The 9/11 Terror as Part of Armageddon?



THE NATIONAL ART CENTER, MINATO WARD, TOKYO



The 9/11 Terror as Part of Armageddon?

(Du 11 septembre de la terreur en tant que Partie de l'Armageddon)



It seems true, in my personal view, that the late architect Mr. Kisho Kurokawa got into politics challenging his old friend, Tokyo Governor Mr. Shintaro Ishihara, since the architect in black had met again a few years earlier with a Russian lady he had first fallen in love with decades ago when he was a student visiting Moscow for some conference…



SECTION I: “'Only the Jews' were capable of destroying the World Trade Center”

------
Recently, I read an interview with Sheik Muhammad Gemeaha -- who was not only the representative in the United States of the prominent Cairo center of Islamic learning, al-Azhar University, but also imam of the Islamic Cultural Center of New York City. The sheik, who until recently lived in Manhattan on the Upper West Side, explained that ''only the Jews'' were capable of destroying the World Trade Center and added that ''if it became known to the American people, they would have done to Jews what Hitler did.''

This sentiment will be familiar to anyone who has been watching the news or reading the papers. In Kuwait, there were reports that New York rabbis told their followers to take their money out of the stock market before Sept. 11; in Egypt, the Mossad was blamed for the attack. It is easy talk to dismiss as madness, I suppose, but because so many millions of Muslims seem to believe it, and because airplanes actually did crash into the World Trade Center, words have a different weight and menace than they had before…

Everybody looks like having started to abuse the mad and cruel act of false-heroism Mohammed Atta, an Egyptian most probably critically influenced by the Death of Princess Diana with her Egyptian boy friend had conducted on September 11, 2001.

Some Muslims living on anti-Israel propaganda started to ascribe the Terror to Israel and the Bush Administration, which seems to have been joined by the Mafia and failing intelligence communities in the world, including the one under the Chinese Communist Party.

The Bush Administration itself leveraged the situation to lead US citizens and voters to the military invasion of Iraq, which truly looked like a long dream of President Mr. George W. Bush and his close friends in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait for their personal cause.

One proof that Israelites have nothing to do with the 9/11 Terror may find in the following, though very theologically.

-------
This is because Jews believed that adherents of other faiths could find their own path to God. Christianity and Islam, which cast unbelievers as infidels, did not share this essential religious relativism. The rabbinic interpretation of monotheism, which in seeing all human beings as created in God's image recognized their inherent equality, may well contain the seeds of the very democratic principles that the terrorists of Sept. 11 found so intolerable.

SECTION II: “The Rothschilds banking empire is a shadow of a once great banking empire”


-------
Resolved Question
Why does Israel own the USA via the Federal Reserve?

The principal shareholders of the Federal Reserve include: Rothschild Banks of England and Berlin; Warburg Banks of Hamburg and Amsterdam; Laz ard Brothers Banks of Paris; Israel Moses Seiff Banks of Italy; Chase Manhattan Bank of New York; Lehman Brothers of New York; Kuhn, Loeb of New York; and Goldman, Sachs of New York.

What a lot of nonsense,

Check the facts for yourself

- There is no structure or mechanism for private ownership of the Board of Governors which heads the Federal Reserve System. The governors are forbidden by law from having any financial interest in a private bank and most have never worked in a private bank.

The Federal Reserve branches require their members to buy for which they receive a standard 6% dividend. But since the vast majority of banking in America is by american banks, there is very little foreign ownership.

Regardless real power of the Fed, the ability to control monetary policy, is the responsibility of the Board of Governors. (Ref: http://www.federalreserve.gov/generalinf... )

- The Bank of England was nationalized in 1946. It is a government institution. There are no shareholders. (Ref: http://www.bankofengland.co.uk/about/his... )

- There is no Bank of Berlin

- The Rothschilds banking empire is a shadow of a once great banking empire. Most of their banks have been closed a long time ago (ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rothschilds and
http://www.answers.com/topic/rothschild-...

- The Warburgs were forced out of banking in Europe due to the rise in anti-semitism. From wikipedia: " Virtually all members of the Warburg family had fled to the United States or Great Britain by 1938." (ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warburg_fam...

- In the biography of Israel Moses Seiff, there is no mention of being involved in banking (ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_Sief...

Look these up for yourself. I think you'll only find that these age-old zionis banking conspiracy at fringe web sites.

It is truly a big surprise if any of henchmen of the Rothschild clan has been spending big money to fuel the promotion of the 9/11 Conspiracy Theory, for example, with the intention of making the Bilderbarg group look disproportionally powerful.

But, if any of henchmen of the Rothschild clan had been involved or accountable for the Death of Princess Diana with her Egyptian boyfriend, which must have influenced Mohammed Atta and other Muslims engaged in the 9/11 Terror, it could be really possible.

It is a small world for super-rich people in Europe, so that distinguished families such as Rothschild must have more influence than the figures indicating their financial share in the global money market would mathematically suggest.

Take a look at the EEE Report on April 4, 2008, focused on Barrick Gold Company linking Prince Charles, Mr. Adnan Khashoggi, Mr. George H.W. Bush, and Nathaniel Rothschild all together.



SECTION III: “A pro-Western regime that is anti-Israel in orientation still remains a target of militant Islam”


----
The response of militant Islam to this situation is to seek the overthrow of pro-Western regimes in the Islamic world and to campaign for the elimination of Western power and influence from the Middle East entirely. In the seventh century, the first Islamic state arose on the ruins of the two great empires of that era: the Byzantine Empire and the Persian Empire. With the collapse of the Soviet Union, defeat of the U.S. becomes the next logical struggle. It is not surprising that the handwritten document of terrorist ringleader Muhammad Atta states: "Remember the battle of the Prophet...against the infidels, as he went on building the Islamic state." Thus, the organizing principle of militant Islam is anti-Americanism; a pro-Western regime that is anti-Israel in orientation still remains a target of militant Islam…

If the Palestinian issue were a high priority for bin Laden, then efforts to mobilize Palestinian militants and establish a widespread presence in the territories would have been far more extensive. Instead, the bin Laden network largely reflects the concerns of an Afghan-based organization with strong links to Pakistan; hence, its involvement in the Indian subcontinent, the former Muslim republics of the Soviet Union, and strategic points around the Arabian peninsula, especially Yemen.


http://www.jcpa.org/jl/vp463.htm
---

The above analysis was carried out on October 1, 2001, the imminence of which really drove the thinker to pursue the most reasonable and effective conclusion from his highly pressured quest of the mind and intention of Mr. Osama bin Laden who had ordered the terror attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, rather from his unique personal grudge on some Americans, in my humble view.

Thus, as no Muslims seem to share with Mr. Osama bin Laden the same degree of personal grudge on any Americans with a necessary means and money, there will be no another 9/11 Terror on America.


SECTION IV: “Around 2020, the global economy will find its destined course”

A Japanese author wrote in his Japanese book dealing with super-rich and super-influential people in the world:
------
(As a hedge fund controlled by a Rothschild contributed to the merger of two giants in the global steel industry, Arcelor and Mittal,) the Rothschild clan is probably playing a certain major role behind the scene of European economy…

(As one of participants in the recent Bilderberg conference said,) the Age of Unipolar Rule by the U.S. has ended. Around 2020, the global economy will find its destined course.


( http://amesei.exblog.jp/ )
------

Maybe, Armageddon will put an end to any sort of these speculations around 2024.

It is because the world has become so money-oriented while abusing and leveraging every tragedy, such as the Princess Diana’s Death, the Deaths of JFK and JFK Jr., and the 9/11 Terror, without paying full and very due attention awfully to the Wrath of God…



(Some Japanese critics say that ruling parties will lose in a by-election for a Lower House seat of the Japanese Parliament to be voted for next week or so.

Others say that the LDP, bureaucrats of the Japanese Government, and the super-rich people of Japan have formidable strength at the bottom, so that the Oppositions will lose.

However, as long as Democracy wins with whichever winner, I feel no imminent internal and domestic threat to Japan.

Otherwise, it will be difficult for Japan to keep its position and status in the world while being forced to stand strongly against the U.S. and China sometimes.

And, while the Japanese version of Buddhism is a hopeful candidate for the future religious mainstream in the world after Armageddon, no Japanese can be so far qualified to lead the world beyond it.

That is why, folks and Mlles., I suppose, the God ordered me to write EEE Report to the world believes, including you.

[And I have recalled that the more gracefully conservative a woman is, the more she believes...])

The Era of Armageddon from 1984 to 2024?







The Era of Armageddon from 1984 to 2024?

(L'ère de l'Armageddon de 1984 - 2024)




Last night, I found the moon looking dim over a cloud. Indeed, a humbly twinkling red star in the north sky just above a lane I was walking on was then the only visible star all over the night sky. Then after, when I looked back to the north sky to confirm the red star still visible, I saw the star becoming brighter and more flickering, as if moving. A moment later my surprise was subdued, since it was an airplane just flying up while passing the red star as if checking me walking down south on the ground. A miracle in the night of spring or not?


SECTION I: “JAP!”

Japanese people know that non-nonsense Americans or non-foolish Americans never say “Jap!” to Japanese.

Resolved Question:
What is the definition of a jewish american princess?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Jewish American Princess or JAP (not to be confused with the ethnic slur directed towards people of Japanese nationality) originally refers to Jewish women with privileged backgrounds in the United States. It can be taken and meant as an ethno-religious and/or sexist stereotype or slur.

The word characterizes a stereotype about young women who have been spoiled by material wealth and overbearing parenting to the point that they are self-absorbed, pampered, high-maintenance, whiny, materialistic, and snobby. Since the slur reflects a phenomenon that is not limited to Jewish families, it has also been extended to other ethnic groups. In the American Northeast, it is frequently used as a religiously neutral term to describe any affluent, free-spending suburban woman.

...The notion is that many who are raised in the affluent environments have lost any sense of continuity with their hardworking parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents. To a lesser extent, the term has been co-opted by some Jewish women as a term of affection or identity.

SECTION II: “Would you like Atomic bombs to attack your country?”

Now, some Japanese anti-nuclear-weapons advocates based on Hiroshima are traveling in the U.S. to appeal to American citizens for supporting an idea of abolishing nuclear weapons, though they do not seem successful at all.

------
Resolved Question:
I know, My country (Japan) was "bad" during WWII (Mainly because of our government) but this doesn't mean that Americans need to say offensive and evil things to me.

Americans have said some evil things about the Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Would you like Atomic bombs to attack your country?...

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Americans are fearful of Asian cultures. The languages seem impossible (remember, Americans aren't big readers) and the systems so different. The US is the only country in the world to drop a class A bomb on anyone. That's not a thing to brag about. I used to live in Japan. The Japanese today learned a LOT from WWII. The Americans learned nothing. I guess if people say bad things to you, just remember -- they don't know who their congress people are but the know Mayor McCheese. Don't lower yourself to their level.

SECTION III: “I am not anti Jewish.....I am anti Zionist”

Some critics in Japan say that the U.S. is killing more people in Iraq than Chinese troops are now doing in Tibet. But, I like to focus on Israel without whose contribution to avoiding the US War on Iraq the War really began, even though it is too apparent and obvious to everybody, since Israel was attacked by Iraq launching Scud missiles in the Persian Gulf War.

------
Resolved Question:
How much does the US give Israel in aid.?:

How could that money be put to better use in the USA. Schools, medical clinics for the poor, infrastructure are just a few things this money could be used for. Instead we are supporting a currupt country that is raining terror and mayhem
on the palistinian population who are the rightfull people of the country of palestine. I am not anti Jewish.....I am anti Zionist…

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker
There are at least three ways in which aid to Israel is different from that of any other country. First, since 1982, U.S. aid to Israel has been transferred in one lump sum at the beginning of each fiscal year, which immediately begins to collect interest in U.S. banks. Aid that goes to other countries is disbursed throughout the year in quarterly installments.

Second, Israel is not required to account for specific purchases…

A third difference is the sheer amount of aid the U.S. gives to Israel, unparalleled in the history of U.S. foreign policy… In other words, Israel, a country of approximately 6 million people, is currently receiving more U.S. aid than all of Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean combined when you take out Egypt and Colombia...

The total amount of direct U.S. aid to Israel has been constant, at around $3 billion (usually 60% military and 40% economic) per year for the last quarter century...

In addition to nearly $3 billion in direct aid, Israel usually gets another $3 billion or so in indirect aid: military support from the defense budget, forgiven loans, and special grants. While some of the indirect aid is difficult to measure precisely, it is safe to say that Israelÿs total aid (direct and indirect) amounts to at least five billion dollars annually…

According to the American-Israeli Cooperative Enterprise (AICE), from 1949-2001 the U.S. has given Israel a total of $94,966,300,000. The direct and indirect aid from this year should put the total U.S. aid to Israel since 1949 at over one hundred billion dollars. What is not widely known, however, is that most of this aid violates American laws. The Arms Export Control Act stipulates that US-supplied weapons be used only for "legitimate self-defense."

...To understand why the U.S. spends this much money funding the brutal repression of a colonized people, it is necessary to examine the benefits for weapons manufacturers and, particularly, the role that Israel plays in the expansion and maintenance of U.S. imperialism.

A very special relationship

SECTION IV: Armageddon

Around 1980, I remember I read some about Armageddon predicted to occur in the Middle East in 1984.

“…The Soviet Union would send thousands or more of tanks and armed vehicles from the north to Palestine through Syria to attack Israel. NATO will also dispatch hundreds of thousands of troops and combat vehicles to the Middle East. The U.S. would be dragged into the war to defend Israel in vain. The Soviet tanks would further advance to South Europe and eventually to the Vatican. Jerusalem and Rome would be left ruined while the U.S. and the Soviet Union would enter the final stage of the all-out nuclear warfare…”

------
But, he added soothingly, "no one knows whether those prophecies mean that Armageddon is a thousand years away or day after tomorrow. So I have never seriously warned and said we must plan according to Armageddon."

Despite that disclaimer, Reagan's critics wonder whether the President's apparent belief in a particular biblical scenario for the end of the world means that he might consider nuclear war a divine instrument.


http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,954482,00.html
------

In the summer of 1945, Japan was attacked by the U.S. with two nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

However, as symbolized by the success of Sony Corporation, Japan recovered and even helped China economically grow by offering for decades aid worth over one hundred billion dollars, just like US accumulated aid to Israel, including money, industrial properties, business know-how, and so on.

And now, from Davos to the White House, everybody seems to be under influence of money China is distributing for its covert operation to gain secret or open support for whatever policies China is pushing while neglecting human rights, for example, of Tibetans.

And meanwhile, in 1990, the total amount of land prices all over Japan reached $24 trillion (which surpassed the then total value of the US land) in its bubble economic boom.

In 1997, the total amount of land prices all over Japan fell to $17 trillion as the bubble was squashed.

In short, Japan lost $ 7 trillion in the decade, while the subprime loan problem today has violently consumed only $1 trillion.

What I mean is that Armageddon might not happen in the Middle East or around Israel involving the Vatican, but it can be triggered by China, which can be however only stopped by Japan, since Japan is the only country that have learnt holy lessons from WWII through nuclear bomb attacks and from the true modern-age bubble economy through a $7 trillion loss while helping China expand its economy to the extent that it can really threat the global environment.

And, one of the creeds of the Buddhism is that mankind may experience Armageddon as many times as necessary to attain enlightenment while repeating the building of civilization and its destruction until every member of mankind gets to the spiritual status called the Buddha.



(Now, folks and Mlles., look up at the sky. Then you will feel somebody in Iraq, Afghanistan, Sudan, and Tibet also looking up at the sky. If you feel stupid in terms of your human relationships or financial conditions, still a miracle could happen, if not one portending Armageddon but heralding something, something so nice…maybe…or not…since it looked like another Mars…

Or has anybody prophesied that when the Earth should rise on the horizon of the moon as reported by Japan...)

Analysis of Nations Using IT or Your Brain?








Analysis of Nations Using IT or Your Brain?

(Analyse des nations par l'usage de la sagesse)




Unlike in a glass-walled museum an architect in black designed, in the great underground mall connected to a near-futuristic subway station, does the sun look black (if not a deep shelter on which a nuclear warhead missile lands)?



SECTION I: IT vs. G7

------
Earlier this week the International Monetary Fund (IMF) forecast that the US would enter a "mild recession" in 2008 and said that the credit crunch could cost banks and other financial institutions around $1 trillion.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/7342419.stm
------

One of the most popular Japanese blogs on economy argued that G7 Financial Authorities Meeting turned out to become a salon of incompetent dignitaries by quoting a UK news agency’s analysis, which is however wrong in both the conclusion and the choice of the UK news agency.

Ms. Satsuki Katayama, one of the most popular female lawmakers and ex-executive of Japan’s Ministry of Finance, wrote in her Japanese blog: G7 does not function timely with the U.S. and Europe leaning to stagflation under inflation; especially she pointed that the US has unduly refrained from pumping sufficient public money into the market while its economy is at the end of cliff, which is a typical delay caused by political situations; however I have another idea.

It is power of IT, namely computer power, that is a key to understanding the state of G7, since all the high-ranking bureaucrats depend on computers in their analysis and decision making, while they cannot fully comprehend the nature and functions of computer software.

Remember that it took several years for Mr. Alan Greenspan to comprehend the power of IT and its contribution to a mysterious and drastic increase in productivity in the US economy in 1990’s.

As the software Mr. Greenspan was using could cope with the situations until 2002, he could somehow manage the US economy. But, as the situation surpassed the ability of the computers and their users, including Mr. Greenspan, none could have a correct and clear view on the subprime loan business, oil price hikes, and the declining of value of the dollar.

In the G7 Meeting, as the financial ministers and central-bank heads could not fully use computers to comprehend the global situation which actually requires more computer power for analysis, they could not offer any reasonable foresight and measures to the world.

It is a lack of ability to make the best use of computers for analysis and solution that is a key to understanding the state and the minds of G7 meeting participants.

I suppose the first-grade computer engineers and scientists in the world would agree with me.


SECTION II: IT and Japan and China and India

The factors that have enabled Chinese economic success so far:
(1) Japan did not push the U.S. to attack China in the era of the Cold War and the Vietnam War.

(2) President Nixon’s decision on de-escalating antagonism on China.

(3) Japan’s huge financial aid to China until early 2000’s.

(4) Japanese industries' massive leveraging Chinese economic potential to the extent of causing deflation in Japan.

(5) Japanese industries' decision to transfer modern technologies to China to enhance the scope of business operation and their activities.

(6) China could timely rely on emerging IT power so that it could make a quantum leap in absorbing, introducing, and applying modern technologies and business practices which would otherwise require 100 years to access.

(7) China’s traditional cultural base as a merchant-characterized race though not as a craftsman-characterized race, which match the trend of global commerce expansion.

(8) China’s tradition of spiritual culture, including Taoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism.

(9) The well maintained social order by the Chinese Communist Party, which however must be superseded by introduction of true democracy.


The factors that have enabled Indian economic success so far:
(1) Good examples of economic success of Japan.

(2) India could timely rely on emerging IT power so that it could make a quantum leap in absorbing, introducing, and applying modern technologies and business practices which would otherwise require 100 years to access.

(3) India’s tradition of spiritual culture.

(4) India’s experiences and lessons well learnt as the past colony of the U.K.

Anyway, the major factors of success, so far, of China and India are Japan and IT.


SECTION III: Chinese Dream Faked


China has a long history of wars, revolutions, insurgents, Sino-centric diplomacy, and conspiracies as well as traitorous acts, matching those of the Roman Empire, one legacy of which can be like the following:
--------
China, Japan and India are all big countries each with a population exceeding a hundred million. Their GDPs are $1.4 trillion, $4.3 trillion and $0.5 trillion respectively. India's GDP, calculated according to purchasing power parity (PPP), is next only to Japan and China in Asia. For this reason the three countries can be called the three "Giants" in Asia. If the three giants can strengthen their strategic cooperation, it is not only conducive to their own development but also to the rejuvenation of Asia.
…
The total GDP of China, Japan and India tops $6 trillion, accounting for around 20 percent of the world total GDP. The per-capita GDPs of the three countries are quite different, which means China, Japan and India will constitute the largest multi-level market in the world.
….
Among China, Japan and India there shouldn't be the kind of thinking of "pulling another over to one's side so as to contain the other" or joining hands with a superpower in regions outside Asia to contain or even encircle one of the three countries. China, Japan and India each lay great emphasis on the importance of relations with the United States In the meantime they should attach great importance to the mutual relations with one another rather than letting oneself become a pawn of a superpower outside Asia in containing one of the countries within the region…


http://english.people.com.cn/200404/29/eng20040429_141908.shtml
--------

China cannot take an initiative to make a three-party alliance of giants in Asia.

China should not pretend that it does not owe anything to Japan and the U.S.

China should first pull out all its troops from Tibet before starting to discuss anything great with Japan and the U.S.


SECTION IV: Where is your country, Michael and Al?

The following analysis tells why China should be treated with a very caution and kept a sharp eye on.



Finally, Mr. Gore and Mr. Moore should go to China with cameras to save people from pollution and contamination if not to Tibet, since "Chinese cities often seem wrapped in a toxic gray shroud. Only 1 percent of the country’s 560 million city dwellers breathe air considered safe by the European Union."

The Worldly Cares, The Deceitfulness, and Other Lusts






The Worldly Cares, The Deceitfulness, and Other Lusts



Yesterday, it was fine in Tokyo, especially around a certain museum, designed by a pious Buddhist, the late Mr. Kisho Kurokawa, which however still looks like lingering in the past era with an old paradigm of materials, engineering, and scale and volume, though its concept is modern enough to accommodate art-loving Japanese in this early 21st century.


PART I: The Earth Rising on The Moon

Now, the history of mankind has entered the new phase, since Japan is now presenting a new picture of the earth rising over the horizon of the moon as the first since a US astronaut did in 1970’s.

http://www.jaxa.jp/press/2008/04/img/20080411_kaguya_01l.jpg

As Japan has won this glory of taking and presenting this historic picture with its moon-exploration vehicle flying now around the moon, we can assume that Japan is qualified by the God as the country that can represent the mankind, though it has had hard times since the end of WWII.

Indeed, Japan has never engaged in any wars (unlike the U.S., the U.K., France, other NATO countries, Russia, India, and China) after WWII in its process to become the second largest economy in the world.

http://www.jaxa.jp/press/2008/04/20080411_kaguya_j.html


PART II: Paradox of Democracy

Especially after WWII, both in the U.S. and Japan, every poor man and woman has had a voting right.

In the US society, on average after WWII, 55% or more voters among the population are poor; but they have been unable to change the political system.

In the US, the “Republican Party” and the “Democratic Party” are as a matter of fact two ruling parties.

But, it is apparent that poor Americans have to raise a revolution and establish the third major party which might be called “Spiritual American-Dreamers Party.”

However, it has not happened due to the Paradigm of Wealth the poor people are brainwashed to believe.

In Japan, things are not so different; on average after WWII, 55% or more voters among the population are poor; but they have been unable to change the political system, either.

So, I would present a simple illustration below which tells that no matter how poor those voters are, so long as they want to be rich in the present social system based on the paradigm of wealth, a majority would vote for ruling parties.

Especially, in Japan, people know that all the leaders and executives of communism-based or socialism-based parties are rich and enjoying lucrative lives while claiming arrogantly that they can teach, guide, and lead poor workers. If you have not graduated from first rate universities and been qualified as a scholar, a professor, a lawyer, a doctor, or an elite journalist or activist, you cannot have a successful career in those liberal parties in Japan.

In my feeling, those liberal executives living rich lives are in ridicule of poor people.

It is just like Chinese communist leaders are living super-rich lives in Beijing while hundreds of millions of farmers and laborers, in addition to Tibetans, are suffering poverty.


PART III: WORDS OF GOD

Mar 4:13 And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?

Mar 4:14 The sower soweth the word.

Mar 4:15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

Mar 4:16 And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

Mar 4:17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.

Mar 4:18 And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,

Mar 4:19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.


PART IV: 50 Years Later

When the late Mr. Akio Morita of Sony was promoting the sale of transistor radios in the U.S. some 50 years ago, he got a big order.

A certain prominent US company ordered Sony’s transistor radios in a quantity of 100,000 (which was big since Sony was a small company in Japan then).

Morita visited the US company to sign a contract but did not cut a deal eventually, since the president of the company requested that Sony’s radios should have bear the brand name not of Sony but of his company for resale.

Morita claimed that Sony’s radios should be sold under the brand name of Sony.

The president of the US company laughed with scorn at Morita, saying that nobody knew the brand Sony in America and thus nobody would buy Sony’s transistor radios in America. “It took 50 years even for my company to be successful in the American market.”

But, Morita said indignantly but coolly that in 50 years his company Sony would prevail just like the US company could do in 50 years. “So, 50 years ago, nobody knew the brand of your company in America. As you have succeeded in 50 years, we will also succeed in 50 years in the American market.”

Though other Sony’s executives in Tokyo then wanted to close the contract, Morita being engaged in sales promotion of Sony’s transistor radios in the US market firmly turned it down, which apparently was a very right decision, since everybody today knows the brand Sony in the American and global markets.

I say: Please take my advice, folks.



SECTION I: The Dalai Lama at Narita

Everybody in Japan is talking and writing about the Dalai Lama who briefly touched the soil of Japan at Narita Airport yesterday on his way to the U.S.

To my surprise, the only prominent public figure who met the supreme leader of Tibet at Narita was Mrs. Akie Abe, the wife of the former Prime Minister of Japan Mr. Shinzo Abe.

---
"Government officials have no plan to meet with him. I have also not heard that the Dalai Lama expressed a desire for a meeting," Chief Cabinet Secretary Nobutaka Machimura told reporters.

Only for this incident, I can give credit to her husband, the former prime minister Mr. Shinzo Abe.

My advice to the XIV Dalai Lama is be a man without a title; do not use an expensive jet plane and a luxurious hotel.

A man with a title cannot be a follower of the Buddha and the God.

Siddhattha Gotama must be the only one with a title, namely the Buddha, in the religion of Buddhism.

Jesus Christ must be the only one with a title, namely Christ or the Messiah, in the religion of Christianity.

Live and work like an ordinary poor man; this is my advice to the Dalai Lama, so that he can really cause a revolution to save Tibet and secure its independence from China.

Likewise, I hope that the Pope will become a man without a title to live and work like an ordinary poor man.

Otherwise, the Dalai Lama must call himself the King of Tibet who can legitimately claim back his territory from Chinese communists and their military.

Indeed, Jesus Christ is also the King of the Romans, though I don’t know if He allows the Pope to take this title as a legitimate successor of Jesus Christ, also known for pious followers as the King of Israelites and the Romans.

Again, I will honestly advise the Dalai Lama that he should abandon his title and become one soldier to fight for his fellowmen even if he is not qualified as king.


SECTION II: POOR EUROPEANS

------
Some 19 million children live in poverty in the EU, about a fifth of the bloc's citizens below the age of 18.
….
In a study published last year, the United Nations Children's Fund (Unicef) examined relative poverty among children -- growing up in a household with less than half of the average national income -- in 21 industrialised countries, mostly in Europe. It found that hardship was lowest in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden but highest in Portugal, Spain, Italy, Ireland, Britain and the U.S.


http://ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=41843
------

In the Japanese tradition, children are regarded as treasure. Whenever I observe the way Europeans and European Americans deal with their children, I feel a profound difference in terms of how to regard children between Japanese and European races.

As Jesus Christ said to let children do whatever they want while they love the Holy Spirits and Angels, the Japanese way is more Christian than the European way, in my humble view.

--------
One out of five Europeans — 93 million people — lives under the poverty line. The poor include rural people in Central and Eastern Europe and ethnic minorities such as the Roma, who are among the poorest people in Europe. The Roma comprise almost 40 per cent of poor people in Romania and Bulgaria. More than eight out of ten in the Republic of Moldova live below the poverty line, many of them in rural areas.

http://www.ruralpovertyportal.org/english/regions/europe/
--------

It is said that super-rich Europeans, such as the Rothschild clan, holds hegemony over East Europe. Even US Presidents seem to like to travel to East Europe. If Russians hate to see it, the region must suffer more conflicts, covert or overt. Or are EU leaders still pretending to be wealthy successors of the Roman Empire?

I will advise that EU would give a special privileged status to the Roma, since Jesus Christ is also known, for pious followers, as the King of Israelites and the Romans.


SECTION III: A Miracle Yesterday

I saw a car with a specific car license number, such as “0110,” as its major component.

Then in a hundred yards or so, I saw another car with a specific car license number, such as “0110,” as its major component.

Then again, in another hundred yards or so, I saw other car with a specific car license number, such as “0110,” as its major component.

Al l the three different cars with the same main number component could only meet me by a holy chance, in my humble view.

Maybe three believers have come to view the EEE Reporter blog.

So, I advise you here now that you must not live and die like so many rich men in the past who must be now in the hell, since you might not have been born if the God had not liked to test a certain spirit, that is, you, in this world.



SECTION IV: Another Saint Job, Siddhattha Gotama

One day, the Devil said over-friendly but so submissively to the God, "Most Ever Highness, mankind cannot attain enlightenment by himself, though Job attained it with your most benevolent interference."

So, the God said to the Devil, "Then, send one spirit to the earth and name him Siddhattha Gotama whom you will surely see establishing a new religion by himself without My interference."

Then the Devil was allowed to send one of the smallest spirits at a certain level of Heaven, who looked too fragile to endure hard ascetic training, to a certain royal family in ancient India where a class difference was the largest among all the races in the world. He also arranged a beautiful girl to become a wife of Siddhattha Gotama.

Then, the Devil who had never learnt from the Job's case was waiting so that Siddhattha Gotama would live and die as a rich man.

The rest of the story is well known, folks.

Siddhattha Gotama attained enlightenment by himself through unspeakably difficult tests to be allowed to call himself the Buddha and establish a new religion now called Buddhism.

That is why I advise mankind to learn the Japanese version of Buddhism, since I am writing this secret story, whether you are the Pope, the Dalai Lama, or a member of the great Roma.



(I may take a look at a certain national museum at Minato Ward in Tokyo this Saturday evening, since it was designed by the late prominent architect Mr. Kisho Kurokawa who challenged, in the last Tokyo Governor election, incumbent Tokyo Governor Mr. Shintaro Ishihara who recently lost one billion dollars in municipal banking business, and Noriaki (Kisho) Kurokawa was a pious Buddhist who even risked his life in the election to save Tokyo now in a financial mess, as Ms. Kuniya of NHK recently had an interview with the Governor in trouble on air… )

US Housing Bubble ($1 trillion) and Japanese Land Bubble ($24 trillion)




US Housing Bubble ($1 trillion) and Japanese Land Bubble ($24 trillion)

(Bulle immobilière américaine et japonaise terres bulle)




SECTION I: HOUSING BUBBLE BLOG

A year ago this blog introduced an article of Financial Times:
http://thehousingbubbleblog.com/?p=2631
------
April 12, 2007
Subprime Loans “Continued To Decline”
….
The Financial Times. “US politicians are drawing up a bill that could make it less attractive for Wall Street investment banks and other financiers to repackage risky mortgages into securities and then sell them to investors around the world.”

“Spencer Bachus has backed an ‘assignee liability’ system which would mean investment banks that repackage mortgages into bonds would be liable to pay compensation to borrowers if loans turned out to have been mis-sold. unless they can show they conducted extensive due diligence.”

“Such a move would make it less attractive to repackage these loans and to buy mortgage-backed securities.”

...

“Credit problems exist all over the country, the report said, with the largest increases in California, Florida, Nevada and much of the Northeast. Beyond that, 30-day, 60-day, 90-day and 120-day delinquency rates all rose strongly.”

“At an annualized pace, first-quarter defaults reached 1.16 million, far outpacing the 900,000 defaults last year.”

However more suggestive may be some comments for the blog of the day:

“owning a home can increase responsibility and stake out a man’s place in his community….The man who owns a home has something to be proud of and reason to protect and preserve it.” — Lyndon Johnson

This is somewhat but only if the owner has some skin in the game (20% DP). Many people who get caught up in this will lose very little money. It’s their credit that will take the hit but since your credit score isn’t posted on your lawn for you to see everyday it doesn’t matter to most.

Like saying that marriage makes people more successful, live longer, stay healthier, etc. It’s not the marriage or the “purchased” home that makes a person a more responsible, productive member of society.

When you had to have 20% down, high credit scores and good, **proven** income, only the most successful could buy a home. Homeownership = productive member of society because ONLY productive members of society could buy a house.

Same with marriage. It’s the **already- successful**, dependable, stable, committed person who’s willing to get married.

----

You should note that US non-nonsense citizens were arguing honestly subprime loan problem just one year ago. But, the US Government and super-rich Americans could not stop the occurrence of the $1 trillion loss in this time span, namely four quarters.

That is why I am telling you that any open or secret organizations formed by super-rich people in the U.S. together with those in Europe are powerless and not so smart like real devils.

I tell you not to be afraid of them; but read EEE Reporter.


SECTION II: A JAPANESE PROFESSIONAL OPINION

Mr. Yoshio Suzuki, a notable veteran economist from the Bank of Japan and former lawmaker of Japan, has a positive view on future of the subprime loan problem.

He predicts that the subprime loan problem will take a favorable turn to solution rather smoothly between this June and the following summer, due to the following factors:

(1) The disclosure of related information being made thoroughly.

(2) Huge influx of money and funds into Wall Street from overseas funds.

(3) The Election Year 2008 forcing President Bush and FRB Chairman Bernanke to take active measures to defend the dollar and the stock market.

(4) Many US economists of the Nobel-Prize winner class who have well studied the Japanese Bubble Economy and its Burst in early 1990’s being prepared to join reconstruction work.

( http://www.st.rim.or.jp/~success/subpraime_ye.html)


SECTION III: Japanese Bubble Economy and its Burst

In April 1990, Japanese Finance Ministry issued to banks an executive letter of ruling intended to suppress the land bubble. It worked and the prices of land began to decline drastically and continuously for successive years.

In 1990, the total amount of land prices all over Japan reached $24 trillion (which surpassed the then total value of the US land).

In 1997, the total amount of land prices all over Japan fell to $17 trillion.

This sudden fall of land prices has been long regarded, even today, as the greatest cause for a decade-long economic slump in Japan.

Hence, the head of the Banking Bureau who issued the executive letter was later severely blamed by the media and the general public for his lack of insight and far-seeing wisdom.

I was also then watching the proceeding of these economic incidents from late 1980's, the age of the Japanese bubble economy, to early 2000’s when the aftermath of the land bubble was somehow settled down.

But, I did seldom encounter direct and honest comments from insiders of the Ministry of Finance on the decision made by the head of the Banking Bureau in 1990 who was and is still severely blamed for having triggered the deep slump of the Japanese economy in 1990’s.

Yet, recently, Ms. Satsuki Katayam, a ruling-party lawmaker and former executive of Ministry of Finance, wrote concisely some on this issue in her blog.

She wrote that the head of the Banking Bureau had made a courageous decision to suppress the Japanese land bubble unflinchingly, though the media and a majority of Japanese public did not yet praise the already-deceased notable bureaucrat.

She also wondered how much Mr. Ben Shalom Bernanke of FRB could do against the US housing bubble, while presenting her forecast that things would not change decisively until this autumn.

Yet, Ms. Satsuki Katayama, a very popular lawmaker in Japan, wrote: “The bubble is from the nature of mankind; thus we cannot avoid it. But the issue is how to suppress and conquer it when it occurs”; however I have another idea.


SECTION IV: PARADIGM CHANGE REQUESTED

The most important lesson yet to learn from the Japanese land bubble and its aftermath in 1990’s is the need for a paradigm change when leaving the bubble economy.

The deep slump of the Japanese economy in 1990’s should not be ascribed to one decision made by a certain high-ranking official of the Ministry of Finance.

Indeed, some reasonable economists in Japan today argue that it is not the single executive letter from the head of the Banking Bureau to restrain lending to land buyers but the limit of the economic framework and infrastructure of Japan for sustaining the bubble economy and fixing it appropriately or, in other word, people's mind set to try to enjoy an excessively bountiful material life unlike pious Buddhists of the Japanese version.

Nonetheless, my opinion is that it is the lack of paradigm change in viewing economy and money that forced the Japanese economy to evolve into a serious mess in 1990’s.

Likewise, what the US needs is a paradigm change in dealing with the subprime loan problem.

One example of a paradigm change in Japan, good or bad, is found in a certain political strategy former Prime Minister Mr. Jyunichiro Kizumi pursued, which has made him so popular among voters and citizens in Japan.

But, Mr. Koizumi apparently was critically influenced by the 9/11 Terror and subsequent incidents, which can be confirmed in his adventurous visits to North Korea in 2002 and 2004 (which I cannot help but take into consideration when assessing the Koizumi Administration, though I do not think he looks like a certain US actor, since several Japanese and one American were actually rescued from North Korea regardless of detailed proceeding of the very rare diplomatic incident).

Good or bad, Americans must admit that the 9/11 Terror was an incident that requested US citizens to change their paradigm on politics, economy, and their society as well as their leaders.

As such a paradigm change has not been fully pursued, the U.S. has to suffer the prolonged War on Terror and the subprime loan problem, in my view.

The “Obama” boom can be also judged in terms of the paradigm change; but the answer is yet to be obtained.



(Indeed it took 20 days for the Japanese Government and the Diet to appoint and authorize the Governor of the Bank of Japan, due to balanced strengths between the ruling parties and the Oppositions.

But, everything is difficult before it is easy as having been proven by Mr. Koizumi’s visits to North Korea, though not resulted in complete solution of the Japanese abductee problem

Anyway, it is nice to remind the audience of the significance of leaving vacant the post the Governor of the Bank of Japan even for a few weeks, since Japan is so important in the world with precious experiences on the bubble economy the US must be learning now.

[By the way, which do you like, Chinese noodles of the Japanese version or French bread with cheese or cream in? Jesus Christ said that the body is so great and holy as not to be influenced by any foods. So, I took the both yesterday...])

America, America, Are You Rich Holily?





America, America, Are You Rich Holily?

(Amérique, êtes-vous riche saintement?)




SECTION I: Conspiracy Since They Are Smart Like Devils?

Is the US total foreclosure incident, now producing a $945 billion loss (estimated by IMF most recently), an act of conspiracy by the Bush Administration?

Is the 9/11 Terror, having resulted in a total $200 billion loss, an act of conspiracy by the Bush Administration?

And, if the Bush Administration had planned and executed the 9/11 Terror, involving hundreds of officials, officers, lawmakers, journalists, businessmen, and scientists in various fields who have been all silent in these years, how many people would the Administration have needed to carry out the Foreclosure or Subprime Loan Conspiracy?

But, for what reasons did the Bush Administration have to take a risk to carry out each conspiracy, namely, the 9/11 Terror and the Subprime Loan Terror? As a means for self-destruction for some profound cause, since they are very rich and smart like devils?

The answer is that the both of the 9/11 Terror and the Subprime Loan Problem are not acts of conspiracy by the Bush Administration, but the acts of negligence of the Administration.

They could have prevented both the 9/11 Terror and the Subprime Loan Problem, but did not for each specific reason.

(Anyway, as it is fatal for them to be found incapable of protecting the nation, they would rather choose to be regarded as having an ability at least to carry out the conspiracy. Put simply, “try to look like a great evildoer than a mere fool.” I don’t think those super-rich people in the U.S. are smart enough or capable of conducting the 9/11 Terror, placing a blame on AlQaeda and millions of anti-US Muslims in the world.)

I do not pursue the real reason for their fatal negligence here, but like to point at some important facts and present my view on the US economy now suffering a $945 billion loss due to the subprime loan problem after having suffered a $200 billion loss in the wake of the 9/11 Terror.


SECTION II: A Savior for House Losers, “Hillary” or “Obama”

I once estimated that two million US house owners are faced with a 200,000 dollar default each, resulting in a total $400 billion loss.

The New York Times reported the last summer on the emerging scale of the subprime loan catastrophe:
------
There are regional and local differences, to be sure. Problems tend to be more pronounced in a few Midwestern states with weak economies, like Michigan and Ohio, and states with the greatest concentration of subprime loans, like California, Florida and Nevada. “But the trouble is not just a few places. It’s coast to coast now,” Mr. Zandi said.
------
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/08/19/business/yourmoney/19bankrupt.html?pagewanted=1&ei=5088&en=5d2a4f7c44c6d85c&ex=1345176000&partner=rssnyt&emc=rss

Indeed, “Hillary” won or were expected to win in Michigan, Ohio, California, Florida, and Nevada.

But, despite this clear merit, she is expected to disappear from the main stage of the US politics as African Americans, rich young people, and more diversified citizens love to have President Mr. Barack Hussein Obama.

But, why do those house owners faced with foreclosure like to have President Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton who is good at dealing big money even personally?

Anyway, Mr. John McCain looks now very hopeful for the next US Presidency, good or bad.


SECTION III: 50 Trillion Dollars

According to The Wall Street Journal:
------
So here’s some good news (at least for companies that serve the affluent). According to a study by Oliver Wyman, the management-consulting firm that’s part of Marsh & McLennan, total wealth held by the world’s financial millionaires — those with $1 million or more in investible assets — has grown to $50 trillion.
------

http://blogs.wsj.com/wealth/2008/04/01/worlds-millionaires-have-50-trillion/?mod=WSJBlog

According to United States Government Accountability Office:
------
Despite improvement in both the fiscal year 2006 reported net operating cost and the cash-based budget deficit, the U.S. government’s total reported liabilities, net social insurance commitments, and other fiscal exposures continue to grow and now total approximately $50 trillion, representing approximately four times the Nation’s total output (GDP) in fiscal year 2006, up from about $20 trillion, or two times GDP in fiscal year 2000.
------
http://fms.treas.gov/fr/06frusg/06gao2.pdf

It looks like the US Government is keeping its hegemony over the world by giving 50 trillion dollars of its assets to the rich people in the world.

Anyway, it seems as though there were not a needed asset worth $50 trillion at the hand of the U.S. Government; but there is a total amount of $50 trillion assets among rich people in the world.

Of course, this is one of main reasons for paradoxical acts of the US Government looking like self-destruction or an effort to realize multi-polar world as some critics emphasize, since the value of the dollar is decreasing while the crude oil price is soaring up.


SECTION IV: US National Assets $50+ Trillion

As of 2005, the US national assets are estimated to be $52 trillion.

It is also expected that these assets continue to increase by $3 trillion every year.

So, it might be about $60 trillion in 2008.

It means that every US citizen has an asset of 200,000 dollars on average, since 300 million multiplied by 200,000 dollars is equal to $60 trillion.

Anyway, taking into consideration of $50 trillion deficits, the amount and an increase rate of the US national assets might be just of a book value.

Is American wealth based on a solid foundation or on sands?

***************************************

Only I can say to you is not to be overwhelmed by the number and value, $50 trillion or $60 trillion, since the value of labor of a pious Japanese Buddhist is 5000 trillion dollars if accumulated in Heaven as Jesus Christ declared.



(Why has not the French President made a TV appearance these days?

I am sensing an influence of the Mafia.

Rich men are often captured by Mafia girls in Europe, the U.S., and even in Japan.

That is why I am telling you that all you need is God but not wealth, since His Angels can make clear distinction between Mafia girls and moral girls who do not trust any big money.

If you are still vacillating, look at yourself with a soul wealth and devils cannot create but only the God can.)

A TURKISH MUSLIM AND A JAPANESE CRAFTSMAN




A TURKISH MUSLIM AND A JAPANESE CRAFTSMAN

(Un musulman turc et un artisan japonais)


SECTION I: A MUSLIM BUDDHIST POSSIBLE


One Turk wanted to be saved by learning Buddhism, though he was a born Muslim.

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AhxE3q1fzh7wo9b61be8RmsjzKIX;_ylv=3?qid=20060709221520AA9DBy6

He posted his question on Yahoo’s Answers site:
-------
I know some of the Indian and Japanese people's original religion is Buddhism.

So instead of the ones who has converted to Buddhism from other religions, I would like to ask my question to the originally Buddhist people.

I'm Turkish and I would like to understand and learn and practice Buddhism thoroughly.

I have read a couple of books but not directly about the Buddhist teaching.
I know about the Sutras...But don't know how to reach them.

So my question is, what is the best way for a person from another religion to understand and maybe practice Buddhism ??
…
Do you think I can understand and become a Buddhist if I learn it from books or any other wise?

-------

As I often write, the God Almighty or Allah created Judaism, Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam, according to His judgment on situations of people.

It is very possible you can be a Buddhist while respecting Islam so much as to be regarded as a Muslim by other born-Muslims, since the God or Allah created both Buddhism and Islam.

Or otherwise do all the Muslims in the world believe that Japanese have been believing what the God or Allah does not admit to be a religion while Japan is the only nation that can stand against the United States?

Unless Islamic leaders in the world start to teach Muslims that Allah also created the Buddha and Buddhism as well as the Japanese Version of Buddhism, which has enabled Japan to compete with the U.S., say, even in a full scale war in WWII, Muslims cannot compete with the U.S. over hegemony in politics, economy, science, technology, art, and social systems, which means there will be always insurgents among them with a complex to the American culture and success.

Put simply, the key to avoiding the catastrophic danger caused by Islamic terrorists and introducing democracy as a base for the sound social and economic development in the Islamic regions must be their learning Buddhism, especially the Japanese Version of Buddhism.

The solution for problems in the Islamic world today is for Muslims to learn the Japanese Buddhism as another religion Allah created, which does not request them to abandon Islam at all, but to master exercising a higher level of intellectual and spiritual mind to have both the religions act and work for their benefits, since the Japan has proved in these centuries that Buddhism is truly another religion endowed by Allah to South and East Asians far before Islam was vouchsafed to Arabs.


SECTION II: JAPANESE BAMBOO WARE

Yesterday I wrote:
---
But in Japan, where Buddhism developed in a very unique manner fitting to the Japanese climate and nature, manual labor and monotonous tasks people are engaged in with pious belief in the Buddha could become an occasion to attain enlightenment only higher priests or saints are believed to reach in the West and Asia.
---

I will provide you one great example: a manual laborer or a craftsman highly respected in Japan, since his bamboo ware was highly appraised as works of art, say, by Smithsonian Institution and the Columbus Museum of Art.

http://kaladarshan.arts.ohio-state.edu/exhib/jpbask/pressrel.html

---
Baskets displayed in each section are representative of the types of baskets Hiroshima designed specifically for the farmers, fishermen, and residents of Hinokage. Among the unique assortment of baskets on display are: backpack and hip baskets for harvesting and transporting crops such as tea leaves and shiitake mushrooms; baskets and sieves for kitchen and farmyard tasks; rice storage baskets; baskets for holding live eels; fishing traps and creels; trays for raising silkworms; and woven cylinders for making soy sauce.
---

The craftsman or the bamboo-ware artist, Mr. Kazuo Hiroshima was born in Miyazaki Prefecture, Japan, in 1915 and is still active in his profession which is originally a hand laborer.

His legs were partly disabled when he was young, so that he decided to take up a profession suitable for his conditions, a humble bamboo-ware maker.

If his legs had not suffered any damages, Mr. Hiroshima recalled, he would not have been engaged in a job of making bamboo tools and utilities for everyday life of people, since such a job would not make him rich enough to buy a car or a house.

And, the very old active craftsman said in a certain interview that he saw some craftsmen in the past who wanted to buy a car so much that they just wanted to make as many products as possible to earn wages more without minding quality of their products and spirits they were living on and with.

The local town in Miyazaki Prefecture, Hinokage, where Mr. Kazuo Hiroshima is still living and working, presents a homepage advertising its artifacts and other unique traditional works.

http://www.hinokage.jp/therapy/menu/taiken_takumi.htm


For, Hinokage Town:
http://www.ilusha.net/HinokageGuide2/index.shtml


SECTION III: JAPANESE PARADIGM OF CIVILIZATION

In the West, they killed cattle and other animals to eat, used big stones for houses, loved metals for decoration and weapons, and enslaved other tribes and races to meet the needs for labor.

So, the Roman Empire must have been conquered by Jesus Christ and His followers to be truly civilized.

But, as ancient Greeks loved to think logically and abstractly and ancient Romans loved to use and study metals and machines, the West later could develop engineering and science that led to the Industrial Revolution based on the social basement and frameworks bolstered by Christianity.

But, their original inclination to animals, stones, metals, and social hierarchization has hindered full growth of their religious mind and heart, which is why they could not from the bottom of their hearts love and respect the weak, the poor, and mere craftsmen or hand-laborers.

In Japan where people did not kill cattle and other animals so much to eat, did not use big stones so much for houses, did not love metals so much for decoration and weapons, and never enslaved other tribes and races to meet the needs for labor, the Japanese Buddhism taught people to love and respect personality and spirit of the weak, the poor, and mere craftsmen or hand-laborers.

Indeed, until recently, there were hundreds of various types of professional hand work and hand labor in Japan, since Japan is rich in woods, paper materials, plants, animals, insects, fishery products, and even minerals. Japan is ten times richer than Europe in terms of diversity of the nature, though Japan is not a tropical island. Under this natural condition, Japanese craft work business became flourish through its history that could traced back for tens of thousands of years.

Based on this background, the introduction of products of the European Christian civilization made Japan the world’s most advanced industrialized country in the 20th century, which is however no wonder since Japanese culture had been at such a high-quality level though in a different paradigm of civilization of mankind.


SECTION IV: JAPANESE PHILOSOPHY OF HAND LABOR

But, nowadays, those Japanese craftsmen in traditional trade find fewer successors. The basement of the Japanese industry may be being eroded.

It may be because too many young people want cars or buy and sell stocks. And fewer senior persons recommend them spiritual enlightenment through manual labor or monotonous tasks.

It might also mean a serious problem for the Japanese Buddhism as well as its national strength, though there are so many admirers today in the world such as the one in Turk.

http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E5%A4%B1%E3%82%8F%E3%82%8C%E3%81%9F%E6%89%8B%E4%BB%95%E4%BA%8B%E3%81%AE%E6%80%9D%E6%83%B3-%E5%A1%A9%E9%87%8E-%E7%B1%B3%E6%9D%BE/dp/4794210744



(Yesterday, in an NHK’s reporting program, they showed improvement of living of manual laborers in San Jose, California, USA.

It is because the local government raised wages by 50% or more for the manual laborers the city hires for cleaning, repairing, and so on.

But, what they need more may be the teaching of the Japanese Buddhism that manual labor leads to spiritual enlightenment if conducted with belief in the Buddha and the God.

And, of course, as a reporter and cameraman wishing to be a holy kind, I am also aiming at the enlightenment.

What about you? Think it over. Be part of God’s glory!)

Foreign Devils vs. Japanese Buddhism






Foreign Devils vs. Japanese Buddhism

(Bouddhisme japonais unique vs. Étrangers Devils)





SECTION I: BLIND ADMIRES OF FOREIGN MEDIA

A certain American organization, full of racists, sent two agents to a Japanese journalist who is proud of being liberal and busy accusing the Japanese Government, encouraging him to more criticize the Japanese Government and write more about blemish and shame of the Japanese society while praising him and offering him a chance to post his writings on a magazine or newspaper under their influence.

In this way, some Americans who hate Japan have used the Japanese liberal journalist, encouraging him to more criticize the Japanese Government and citing his writings as a proof of blemish and shame of Japan, so that American people come to less respect Japan.

But, the too-naïve Japanese journalist has become so proud, telling Japanese readers that his writings are respected by the American media and have been referred to so often.

A certain British organization, full of racists, also sent two agents to another Japanese journalist and did the same thing, making the too-naive Japanese journalist so proud but abused for harming Japanese dignity and prominence in the world.

A certain Chinese organization, full of malice to Japan, also sent two agents to other Japanese journalist and did the same thing, making the too-naive Japanese journalist so proud but abused for harming Japanese dignity and prominence in the world.

(Nonetheless, it is true that there are naive organizations in America and Europe that have nothing to do with racism but just need help from Japanese liberal journalists to deploy their non-nonsense missions globally for whatever cause, which will be however discussed someday, friends.)


SECTION II: HOLY ADMIRES OF JAPAN

Heaven sent two Americans to Japan. They were amazed at the spiritual culture of Japan, going back home and becoming less wild and cruel.

Heaven sent two Europeans to Japan. They were amazed at the spiritual culture of Japan, going back home and becoming less obscene and cruel.

Heaven sent two Chinese to Japan. They were amazed at the spiritual culture of Japan, going back home and becoming less rotten and cruel.


SECTION III: VANTAGE OF JAPAN

If you are able to read Japanese, such as those learning Japanese outside Japan, I recommend you to check the following site:
http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~vb7y-td/L9/191112.htm

First of all, truly cultivated Japanese, regardless of their educational achievement or social standing, can clearly sense, feel, or see that they, namely Japanese, have cultural advantage over foreigners though it is seldom expressed publicly but leveraged through their personal communications (while some aspects of Western civilization, such as advanced arts, science, social-conflict management systems, and philosophy based on or against the Christianity, still enchant many Japanese especially engaged in the media and academic communities).

Anyway, without such cultural advantage over China and the West, Japan could not be the only non-Christian, non-European-race-dominant, and non-Western-language-speaking leader in the world from the late 19th century to today, as proven in the G8 Summit meeting.

The core of the vantage of Japan which allowed it to be the only modern global power that could stand against Western colonists was the Buddhism of the Japanese version.

If Tibet had the Buddhism of the Japanese version, they should not have been conquered by China, put extremely.


SECTION IV: A SPECIFIC CORE OF THE JAPANESE BUDDHISM

As you find in the above Web site, the Japanese Buddhism regards labor as essential part of a path to enlightenment.

Or any manual labor could be a means to achieve higher understanding of, and deeper insight into, the world, the nature, the society, communities, human relationships, and an individual as well as death and life, according to principles of the Japanese Buddhism.

In the West, manual labor is something to be forced on poor people of lower ranks.

In China, manual labor is something to be forced on poor people of lower ranks.

In Korea, manual labor is something to be forced on poor people of lower ranks.

In other Asian regions including India, manual labor is something to be forced on poor people of lower ranks.

But in Japan, where Buddhism developed in a very unique manner fitting to the Japanese climate and nature, manual labor and monotonous tasks people are engaged in with pious belief in the Buddha could become an occasion to attain enlightenment only higher priests or saints are believed to reach in the West and Asia.

This philosophy enabled Japan to be the most advanced industrialized country in the 20th century, which is the key to the success of Japan so many American elites tried to find around 1990’s until the IT boom opened a new path to success for American industries.

Anyway, that is why craftsmen, factory workers, and laborers on the street are not despised at all in the Japanese society unlike the West, China, and Asia, since it could touch a core of people's common religion in Japan.

This is one clear manifestation of Japanese spiritual culture based on its unique Buddhism.

In addition, the core of the samurai culture was also built on this theory that working and training in a daily life led to grasping the higher meaning of the use of force and death and life.

Finally, that is why even Koreans and Chinese could not have the samurai class to defend their society from the Western colonists, since their Buddhism was highly biased to the upper class of the society who hated to use their own hands to hold swords.

Indeed, Tibetans should learn Japanese Buddhism if they must become peacefully independent.


(Even Japanese female figure skaters, further different from Korean female skaters, are training themselves in line with this Japanese spiritualism, as I once pointed at, though subconsciously, thus making their performance an application of a different paradigm than that of other competitors in the world, so clearly to my eye.

Typical are also Japanese major baseball players, such as Hideo Nomo and Ichiro Suzuki.

So, learning the Japanese language must be also learning hidden and covert tradition of this Japanese Buddhism, but the Western devils are nowadays capturing more and more naïve Japanese in the fields of business, economy, politics, and journalism, to my indignation.

Yet, for some pious foreigners, it is true that demons, who had once attacked the Buddha in India 2500 years ago and landed on Japan 1500 years ago accompanying diffusion of the religion, could be their archenemy if they mastered being a kind of Japanese Buddhists.

Truly, the God Almighty who created the Buddha and the Japanese Buddhism is our only last savior…

Do you agree [since those Candies fans were all too-naïve Japanese Buddhists, good or bad]?)

Lest they should be saved...

Lest they should be saved...

(De peur qu'ils ne soient sauvés...)






Mar 4:6 But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

Mar 4:7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

Mar 4:8 And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.

Mar 4:9 And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

Mar 4:10 And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.

Mar 4:11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

Mar 4:12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.

If you are able to read Japanese, I recommend you this Sunday morning the following Web site, since it deals with the most serious transition of internal modality of the spiritual culture among Japanese in the era, more than 100 years ago, that requested the final separation from the samurai paradigm to the modern western paradigm which is, on a negative side, based on the cold-blooded modern materialism and poisonous-looking commercialism, the atheistic pretended socialism, the industrial revolution, the colonialism, the Roman Empire’s militarism, and the Vatican’s irresponsible conducts.

Otherwise, you should refer to the following document, since it shows what would be resulted from the cold-blooded modern materialism and poisonous-looking commercialism, the atheistic pretended socialism, the industrial revolution, the colonialism, the Roman Empire’s militarism, and the Vatican’s irresponsible conducts in the new continent where Europeans’ dreams were fully deployed in the name of American Dream.

Their most recent study, published in 2002, reported there are an estimated 1,682,900 homeless and runaway youth. This number is equally divided among males and females, and the majority of them are between the ages of 15 and 17 (Molino, 2007)…

In turn, homeless youth are at a greater risk of contracting AIDS or HIV related illnesses. HIV prevalence studies anonymously performed in four cities found a median HIV-positive rate of 2.3% for homeless persons under age 25 (Robertson, 1996). Other studies have found rates ranging from 5.3% in New York to 12.9% in Houston. It has been suggested that the rate of HIV prevalence for homeless youth may be as much as 2 to 10 times higher than the rates reported for other samples of adolescents in the United States (National Network for Youth, 1998)…

In one study, the rates of major depression, conduct disorder, and posttraumatic stress syndrome were found to be 3 times as high among runaway youth as among youth who have not run away (Robertson, 1989)…

If you think China is a greater country than Japan or the U.S., you should yet refer to the following:

Recent statistics show more than 287,000 people end their own lives every year on the Chinese mainland…

More than 58 percent of suicides by females and 27 percent of attempts in rural areas used pesticides…

A two-year survey by researchers at Peking University found over 20 percent of 140,000 high-school students interviewed said they had considered committing suicide. And 6.5 percent of the students surveyed said they had made plans to kill themselves…

(Note that Chinese statistics is often intentionally modified when made public by several-times multiplication or division.)


Now poor people in the world must know who they should trust, Japanese, Americans, or Chinese?

You should consult God, Jesus Christ, Allah, or otherwise the Buddha, if you do not trust EEE Reporter now in Japan.
