Gospel of Heaven written and spoken by Mokichi Okada Part 1: Teachings from 4 February 1950 to 1954 People think that our Johrei aims to cure the disease but in fact, it is not only for that purpose. It has a much more significant meaning and I explain it now. In a word, Johrei is the way to bring happiness. Having said just disease, it is, of course, purification and needless to say now, originally elimination action of the spiritual cloud. Furthermore, it is an action to eliminate all kinds of human sufferings.

Gospel of Heaven written and spoken by Mokichi Okada Part 1: Teachings from 4 February 1950 to 1954 In the U.S.A., a new medicine was recently produced, which rapidly and intensely kills tuberculosis bacilli. As all of them are killed when a patient takes this medicine, it is advocated to cure tuberculosis easily. This medicine would be introduced to Japan six months to a year later. However, the effect is still uncertain and it cannot be clearly said to work. As I previously described, tuberculosis is not transmitted but onsets spontaneously. Therefore, it is useless even if the medicine kills tuberculosis bacilli. They onset one after another. The root cause […]

Gospel of Heaven written and spoken by Mokichi Okada Part 1: Teachings from 4 February 1950 to 1954 We say that Sakai-Meshiya-kyo is a religious organisation. The general public would think that it is something unique but must be one of the new religions after all. It is no wonder they think so as an excellent religion like us have never appeared until now. It means that ours are not just a religion which they can understand with the established religious concept. However, we have no choice but to call it Sekai-Meshiya-kyo as no other name is found. Why can we not find any proper name for it? It is […]

Gospel of Heaven written and spoken by Mokichi Okada Part 1: Teachings from 4 February 1950 to 1954 I started to write more than decades ago. The main subject is, of course, religion but I don’t write any formal nor unfashionable things as the founders of religions did so far. I have paid attention that people in any class can understand my writing. However, here is a problem. All teachings of the religions are too religious if you look at them negatively but something mysterious if you look at them positively. For example, the Bible of Christianity, Mantra of Esoteric Buddhism, Tannisho of Shinran, Gobunsho of Nichiren, Mikaguraka of Tenri-kyo, […]

Gospel of Heaven written and spoken by Mokichi Okada Part 1: Teachings from 4 February 1950 to 1954 Recently, Mr Yumiji Hongo wrote about me. I sometimes call a believer “disciple” and he psychologically describes this name in various ways. I found it interesting and write a little about it. Now I mainly act as Komyo-Nyorai. You just think it means I work as one of the ten great disciples of Shaka-Nyorai at the same rank as Shaka-Nyorai and Amida-Nyorai. When I describe me like this, it helps to distinguish those who specialise in Johrei from just believers.

Gospel of Heaven written and spoken by Mokichi Okada Part 1: Teachings from 4 February 1950 to 1954 Everyone knows that the more civilized countries are, the more advanced the legal system is and more letters of the law increase year by year. We would say that the present age is a universal era of law. There are so many regulations that judicial officers and lawyers wouldn’t be able to remember all of them even in their lifetime. Even if they have their hands full just remembering the laws which they are involved with, the effect must be visible quit a lot. However, the main point of the decline in […]

Gospel of Heaven written and spoken by Mokichi Okada Part 1: Teachings from 4 February 1950 to 1954 Signs of disturbance spread thorough the world now. No one doubts that the Third World War is not avoidable. Even so, I don’t think that it starts soon but the situation is not definite yet. Besides, allied countries including the U.S.A. are not well ready for their armies, which are greatly different from that of the Soviet Union. Therefore, they have to gain time. For this reason, they try hard to earn time even a day by a tool of diplomatic measures. As you can see, that is United Nations Conference they […]

Gospel of Heaven written and spoken by Mokichi Okada Part 1: Teachings from 4 February 1950 to 1954 Needless to say now, everything moves on according to the law, that is spirit leads and form follows. All kinds of things and phenomenon first occur in the spiritual world and then they transfer to the present world. In this case, the transfer time certainly differs from phenomenon to phenomenon. It depends on its size, which means that a little incident transfer in a few days at the fastest and a big one transfers in a few years at the latest. However, the transfer time is recently considerably shortened as the World […]

Gospel of Heaven written and spoken by Mokichi Okada Part 1: Teachings from 4 February 1950 to 1954 We are honoured that we can hold the annual grand ceremony of Miroku on 5, 6 and 7 March as usual. It is the first time for us after Sekai-Meshiya-kyo was established. In this sense, I am very moved as I think that this ceremony has a very important meaning. When I recall, I first took part in the work of God on 3 February 1928. It will be the twenty-third year since then. The foundation work has been completed for those years. Now we prepare our organisation for full-scale activity and […]
