delicious. The other day, I happened to look up and saw that he had taken out all the tissue paper from the box, scattered it all over the place, and was saying “aaaaaaaa” (the ending of the sentence drops). I guess he remembers me saying that when he’s doing something wrong. However, “aaaaaa” is a negative word. I always explain that the words that come out of your mouth have energy, and that negative words attract negative energy, so this is a great reflection on me.

I think everyone has experienced this: “I’m tired,” “I can’t do it anymore,” “I can’t keep up,” and so on and so forth. When I’m tired or something unpleasant happens, negative words tend to come out of my mouth.

Negative words that attract negative energy are like a curse, corroding our minds and bodies and robbing us of our ability to take action. On the other hand, positive words that attract positive energy give us courage and hope, as if by magic, and increase our ability to take action. Since you are already under the influence of negative energy, you may end up saying negative words and attracting even more negative energy.

In order to cut off negative words, it is important to first become aware of your own words. Sometimes people around me will tell me indirectly, like me. And even just realizing, “Oh, I said something negative again,” can drastically change your mindset. This is the same as dieting, and it starts with understanding your current situation.

Once you are aware of your words, the next step is to practice converting them into positive words.

For example, “I’m tired” → “Good job”, “I can’t do it anymore” → “I’m starting now”, etc. can be changed with a little effort. You may feel some resistance at first, but if you keep doing it consciously, positive words will naturally come out of your mouth.

Some people may think, “That’s just escaping reality.” Indeed, it is dangerous to avoid seeing the bad parts of reality. From a Ki perspective, it means facing reality and thinking about how to move forward from there in order to keep negative Ki away. It is important to use negative words as a springboard to find ways to improve and increase your ability to take action.

Words have a huge impact on our thoughts, feelings, and actions. “Say more positive words” and receive the support of positive energy to brighten your future!

Negative energy that makes you just spend your time in a daze

In our homes these days, we can’t easily put things anywhere. Now that my son can reach the top of the table, he picks it up and uses it as a plaything. He is particularly interested in smartphones because he knows that we use them on a daily basis. So if he wants to get his hands on one, he’ll have to keep messing around with it and end up in trouble. The other day, my smartphones got locked, and before I knew it, it stopped working.

It’s hard because he seems to have a never-ending interest in smartphones, and even when he receives a call during the day, he’s always yelling at me to let him touch it.

By the way, there seems to be a term in the world called smartphone addiction, and the number of people who can’t let go of their smartphones and keep staring at them seems to be increasing. According to one survey, 21.8% of people use it for an average of 4 hours or more a day, and almost half of them use it at night. It seems like it’s because it’s time to relax, but you need to be careful as people who are feeling stressed tend to binge on it.

The autonomic nervous system has two parts: the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system, which can be compared to the accelerator and brake of a car. When you exercise or get excited, the sympathetic nervous system increases, while when you are relaxed, the parasympathetic nervous system increases. My nerves are starting to get high. It is said that when this cycle is disrupted, it can lead to a number of problems, such as not being able to sleep at night, feeling groggy during the day, and feeling that your mind and body are not feeling well.

When a person is stressed, first the sympathetic nervous system increases, the parasympathetic nervous system decreases, and then both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems decrease. To put it simply, this means that you are lethargic and unresponsive, your body doesn’t switch on, and you just spend your time in a daze. In other words, this behavior is similar to simply continuing to take in the information that is given to us, just as we continue to browse the Internet.

I believe that this state of lethargy and unresponsiveness is a state in which one’s own will is weakened and one is strongly influenced by negative energy. Especially if what you are looking at on the internet is dark news, articles, or information that is full of negative energy, your energy will move from high to low, which means that your energy will drop more and more. It will be.

Therefore, if you notice that you are spending your time not only on your smartphone but also in your daily life, take it as a sign of stress, change your mind as soon as possible, and take in Shinkiko with the intention of taking a proper rest. I think so.

We held Shinkiko retreat seminar in Ise

Until yesterday, I was holding a Shinkiko retreat seminar in a wonderful environment adjacent to the Ise Jingu(shurine) forest. Thank you very much for your participation. There were many people who had been practicing Shinkiko for a long time, so I received a lot of “Ki” and it was a very good experience for me.

I always say that “Ki is an energy that cannot be captured by science.” Our mind and body are closely related to this “Ki”, and it has a great influence on our thoughts, emotions, and actions. For example, when you are happy, your mind and body feel lighter, and when you are sad, you feel heavier. This is because your state of mind changes the state of your “Ki,” which in turn affects your body.

Our will, thoughts, and heart also emit Ki, and when we are able to act according to our own will, the “Ki” in our bodies, which can also be called our souls, increases, but when we are forced to do so involuntarily, “Ki” increases. The spirit will drop.

Therefore, an individual’s free will is very important, and if that person’s will is not respected due to some kind of external pressure such as authority, the light of the soul will become small, and if the body is lost, it will be in a dark state, that is, a negative state. It makes me angry.

If we look back at history, people have long struggled for freedom. People’s freedoms have been taken away through war, political oppression, religious coercion, and even in their immediate relationships. As a result, there are many souls that have become negative energy.

However, people never gave up and little by little, they gained their freedom. Through this, painful and sad souls receive light and work to support us.

Shinkiko light is an energy that brightens the souls of such people and supports them to live a free life. There are no special teachings or rituals in Shinkiko. The important thing is to connect with the energy of the universe and let your own inner light shine.

There was a time when our predecessor(my father) considered turning Shinkiko into a religion, but in the end, we decided to make it a corporation based on the idea of ​​valuing freedom. This is based on the philosophy that Shinkiko is not something that can be forced on anyone, but rather is something that each individual can freely accept.

All life on Earth is directed by someone who can be called the God of the creation of the universe, based on free will, in a direction that will lead to harmony with the universe. Shinkiko light is the energy that supports this.

Japan needs to change even more, and when I look at the world, I feel like we have entered a very important era. I think it was very meaningful that we were able to hold Shinkiko retreat seminar in Ise at the beginning of 2025.
