Tips for becoming a person who shines

[If something is happening to you, your soul is moving in the right direction. I posted a video on YouTube titled “I will show you how to understand your soul’s mission and make your life easier.”

Then, someone asked in the comment section, “Is being alone an opportunity to let out some light?”  Although the details are not clear from this comment alone, it seems that the situation is “I broke up with the person I was with and became alone.” Why were you alone? Were you forced to break up with me due to negative energy?  Did you become alone with the support of positive energy? I don’t know. I don’t know what the reason is, but no matter how strong the negative energy is, you will always have the opportunity to emit light, and there are people who are waiting for it, and if you can do it? Can’t you? All you have to do is focus on one important point. I will explain this story because it may be helpful for everyone.

By the way, starting tomorrow, a 2-night, 3-day Shinkiko Retreat seminar will begin at Mt. Fuji in Yamanashi. Some people who have attend Shinkiko Retreat seminar many times may have noticed this. In addition to receiving a lot of Shinkiko, you will recite the “Words of Vow” in various situations, and adjust your mind to gather positive energy. There are 11 vows in total: the vow to wake up, the vow to nourish, and the vow to sleep. Can you guess what common words appear most frequently in 10 of them? It is “now”.

“Now I am…” “From now on, I am…” etc. How do you feel about yourself “now”? about it. Even if you dwell on past failures and regrets, time will not turn back. It means focusing on how to face the present moment while drawing on past experiences. Put aside your past, no matter how negative, and focus on yourself now. On the other hand, even if you are caught up in anxiety, worry, and expectations about the future, nothing you can do now will change. It is important to understand that the future is created by our own actions and to build on the present.

Especially from the point of view of Ki, if you treat even seemingly bad events as a learning experience and make a decision to increase your Ki, your negative Ki will gradually turn into a positive one, and by accumulating these efforts, you will be able to support the positive Ki. As you become more receptive to it, the positive energy you emit like light will move you in a positive direction, making you happy and making those around you happy as well.  So let’s take care of the present.

Let’s reflect on ourselves based on the indicators for Mind Purification (cleansing our minds).

Yesterday’s news reported that looking at the highest temperatures across the country, 63 locations had temperatures of 35 degrees or higher, the highest number in 2024, and the hottest place in Shizuoka City was Suruga Ward, at 39.3 degrees, the highest in recorded history.   It’s between the rainy seasons, so what will happen in midsummer? Everyone, please be careful of heat stroke.

When it gets hot, even if you don’t suffer from heat stroke, you may feel sluggish, unable to move as you want, or find it difficult to do anything, and although you are not sick, you are more likely to experience negative changes in your body and mind. Currently, my wife and I are at odds over the temperature of the room in our home, where our son is the main character (he has been having diarrhea for 2-3 days). My wife said, “I’m sweating, so please try to cool me down,” and I said, “I think I’m a bit cold,” but after consulting with the doctor at the hospital, I finally calmed down and realized that my wife was right.

By the way, last week, the week before last, and in this newsletter, we explained the “indicators for Mind Purification (cleansing our mind), and in Shinkiko Retreat seminar, we broadly divide the state of mind into the following two types. — “Mind that attracts positive energy(Ki)” – be strong, be cheerful, be righteous, be humble, abandon avarice, maintain harmonious friendship, live in gratitude(gratefulness), “Mind that may attract negative energy(Ki)” – hatred, Jealousy, jaundice, envy, curse, anger, dissatisfaction, complaint, doubt, bewilderment, anxiety, worry(anxiety), blame(reproach), irritation, impatience(restlessness).

Depending on your state of mind, you will be more likely to receive support from positive energy or be influenced by negative energy, so be careful of your state of mind. That’s not all.

Your current self may already be influenced by the positive or negative Ki that you attracted due to your past state of mind, and you may be more susceptible to such a state of mind. We are already influenced by positive and negative energy, so at the end of the day, it is important to deeply reflect on the state of your mind.  

For example, did you have an irritated mind?  If so, why should I be annoyed?  Did something happen?  Have you ever been irritated by something similar in the past?  Are there any other causes of irritation or tendencies that are unique to you?  Are there people in your family or ancestors who are easily irritated?  And so on, please think like this deeper and deeper.

Negative energy is always waiting for an opportunity, and by creating a negative mind, you may attract even more negative energy.  So, when you receive Shinkiko, you focus on those negative feelings so that Shinkiko reaches there. At the same time, we strive to avoid falling into the trap of negative energy.
