Creator of the Universe (1)

What I was most interested in (mystery & wonder) when I was in junior high school, were invisible things, electricity, radio waves, and magnets. The universe, matter, and human beings are composed of atoms, and there are many spaces between atoms, so there is no reality. What uses these atoms to shape and control this world? What is a human? What controls humans?

What is self (consciousness)? What is the inner man?

Is there a limit to the universe, what is happening outside the universe, and is there another universe?
This made me emotionally unstable. There cannot be anything in front of you where there is nothing.

Outside where you are now, is not there anything?

Perhaps this universe is part of any material, and we are like its atoms.

I was thinking about that, and I felt like I was talking about something stupid without listening to anyone. The only one who was a priest of a temple called Meigetsu-in, a distant relative, who was a science teacher (forgot his name) listened to me, so I often visited the temple to talk about space, human-being, etc.

When I heard about the Big Bang at school, I immediately felt weird. It was a space that exploded and expanded into the universe. It’s a lie, an explosion can’t happen in the absence of anything. I do not think anyone thinks it’s strange. I didn’t believe it and still don’t believe it even now.

I thought more scared about the reality of myself where I am in a world of nothing.
Now I am feeling the same and try not to think about it. When thinking further, I try to have the concept of God (the God of Creation) in my mind

One day, when I found a space book in the library and read it, the theory that the universe was formed by exploding of the fluctuation of atoms, so what is the fluctuation, where is it, and why is it?
There is something (fluctuation) where there is nothing. Mysterious and scary. It is a logical failure.
However, he concluded that the universe is nothing and that the author would have to think about the existence of God.

Today, many scientists advocate that the universe was born by the Big Bang 13.8 billion years ago. (The big bang theory)
It is an estimate of the result of the observation of the universe, but it cannot be seen further that an initial period.
But several scientists are starting to say it’s weird and theoretically should not happen.
They say nothing comes from nothing. I began to think that it was created by the God.
Now, science has entered the realm of quantum mechanics, and research has materialized. We are approaching the realm of God.

Then how do we imagine the God?

Since it is impossible to think of the Creator, it seems that the only way to think about it is to trace from this universe and us human beings who were created. Can we get there by examining ourselves, or is it in us and integrated?

What was the god’s purpose of creating this universe?

It also depicts in the Old Testament Genesis (Day 1-7).

Genesis 1
Day 1. In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
Day2. Now the earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep.
  God’s Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.

What was there before day 1?

I don’t think human’s science can find the truth of the universe forever.
How does an extraterrestrial, more evolving inhabitant understand this universe?
If I meet one by some chance, I hope to learn from the one the truth of the universe.

Recommend you to practice Health Taijiquan

The Taijiquan population is increasing, probably because it reflects the health boom and the aging society, or people come to know the pleasure to move and heal the mind in an era of abundance and luxury.

Originally, I think that Taijiquan has become popular in China as one of the medicines and treatments, and from the history of fighting to protect oneself. In Japan, it probably evolved from health methods such as health improvement and “Qigong” (breathing method). This is that Japanese people are good at it.

The “Japan Health Taijiquan Association Saitama Branch Member Mutual Exchange Meeting” was held on June 23 at the Saitama City West Gymnasium, with about 800 participants.

*Mr. Susumu Yan, the chairman of the Japan Health Taijiquan Association, at Saitama Branch member mutual exchange meeting (center of the photo to the right)

It has been 52 years since Mr. Yang Ming-Shi generalized it in Japan. The traditional “Chinese version of Yang-style Taijiquan” has been transformed into “Japanese version of Yang-style Taijiquan.” Saitama Prefecture has about 3,500 members. I heard that there are 35 branches nationwide.

The basic simplified Taijiquan 24 is Chinese style. When I met Chinese people in Malaysia some day and was invited by the Taijiquan exercise group early in the morning, it was exactly the same as Taijiquan except for a few fast movements. There are many people in their 50s and 60s. Also, if you continue Taijiquan for the rest of your life, you can keep yourself always in good health.

It is a “moving meditation” and is the best way to maintain physical and mental balance. It is good even after illness and it also prevents you from getting sick. I often hear people say that it is good for fall prevention, good for long distance hiking, and for good bowel movements.

Recent Taijiquan books come with a DVD to practice, so you can practice at home. However, if possible, it would be best if we could get some “spirit” from someone of friends in the cool green outdoors.

When I am practicing alone in the hotel garden during my trip, the number of friends will increase. However, it seems that “ Any3 Taichi” and Hachidan-Kin (the Baduanjin) are easier to remember than the 24th style.

Mr. K is grateful for me since I taught him Yang-style Taijiquan, from April, has improved his autonomic imbalance. It was the result of combining “Walking Zen” and “Zazen” with him. *Zen: Zen Buddhism.

Prophecies for the future and letters of visitors from the future world

The first part was posted on November 5, 2016, as one of my blogs for Japanese and there were many subscribers, which was entered Best 5 in that.

Some posts are hit, and some are not.

This English post is a compilation on the articles of the following four persons, prophets and people from the future.

Quote: from the followings,
Craig Hamilton UK psychic (over 70% hit rate, 2018 edition)
・ Future people from 2062 (2010 remarks)
・ Mr. Philip, a military time traveler from 2075
Added Joseph Tetel’s latest prophecy (mainly 2-3 years from 2020)

*This post is a translation from the Japanese version of the Suchitoo’s blog.
https://suchitoo.exblog.jp

After 2021

・ The EU flag will be revised, and a star mark like the one on the US flag will be added to the corner of the flag, forming the European Union Army.

・ China plunges into recession due to economic collapse, angry people start protests, but this is not a revolution that overthrows the administration (a part of democratization).

・ World War III lasts 3.5 years.
・ In 2025, SpaceX’s rocket will realize manned flight to Mars.
・ Domination by digital currency:
China is closest to the darkest forces and is trying to dominate all digital currencies around the world. It has already begun. This is not like Bitcoin. Bitcoin will eventually plummet. From now on, please use cash as much as possible.

・ Water concession and control:
Water prices soar in the United States, China and Japan.
Water will have the same value as gold.
Groundwater is polluted due to oil leaks from pipelines and fracture (hydraulic fracturing). As a result, rivers and water will run out in the United States, China, and Japan.
A company like “Nestle” will establish a subsidiary to pump water and sell it in bottles.
Control people by using the water resources of the land that the government has taken away since it becomes difficult to use due to fires etc.

About the arrival of the tribulation and the need to raise the spirit:
From 2025 to 2032, cataclysms will occur on Earth.
In July 2025, the Earth’s pole shift will begin rapidly. Everything heats up; the glaciers melt down and wash away everything. Super-large earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions occur.

・ Edgar Cayce and others predicted that California would fall apart and sink into the ocean after a major earthquake. In such a situation, money is completely useless. Rather, it makes no sense.

After 2030 

・ Completion of sarcophagus at Fukushima nuclear power plant-in 2030
・ The Northern Territories (four islands) and Takeshima (island in the sea of Japan) are Japanese territory.
・ Emigration order issued to residents of the Republic of Kiribati.
・ Amazon forests disappear
・ Japan shifts from fishing to aquaculture.
・ Causes of abnormal weather-not only due to global warming, but also due to any other multiple factors.

After 2062

・ English has become the official language of the world, but it is not a universal language. Works well in all languages. This will be understood within 10 years (The prophecy was in 2010, so is it now?). Are you learning English steadily? It doesn’t a matter at all. English itself (in 2062) is not important and native language is sufficient.

・ No country is in conflict with Japan.
・ The Japanese flag has not changed from current the Hinomaru (rising sun flag).
・ The capital of Japan remains “Tokyo”.
・ The number of prefectures in Japan is 53 as of 2062 (47 as of 2021).
・ The division of Japan is divided by state and divided into prefectures.
・ Japan has not been invaded by China, China has disappeared long time ago, and the emperor system continues.
・ The emperor system continues to be male.
・ Japanese troops are stationed in the newly acquired territory (Self-Defense Forces do not exist).
・ The only Yokosuka base remains in Japan as a US military base.
・ The Japanese army owns about 120 aircraft carriers and about 50 airborne aircraft carriers (I forgot its details).
・ All domestic weapons such as laser guns and plasma cannons are domestically produced.
・ The pension system is continuing, and although you can get a pension, you will have a big problem (I don’t know how to explain, but you should avoid relying on a pension).
・ Long-term care insurance is functioning.

・ It is important to maintain a connection with the spirit guide, to be in the best possible condition, and to love yourself first, regardless of whether you are an angel or whatever. After that, it is most important to meet others. From now on, it will be necessary to create a sacred place in your own house, such as a temple, meditate, and connect with a spirit guide. It may be the tribulation in the Bible. The world population will decrease to one-third.

*From the editor: Thank you for reading. I hope the toddler in the photo to have a world where he can spend his time with peace of mind.

Ms. Yasuko Nanba (climber) and Mt. Everest

*Quote source image: Reprinted from the image of promotion photo for movie “EVEREST”

Ms. Yasuko Nanba succeeded in climbing Mt. Everest on May 10, 1996, but the following day, she died in bad weather during the descent. I learned this from the movie “EVEREST”.

I only saw the sunrise from the EVEREST observation deck on the outskirts of Kathmandu, Nepal, but she was longing for climbing the highest peak in the world.

I wanted to have the heart of a mountaineer, who bet on it, but I couldn’t, however I have respect and admiration for her mountaineering life. When asked “Why climb?”, The answer is (because there is a mountain) and Ms. Nanba’s answer is (because it is the 7th highest challenge on the 7 continents of the world). I was impressed by the words such as “if not it will become a sin.”

For more information for her, please visit following Wikipedia site: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yasuko_Namba

Many mountaineers are climbing with the support of sponsors, but Ms. Nanba was a “salary woman mountaineer” and she worked hard for her own expense. I also feel her splendour there.

The impression of watching the movie is an inspiring movie, which has a three-dimensional effect and power, and it is a wonderful image to worry that the cameraman of this movie was more severe than the actor who plays the role of a mountaineer. There were many wonderful scenes in the film.

Also, because it was a publicly recruited mountaineering team in New Zealand and the United States, all conversations were in English.  The communications technologies are well fully in use, and I was impressed by that the contacts with the base camp, and the conversations between the families and the climbers. Those made me cry while watching.  It was a true story, and a very good movie.

Japanese Holidays and Religious events

There are no religious holidays, among Japanese public holidays. Customarily by making religious holidays or changing the wording, there are seasonal holidays (Vernal Equinox Day, Autumnal Equinox Day) and Obon(welcoming the spirits of our ancestors)holidays. In some countries, religious holidays are set by the Constitution.

For example, in Thailand, Buddhist holidays are the second most common holidays following the royal holidays. Christmas holidays do not exist in Japanese private companies. However, if it is a foreign-affiliated company or a company with many foreign workers, there may be no problem even if you introduce Christmas holiday.

*New Year’s Day, posted “A Happy New Year!” in Japanese at the gate of a temple in Kawasaki, Japan

Non-religious people and mere social customs-oriented people enjoy both Japanese public holidays and Christian celebrations. It is said that they also saw Christmas trees at temples.

Recently, in Japan, there are many consecutive holidays for leisure (due to transfer holidays and holiday movements for this purpose). These are for tourists, for family gatherings and for those who are having comfortable lifestyle. However, the pattern of school days and the traditional rule of public facilities closing on Mondays is breaking down now.

*The Christmas season at the Lilia hall in Kawaguchi-city, Japan

Let me say a few harsh words here.

The majority of Japanese are nominal Buddhists, but the celebration of Buddha’s birth (April 8 in Japan and day of May in lunar calendar in Thailand) is no longer being celebrated in temples and public places.

On the other hand, the Christmas tree that celebrates the birth of Christ can be seen in general shopping streets, private homes, kindergartens, halls, bars and drinking places, etc. That is why Japan is a mysterious country.

Christmas gifts for children with dreams are the great gifts next to birthday gifts.   Those are just material commercialism and have nothing to do with religious events.

On the streets of Sri Lanka, monuments of many religions, including Jesus Christ and the Buddha, are erected everywhere. There was a religious competition here. I have no doubt that the believers of the sect should hold doctrinal rituals from the heart, including the ancestors, and become commercials.

The background for these things seems to be problems in home and school education, and even in Japanese politics and religious world.


About Poor, Dvesha, Folly, in Buddhism

Of all the worldly desires, the root of desire is the kleshas. It confuses my heart and causes suffering as a result. It is said that there are 108 kleshas in particular. The three main ones are poverty, dvesha and folly.

<Poverty> is greed and devour. It’s all about seeking selfishness and greed. <Dvesha or Moha> is anger. It is selfishness, hatred, and resentment. <Folly or Slut> is ignorance. It’s not just ignorance, it’s suffering from mental angry without knowing the teachings of Buddhism. It is also interpreted as stupidly (complaint).

Buddha taught that the hearts of these three poisons should be purified and calmed down and that they should enter into a feeling of peace. I am also Japanese who is impatient. In Thailand, it is often called “Chaien, Chaien”, in other words, it means that you should be keeping calm, thinking slowly without getting angry and active. Even so, it is doubtful that Thais know that it is not good for losing promises of time. The wrath of merciful justice is allowed. Also, Japan is full of commodity and essential goods for a living. And moneymaking and monetary universalism are rampant. I know that a woman in Africa recently taught us “mottainai.”

It is also good to live with these poverty, dvesha and folly as the norm of life compliance.

* The morale is the teaching of 10 good deeds, which is the opposite of bad deeds.

・ Body; kill, steal, indecent

・ Mouth; lie, bad mouth, double tongue (both tongues), good words

・ Meaning; Poor, Dvesha, Folly

The combination of spicy Thai curry and noodles make the best flavor

First, let’s talk about curry noodles. For the first time in Japan (Tokyo), businessman Min Pun Yaspar opened a Thai restaurant. She has been an advisor to the Thai Culture Study Group for many years. At a social gathering party, she introduced me to “Curry Noodles” (Quiteiogen Curry) from among the many Thai food menus. I ordered it specially when I was in Thailand and ate it, but the “curry noodles” made by Mr. Min was the best taste.

The spicy the curry, the sweeter the noodles (thin noodles are better) will give it just the right taste. In Japan, there is curry rice or rice curry, using rice is a standard item. It is one of the dishes that has been made into Japan now, but it seems that Java curry, Indian curry, Thai curry, etc. originally landed in Japan and the taste of curry unique to the store (each family’s own) was created. It is now a national dish of Japan.

The second noodle story is that there are many types of noodles in Thailand. There will be more than 10 types. First of all, the thickness is large, medium and small, and there are differences in the ingredients of the staple food (rice flour, wheat flour), and in the way of cooking and eating. Of course, there is also ramen (Chinese noodle Bammi). Rice flour (Quiteiyo) and wheat flour Bammi can be cold or warm, and the ingredients can be bean sprouts, fish dumplings, shrimp, or meat.

I love soy sauce flavored pack shoyu. It’s yakisoba (baked noodle), so thick noodles are good, and the pack (vegetables), noodles, and soy sauce (shoyu) dishes are the best.

*Chinese noodle Bammi!

The splendor and negative legacy of Thailand (people)

Information on Thailand is now easily available in Japan. However, the coverage of the incident and the unique tourism of the area are mainly unique research themes.

It seems that the purpose and hope of those who move to Thailand outside of work are often from a human point of view. In Buddhism, it’s like “fate,” and in Christianity, it’s like “encounter.”

I have a Buddhist connection and have already studied Thailand (in Thailand) for more than 20 years. Recently, I haven’t been able to stay for a long time, so I’m having difficulty to learn than before, but I’m able to do it for some reasons. Therefore, I would like to mention about some advantages and disadvantages.

The characteristics and advantages of Buddhism are self-interest and altruism. Helping people in need (the interests of others *) is common in Theravada Buddhist country Thailand. In Japan, there are still few donations and donations to temples due to distrust of each other. The Dan family (a parishioner) system is also in the way. There are welfare corporations such as the Japanese Red Cross Society, but it seems that rich people do not give out money or human resources. Tambun, which is an act of daily merit in Thailand, is a wonderful act.

* The act of giving benefits to others is no longer a characteristic of Mahayana Buddhism.

Thai police and troops are common at checkpoints. I don’t see any that kind cooperation in Japan, probably because of the vertically divided administration. The Self-Defense Forces were also active in the Great East Japan Earthquake, but it looks like only hard work. However, it is Thailand that the police receive a bribes but the military does not receive s bribes. Bribes to civil servants are absolutely unacceptable in Japan.

Should they learn from Japan or from the West? The hope of Asian students is to get a job after returning to Japan. Even in Japan and Thailand, which basically do not allow immigrants, it is difficult to obtain a permanent resident visa due to overpopulation. From such as circumstances, excellent young people do not come to Japan very often, and exchanges are limited to short-term ones. It may be the same that there are few young people in Japan who go to study abroad in Asia.

The Japanese prefer group action in groups, but the Thais are individualistic and rich in individuality. Meals are basically eaten individually anytime, anywhere, and of course, even in groups, but quiet. Also, Thai people who are quite self-assertive even if they are children have a lot of dreams. It’s just a free idea that changes often. Basically, it is important not to get angry and to respect the other person (honor, personality).

Other negative heritage includes the military government from 2014, the issue of the Royal system of King Rama X, the VISA system (if Japan becomes stricter, the Thai side will also become stricter), mutual benefit equality (commercial affairs) agreement, each other. I feel a lack of understanding education and etc. It seems that the Thai side is super-enthusiastic.

Naturally ripe bananas are sweet, and the chips made of it are the best

August 7th is Banana Day; In the history of bananas in Japan, it used to be a luxury item, but now it has become a common food. However, I’ve heard that nowadays, blue bananas are taken and steamed with gas in the shipping vessels.

It seems that it will be shipped after expecting it to ripen by the time it hits the market.

In banana-producing countries, it keeps growing all year round, and the number of stocks increases, so the only one tree is enough to keep from hungry.

It is a super cheap fruit in the tropics with banana trees.

In addition to eating, the leaves can also be used as roof tiles or walls for simple sheds. Since the trunk contains a lot of water, it can be used as food for pigs, and when it dries, it can be used as a building material for houses.

And if you ripen it on a tree, you can’t put it on the market, but this is the sweetest and most delicious, bees and ants come to eat. And if you eat it with coconut milk, you can’t stop it anymore.

A typical example of the banana as a preserved food is “banana chips (fried)”. Great for sake (Japanese wine) snacks. If you use good oil for cooking it, the taste will more improve. Whether you fry it at home or buy it at a store, it’s also super cheap.

An example of this story was a banana tree in the garden of my country house in Chiang-Rai, northern Thailand, and a mountain tribe village living on the outskirts of the village.

@ Digression 1; There are many other ways to use bananas in Thailand. Eating grilled buckwheat with banana fruit is also nutritious.

@ Digression 2; I have heard locally that Japanese immigrants to South America used bananas for pickles. * The banana in the photo is a huge banana that is more than three times as large as a normal banana, and it was surprisingly large even for Thai people. I wish I had a comparative photo.

Aspects of Japan and Asia where a heart break with each election

I have lived in Japan for many years and have paid taxes and exercised my right to vote. However, in the 21st century, it is often disappointing to see cases and accidents that are not accepted by the world community, as well as claims and opinions.

I take pride in being “international-oriented”. You can’t change your face, but you can change your personality and way of thinking. The United States and Europe have strongly formed Western culture in white-centered societies and have influenced the world. On the other hand, there are areas that should be native and black-dominated, such as Africa, South America, and yellow-race Asia, which have been colonized for many years.

Why there is no change of government policy in response to the will of Okinawan voters if they say No. against the Henoko U.S. New military base, in the basic democratic election.

That’s probably because Japan lost the war and is still in the American colonial basement. Even in the Myanmar elections, even if a democratic group wins in a military coup, it is regarded as an opposition force and killed. There is a business Japanese government that can do nothing to outrageousness situation. (It is not a citizen!)

I don’t want to think that it is the same Japanese who choose such people (Politicians).

Although the priority is “life” in the corona situation, there are also economically difficult individual restaurants, but restaurants and taverns of major chains have changed places, contents and jobs offered, and dismissed non-regular employees, can survive.

Japan seems to have dropped out of the world top-ranked nations in terms of politics, economy and culture. It seems that the reason why excellent human resources are not utilized is that they do not form the body of a democratic nation and that dignity is not utilized in individual consciousness.

It’s good to learn from the West or China and it’s also good to learn from historians, inventors and philosophers.

However, it is the worst to use military power and money power to push authority right through.

I am amazed at the actions and claims of Myanmar, Thailand, China, North Korea and Russia.
