Believe in the Spiritual Energy like Little Children

The Gospels tell the story about the great psychic Christ Jesus.  As He was blessed by the God who gave the psychic ability to Christ Jesus, He could perform various miracles.  But, Satan hated Christ Jesus so much and finally killed Him on the cross.  

As Satan could not defeat the God, it was a crazy act to kill Christ Jesus.  But, whether or not Satan killed Christ Jesus, it was destined to be finally destroyed by the God.  Before its complete extinction by the God, Satan must have been determined to harm and soil the human world as much as possible.  So, although it knew that Christ Jesus could continue to live in the spirit world if He was killed in this world, Satan wanted to harm Christ Jesus even in the human world as much as possible.  By harming reputation of Christ Jesus, Satan wanted to get as many people as possible into the hells.  Satan wants as many people as possible to die with it in the hells.

Christ Jesus showed that love could defeat Satan when He died on the cross in this world.  Indeed, Satan used human hatred through which it penetrated into human minds.  So, until His death on the cross, Christ Jesus did not show hatred to those who had sold their souls to Satan.

But why did Satan hate Christ Jesus so much as to kill Him in the human world, although it knew that Christ Jesus could continue to live in the spirit world?  It is because Christ Jesus told people to use spiritual energy and psychic power in addition to love to solve any human problems without relying on power of money which is another form of Satan.

Indeed, when people started to use spiritual energy and psychic power in addition to love to solve any human problems, Satan would lose its influential power on people.

So, what we should learn from the Gospels is how effective spiritual energy and psychic power in addition to love are.  Indeed, spiritual energy and psychic power in addition to love have great power.  So, many persons of religion in India, China, Japan, etc. have traditionally tried to acquire spiritual energy and psychic power through hard ascetic training.  

But, Christ Jesus told that anybody could get such ability through faith in the God who is the Creator of the whole universe.  And, such ability should be used with love to the God and poor neighbors.  This teaching of Christ Jesus made Satan angry.  If this teaching prevailed, nobody would try to use Satan's power or get money even by selling their souls to Satan.

However, as the spiritual energy penetrates into this material world, some people happen to be able to use this energy.  With this energy, ancient Egyptians could build pyramids, Yuri Geller can bend spoons, and some psychics cure the disease.  But, as Satan can use this energy and give it to anybody it chooses, we have to first have faith in the God in seeking such energy. 

Indeed, the Gospel reads:

18 At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?
2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,
3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.  (Matthew 18)

In order to use the spiritual energy or the energy in the spirit world, we have to believe in the God without doubt like small children who do not know power of money or Satan.

Anyway, Satan succeeded in killing Christ Jesus in this world who did not use spiritual energy to defeat those who had sold their souls to Satan.  However, love of Christ Jesus to those who had sold their souls to Satan does not mean that Christ Jesus loved Satan.  In the spirit world, Satan should have been all the more severely punished.

Yet, we should use spiritual energy and psychic power more than money in solving human problems.  And such power can obtain through our faith in the God.  But, it should be used with love.  Otherwise, Satan will attack us with spiritual energy.  We should not forget that Satan could kill Christ Jesus in this world.

However, we should use spiritual energy and psychic power more than money in solving human problems, since our souls and minds can continue to live in the spirit world after death in this world.

Matthew 10, King James Version
10 And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.
2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother;
3 Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus;
4 Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.

"the same is a thief and a robber" - Our Souls more Valuable than Money

Our Souls more Valuable than Money

There seems to be big mistakes in interpreting the Gospels.  That is why men cannot build a civilization where they can fully enjoy God's blessings.  Rather, they are now revering and respecting Satan as a god, since Satan takes the form of money.  Even the world economy is based on money which they believe can solve anything in the human world.  So, money becomes a kind of religions and common languages in the world.  Power of money (Satan in other word) overwhelms the world.

So, we have to change our view on the Gospels.  The Gospels tell the teaching of the God that rich men cannot enter into Heaven but go into the hells, since money is the source of every evil and the tool of Satan who understands its fate that it will be finally and decisively destroyed by the God, so that it is trying to harm and soil the human world created by the God as much as possible and bring as many men as possible to the hells before its extinction.  

First of all, Christ Jesus told that there are Heavens and the hells, which means that there is other world or the afterlife.  Indeed, if you believe in Christ Jesus, you would simply believe that there is the afterlife where Heaven and the hells exist.  And, because Christ Jesus assured poor people could be accepted in Heaven to live happy forever, Christianity has prevailed through these 2,000 years, since a majority in the human world has been always poor people. 

So, Christians mean essentially the people who are not afraid of their death in this world, since they are convinced that they can be accepted in Heaven to enjoy eternal happiness.  Therefore, they do not seek money to become materially happy in this world.  Rather, they see Satan in money, so that they try to avoid money as much as possible, so that they have would inevitably become poor.  This is why monks and nuns have to live poor, separating their lives from worldly money-driven society.  They have to live with less money as much as possible.  You can pray to the God in anywhere, but Satan can easily come into ordinary life, so that they have to hide in monasteries or convents.  But, strong saints such as Christ Jesus, St. Peter, etc. did not avoid encounter with Satan.  Indeed, Christ Jesus said to people not to be afraid of Satan, since it cannot do anything other than killing them in this world.  

But, Satan has brainwashed people with money, showing how happy lives people can enjoy with big money in this world.  Satan teaches that happiness in this world is more important than happiness in Heaven in the afterlife.  And, the more people taste material happiness in this world, the more people follow Satan and seek money.  Then, the human civilization started to corrupt.  

But, Christ Jesus has waited for 2,000 years.  Even the Holy Mother gave warnings in many places such as Fatima in these centuries.  But, it seems that time is up.  The Holy Mother in her apparitions told that the God would no more defend and protect the human beings from coming disasters such as WWIII, great natural disasters, so on.  Yet, people are seeking money or following Satan, as they  mistakenly believe that human science and technology would solve any problems.  But, modern science and technology developed based on money (Satan) economy cannot be effective in solving problems caused by evil of money (Satan). 

For example, modern science and technology are supported by electricity that generates electromagnetic effects that can interfere with earth magnetism.  Even electric vehicles are prevailing.  Disturbance in earth magnetism should cause disturbance in stability of the earth axis.  Poles of the earth axis might change, causing a great catastrophe to the human civilization.  It would have a greater consequence than that caused by the increase in the CO2 emissions.  But, can we stop use of electricity?  

We are rushing to the catastrophe with material prosperity based on use of electricity while Satan in the spirit world is laughing to see human folly.  That is why the Holy Mother was shedding tears in her apparitions to see the future tragedies of the mankind most of whom would go to the hells after their death in this world.  Crazy Satan would gather those souls of the mankind in the hells so as to further attack Heaven with them.  But, the God should destroy them once and for all.  Those souls of the mankind following Satan would be completely destroyed and lost in the spirit world.  But, other souls admitted into Heaven would live happy forever there, looking down on the great tragedy and extinction of the hells.                    

So, we have to turn to the God, Christ Jesus, the Holy Mother, etc., avoiding use of money.  We have to have poor lives not supported by money.  We have to start to build a civilization based on spiritual love but not love to money (Satan).  

But, can the Pope and other priests and pastors clearly shout that money is Satan?

At least, we have to lower the level of our material life to that of 2,000 years ago when Christ Jesus first came to this world.  Then we will be saved from the coming tragedies.  We should rely on our spiritual power in getting foods, clothes, residents, etc.  With our prayer to the God, we surely can obtain such power.

So, we have to strengthen, purify, and deepen our faith in the God so that we can get more spiritual power.  Indeed, saints with great spiritual power should be found among poor men without money or influences of Satan.  

And, I do not think that the above theory is against various theories in Japanese Buddhism, shintoism, spiritualism, etc.  We should have believed in our traditional spiritualism that seemed to have been lost about 1,000 years ago in Japan.  

Indeed, once a notable Buddhist monk with spiritual power was said to have changed weather in a rain-making ritual so as to make rains in the agricultural land.  It may be a little difficult for modern people, but there are some even today who can bend a spoon with psychic power.  We have to have faith in our ability to be able to live spiritually like small children who are not brainwashed with money (Satan) as Christ Jesus told.        

Anyway, we are alive not due to money but due to our spiritual power.  Our souls are more valuable than money.  In other world, our love or minds are more precious than money.  We should not sell our souls to Satan for any money.

John 10, King James Version
10 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
6 This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.
7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.

"all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years" - Satan in Details in Modern Science

Around Tokyo 

Satan in Details in Modern Science 

The causal relation is a basis of the modern science and technology and also that of Buddhism.  But, it is observed that this relation is broken in the world of elementary particles.  Even it cannot be judged whether an incident there happened in the past or will happen in the future.  Indeed, in the spirt world there is no concept of time and space.  Therefore, in the very small space in the material world, the energy of the spirit world can penetrate there to break the common sense in the material world, so that various mysteries should happen such as one in the double-slit experience in the quantum physics.

For example, this world is made of atoms where electrons with negative charges are moving around an atomic nucleus with positive charges.  But, electrons never fall into the atomic nucleus; even attracting force working between electrons and the atomic nucleus never mingle them into one object.  It is said that there is no probability that electrons take such orbits as would make electrons clash the nucleus due to quantum physical laws.  Therefore, every material object such as water and iron and even human bodies can exists stably.  Otherwise, this material world suddenly collapse.  However, modern physics cannot find factors that decide such probabilities about locations, movements, etc. of elementary particles, etc.  The answer must be found in the spirit world.  It should be the spiritual energy that maintains and preserve this material world.  

Therefore, we have to admit that energy and force from the spirit world penetrate this world.  And, as Christ Jesus said, we should be able to work on the energy and force from the spirit world through our prayers to the God and faith in the God.

Indeed, with strong faith in the God as Christ Jesus had, we should be able to work on the energy and force coming from the spirit world so as to cause various miracles.  However, Christ Jesus did not make poor people materially rich by use of the ability to use the spiritual force and energy.  Instead, He taught that poor men were blessed as they could be allowed into Heaven after death in this world.

It must mean that living in poverty is the decisive condition to be accepted in Heaven.  Life in poverty in this world must have more significant meaning than we think.  To be rich, we have to sell any portions of our souls to Satan, which is a blasphemy.  Material affluence means a lack in faith in the God.  But, Satan stimulates men's desire to be materially rich, so that they come to seek money even by selling their souls to Satan.   

In this context, modern science, religions, economy, public order, etc. are all connected to one another.  And, even the ability to use the spiritual energy is not effective in solving these human problems.  It is because even Satan can also use the spiritual energy to destroy people and contaminate civilization.  As Swedenborg wrote, if angels and good spirits did not protect people and civilization, they should be suddenly destroyed, since Satan and evil spirits can work on materials and fates of people.    

From ancient days, people in the world believed that God's power was working in this world.  So, even before the first coming of Christ Jesus to this human world 2,000 years ago, they prayed to the God so as to save them from various threats in the nature and the human world.  But, as the material civilization developed, people did not turn to the God so much and so often as before, since the modern material civilization based on technology and science gave them easy solution, comfort and benefits.  And, wealth and money have promised people almighty power to solve every problem.  As consequence, people have come to revere money as a god, which is the purpose of Satan.  Money is indeed another form of Satan.

Indeed, it is said that devil is in the details.  Truly, modern science has found that sacred power is working against Satan who wants to collapse and destroy this material world from the level of elementary particles.  We have to change to spiritual civilization leaving power of money (Satan) behind.

"will ye also be his disciples?" - Believe without Doubt

Believe without Doubt

Why do so many people experience or observe super-natural phenomena such as spoon bending and near-death experiences?  Even some people are cured through spiritual healing.  It is because there is spiritual energy and force working in this world.  In other word, there is the God.

If you denied existence of spirits, spiritual energy, the spirit world, and the God, you would not deny the fact that you are alive with your own mind.  But, your life and mind are rather spiritual than material, since your body consisting of molecules, atoms, elemental particles, etc. should not live and have a mind as no life and mind can be found in those elements.

So, you deny spiritual matters by using your mind in your body that are spiritual.  You may build an AI robot with those elements and software, but it cannot have a mind, only simulating a human mind.  It cannot think of the God.

From the beginning, this material universe was created with energy in the spirit world.  The God used His words and thought to create this material universe from the spirit world.  Therefore, spiritual energy can still penetrate into this material world superseding material physical laws and physical energy and force.  Therefore, scientists cannot discover and explain secrets or mysteries and origin of this universe and materials such as elementary particles.  The spirit world and the God cannot be explained scientifically.

But how can we connect to the spirit world and use the spiritual energy?  According to Christ Jesus, we can be connected to the spirit world and use the spiritual energy through our prayer and faith.  Yet, are those psychics or persons with spiritual power so faithful?  Indeed, the Bible reads that even Satan and evil spirits can use the spiritual energy.  That is why the Vatican is reluctant to admit that any man with supernatural power is a saint.  Satan can even float a man it haunts in the air.

If our civilization was based on spiritual energy, we should not contaminate the earth as we see today.  With spiritual energy, we should be able to get enough foods, clothes, and residents.  But as we wanted more and materially high-quality foods, clothes, and residents, we opted to develop material civilization and social systems based on money and wealth, resulting in the world of today with full of problems.  In other word, our material desire has defiled and soiled the environment.

Therefore, the solution to these problems in the world is to enhance our faith in the God so as to be able to use the energy of the spirit world.  But, as the Holy Mother warned in Fatima in 1917, etc., it may be too late.  The God will probably no more protect us from coming disasters such as WWIII and great natural disasters.  Indeed, it has been 2,000 years since the first coming of Christ Jesus to this world.  The mankind has been given enough time.

But, if we repent today to abandon our material desire, Christ Jesus might come to this world in the second time to save us.  For this purpose, we should start to regard money as a tool of Satan, so that we should avoid seeking money to satisfy our material desire.  We should stop money-based economy.  And, we must start to build new civilization based on our belief in the word of Christ Jesus: "Anything can be possible if you believe without doubt."                

 

Indeed, thousands and more of little children who saw Uri Geller's performance to bend a spoon with psychic power suddenly started to do the same in Japan in 1970s.  We have to be like these small children.

27 He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?
28 Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses' disciples.
29 We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.
30 The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.

"gain the whole world, and lose himself" - Reversed Correspondence between the Human World and the Spirit World

Reversed Correspondence between the Human World and the Spirit World 

According to Swedenborg, a great psychic in the 18th century, there is correspondence between this human world or this material world and the spirit world or the afterlife.  But, it must be a reciprocal number-related relationship.  What is large in this world should be small in the spirit world.  What has big value in this world should have small value in the afterlife. 

Being rich in this world means being poor in the spirit world.  Being poor in this world should mean being rich in the spirit world.  Therefore, Christ Jesus said to be poor in this world, so that wealth will be accumulated in the spirit world.  Indeed, the value system is opposite between this world and the afterlife.  This is the key to understanding this world, Heaven, and the hells in Christianity.  And, understanding this relationship means obtaining enlightenment in Buddhism.  But, love and truth of the God should be exceptional. 

So, the value system based on the amount of money and wealth is not effective in the spirit world or the afterlife.  The value system in Heaven should be solely based on how much one loves the God.  But, the value system in the hells should be based on how much you hate the God.   

Yet, in the human world, people love money more than the God.  People revere money more than the God.  Actually people regard money as a god, since money can solve any problems in this world.  However, money is another form of Satan.  Therefore, people revere Satan as a god.

But, in the spirit world, you do not need money to get what you want.  According to Swedenborg, when you think about something, it will be realized.  Whatever you wish will be soon realized in the spirit world.  So, spirits of dead men in the spirit world should want what money cannot buy.  And what they want is love for the God or love for Satan.  They want to realize love with the God or Satan.  So, those who love the God will go up into Heaven, but  those who love Satan will go down to the hells.  

And, Satan who knows it will be finally destroyed by the God is trying to harm and soil the God as much as possible before it is eradicated by the God.  So, Satan is so evil and crazy.  Its followers will be like Satan.

Anyway, the more you have money, the more you can be happy in this world.  But, the more you have love to money, the less you will be happy in the spirit world.  Yet, the more you have hatred to the God, the more you feel happiness in the hells.  Indeed, the hells are governed and ruled by Satan who is so evil and crazy.

Put simply, sanity in the human world to seek money for happiness is madness in the spirit world where one's idea is realized when it is thought about.  What you need in the spirit world is love to the God.  However, most of men who go into the spirit world cannot realize this truth or they continue to love Satan as a god.

But, a man with the physical body needs money to buy foods, clothes, the residence, etc.  So, he will think it is crazy to believe that such necessities will be provided by the God only if he loves the God.  But, this craziness is recommended by Christ Jesus, and many people believed in Christ Jesus once, so that Christianity prevailed.  But, Satan has almost succeeded in making all the people love money as a god since material civilization started to give more convenience and comfort with development of material science and technology in the 19th century onwards.

Yet, the more you have money, the more you are rejected at the entrance of Heaven.  This difference or discrimination in the spirit world must correspond reversely to that in the human world.

24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?
26 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.
27 But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.

The Key to being Free from Satan

In what state will men live in the spirit world or the afterlife after death in this world?  

Some people who have communicated with spirits living in the spirit world or have had near-death-experience say that men's spirits have to undergo education and training after death so as to enhance themselves in the spirit world toward Heaven or the God's sphere.  Or otherwise they must fall into the hells.

Swedenborg who saw the spirit world while living in this world in the 18th century reported that no spirits in Haven ware lazy or just enjoying their status of being in Heaven; everybody was working to help other spirits.

So, we have to read the Gospels to check words of Christ Jesus, and we should find that one of the main themes of the Gospels is fight against Satan.  Therefore, we might assume that human spirits allowed into Heaven should be busy fighting Satan and evil spirits.  Indeed, this must be the reason why the God had created men and accepted some of their spirits in Heaven.  We should be expected essentially to fight Satan and evil spirits.

Heaven should be the place where happiness can be completely realized forever.  But why are simple spirits of dead men allowed to enter Heaven and enjoy the utmost happiness there forever only if they are qualified by the God?  It must be because the God wants these spirits to fight against Satan and evil spirits in the spirit world.  And, as reward these fighting spirits should be allowed sometimes to enjoy happiness in Heaven.  But, this fight against Satan and evil spirits should continue forever.  Yet, the God, His angels, and His followers cannot be defeated by Satan and evil spirits.  The end is clear, but the God wants His angels and His followers to fight for Him forever, although the God must be able to eradicate Satan, evil spirits, and even the hells at any time.  It might be a show for the God, but we are in no positions and situations where we can complain.      

Indeed, some spirits of men who were believes of Buddhism or shintoism when there had been alive in Japan said in spiritual communications with spiritualistic mediums that they had to go through more education and trainings in the spirit world to go up to the higher levels in the spirit world.  And, they looked so busy that they had no time to communicate with spiritualistic mediums or family members left in the human world. 

But what is the content of such training in the spirit world?  Some religious people or those familiar with spiritualism often say that this human world is the place for spiritual training, so that a man has to repeat reincarnation over and over again till he gets enough enlightenment like the Buddha.  The Buddha said that when one acquired such enlightenment he would go into the supreme state of spirits where only peace and tranquility exist and there would be no more reincarnation to suffer in life in the human world.  He must at least be able to flee from Satan and evil spirits in this world and the spirit world.  But, Christ Jesus tried to defeat Satan with His love to people suffering from Satan's wickedness and even Satan who is destined to be completely destroyed by the God in the end.   

In this world men are requested to enhance their personal quality.  In the spirit world, their spirits are requested to enhance their spiritual quality.  But, how?  It should be through fight against Satan and evil spirits.  And, where are Satan and evil spirits?  Satan is everywhere in the form of money, and evils spirits are in the minds of men seeking money by selling their souls to Satan.  To enter into higher levels in the spirit world, men must fight against their desire to earn money and get wealth.  In this world, men must try to be poor as much as possible, and in the spirit world their spirits must fight Satan and evil spirits fighting against everything holy and sacred. 

So, put simply, the reason for our existence in this world and the spirit world is fight against Satan and evil spirits.  And, fighting Satan means to become poor as much as possible.  Indeed, there are no such men as rich Christ Jesus and rich angels.

However, as Satan is wickedly clever, it might appear among poor people in the form of a poor saint to make them believe that money is their god.  To enhance one's ability to defeat Satan and evil spirits loving to bring pollution to the world created by the God must be a purpose for our existence in the human world and the spirit world.

Finally, poverty is the key to being free from Satan.

23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
24 And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.
25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.
26 And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.
27 But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose.

"we know not; or who hath opened his eyes" - One-Armed Japanese Manga Artist Believing in Spirits

 

Tokyo Bay

One-Armed Japanese Manga Artist Believing in Spirits

Shigeru Mizuki (real name: Shigeru Mura, 1922-2015) was a prestigious manga (cartoon) artist who started his career in 1958 after he had been demobilized and sent home from a South Pacific war front in WWII where he had lost his left arm due to an air raid by the U.S./Australian military.  

Mizuki was chosen by the Japanese Government to be a person who has performed distinguished services in the field of culture in Japan in 2010.  Indeed, Mizuki is even today recognized as one of the most successful manga (cartoon) artist in Japan after WWII like Osamu Tezuka (1928-1989) whose style influenced many manga/animation artists in Japan after WWII.  (Mizuki once said that Tezuka was younger than he, but as Mizuki used to sleep more than 10 hours per day, he could live longer than Tezuka.)

What is specific to Mizuki is his emphasis on specters or spiritual figures.  He created a Manga series with a boy called Kitaro with spiritual power as a main figure.  Kitaro fights against evil spirits and bad guys, and he always wins in the end.  Kitaro is called "Ge-Ge-Ge-no Kitaro (Kitaro of ge, ge, ge)" as animals praise him and sing luridly with sounds of "ge, ge, ge" to praise him and celebrate his victory over the wicked.    

But the most specific to Mizuki is the fact that he was a manga (cartoon) artist with only right arm, although he used some assistants after he became famous and very busy.  He came back to Japan as a disabled soldier without any hope in his life after WWII, but he did not lose his will to continue his life, so that he finally decided to use his talent for painting after various jobs such as peddling of the fish and an owner of an apartment house (called Mizuki House, which became his pen name).  And, he could marry a young woman in his home town while he was still a poor comic artist.  It was when Mizuki was almost 40 years of age that his manga (comics) became so popular in the Japanese society.  And, he finally became a rich man so as to travel the world (such as the South Pacific regions, South East Asia, Australia, and the U.S.) to see local spiritual traditions.  He has become a researcher of the spiritual culture.  Based on this experience, he created many graphic novels.    

Mizuki had believed the existence of spiritual creatures since he was a small child as he was familiar with an old woman in his home town who often came to his house for help and had a superstitious idea.  Mizuki showed his talent of painting in his primary-school age before WWII.  But, it is a kind of miracles that a disabled soldier with only one arm became a successful manga artist.

When he traveled to Australia to see Aborigine's culture, he found that they were living with spirits.  He was satisfied to see that there were people daily living with spirits.  He thinks that men after their death would go into the state like a baby before one or two years old where they do not realize that they are living. 

He did not have spiritual ability, but he believed that spirits were everywhere especially in undeveloped regions in the world.  Anyway, it is a miracle that a one-armed manga artist had become one of the most notable and successful artists in Japan after WWII.  So, disabled soldiers in the Ukraine War might become successful artists in the future.

17 They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.
18 But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.
19 And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?
20 His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:
21 But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.

"Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples" - Spiritual Importance of Breathing

Spiritual Importance of Breathing

According to various priests, monks, masters, teachers, pursuers, researchers, etc. of Japanese Buddhism, shintoism, spiritualism, etc. breathing is the key to keeping and promoting health.  

Some of them say that men can get energy in the universe into their bodies through deep and repeated breathing to fill their lungs and abdomen.  Indeed, they have proposed various ways of deep breathing based on their own theories.  Some historical Buddhist monks who launched their own schools of Japanese Buddhism are said to have practiced special breathing to get enlightenment.  Even today, some health specialists recommend an abdominal type of respiration where air is slowly taken through the nose and led to the lower part below the navel and then spewed out more slowly from the nose or mouth. 

It is said the most important nutrition to human cells is oxygen.  Especially it is said that the human brain consumes about 25% of all the oxygen taken in through breathing.  Indeed, oxygen from breathing and glucose sugar from the liver are needed for our brains to work and function normally.  

A Japanese medical doctor, called Nobuo Shioya who had practiced special breathing for decades, did not show mountain sickness when he climbed up the Himalayas at his age of 74 in 1990s while other climbers, younger than he, in his group all suffered altitude sickness.  So, he confirmed the effect and advantage of his method of breathing.  Cells in his body must have been filled with oxygen due to his breathing method.   

Anyway, importance of oxygen to the human body has been confirmed in this period of the corona-pandemic.  Oxygen inhalers have played the key role in medical treatment of corona-virus infected patients.

But, what should be noted is Shioya's theory for recommending deep breathing: Energy in universe, which should be regarded as spiritual energy, can be taken into one's body through deep breathing.  He thinks that some mysterious energy surely fills the universe, although he had been educated in the University of Tokyo.  Some yoga masters often study and practice traditional breathing by which they believe that they can take in universal energy into their bodies to enhance their super-natural ability.  Even the Buddha is said to have practiced a special way of breathing, so that he could live up to 80 years 2,500 years ago.  Shioya lived up to 105 years old and died in 2008, while writing about 10 books about his method of breathing and thoughts.  Shioya thought that his health had been realized by his specific breathing; he became an age shooter in playing golf a few times at his 90s of his age.  

Shioya did not have specific spiritual ability but he encountered some super-natural phenomena in his life such as falling of gold powders from the air in his clinic or spiritual communications with a great priest of Japanese shintoism who had been living more than 1,000 years ago.  So, he found that breathing is a way of connecting oneself to spiritual energy.  If Shioya lived today, he should be free from the corona-pandemic.  Indeed, if Queen Elizabeth II had practiced Shioya's method of breathing, she should have continued to live over 2022.  In addition, he came to believe that he had been Lao-tze, a great Chinese thinker about 2,500 years ago, in one of his previous lives (In Japan, there were founders of new religions after WWII who claimed that they had been, each, once the Buddha in their former incarnation, although without concrete evidence).  Although he had been a prestigious physician in Tokyo till the middle of 1980s since days before WWII, he was a great researcher of spiritualism.  

Shioya believed the existence of spirits and the spirit world.  So, he practiced a kind of hand healing and is said to have cured privately the Empress Kojun (a grandmother of the incumbent Emperor) of Showa Emperor decades ago.  And, what occupied Shioya's mind was the coming crises of the earth such as WWIII.  So, he recommended to practice his method of breathing with a notion and prayer that peace would prevail in the world.  Indeed, while he was living, peace prevailed in Japan and WWIII did not happen.

According to Shioya, one's prayer to the God, etc. can be heard through its breading, although he was not Christian but a kind of followers of Japanese Buddhism and shintoism.  Shioya thought that the human civilization had corrupted and gone rotten enough to make WWIII happen.  Our civilization has contaminated the air of the earth so much that abnormal weather should come.  Even pole shift would occur, he is afraid. 

After death in this world, one's spirit needs not to breath in the spirit world.  But, breathing might be a way of connecting oneself to the spirit world. Psychics might be unconsciously performing a special method of breathing when they are showing effects of their spiritual power. 

So, the corona pandemic might have occurred to remind us of importance of breathing and oxygen to the human bodies and cells.  We must be able to live longer and healthier through practicing specific breathing or especially Shioya's method of breathing (https://www.naturalscience.org/news/2020/03/the-healing-power-of-breath/).

Matthew 9, King James Version
15 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.
16 No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse.
17 Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.
18 While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.

Important Questions and Basic Answers

The beginning of this universe or this material world is the time when the energy in the spirit world worked so as to generate the material energy. In other word, it was when this universe or this material world was generated from the spirit world through thought, idea, or notion of the God with His words. That is why modern science based on only material physical laws cannot elucidate or make sense of the origin of the universe.

The beginning of each person is the time when a spirit came into its brain of the body still in a womb of its mother.  The end of each person is when its spirit leaves its brain and body.  That is why each person cannot understand what it is unless it understands spiritual matters.  But, it is also why the mankind need religion and myths that make them closer to spiritual matters.

The beginning of this era of material civilization is the time when Christ Jesus appeared in the human world 2,000 years ago.  Since then, the human world has developed through the Roman Empire, the Middle Ages, the Renaissance period, the Age of Exploration, the Industrial Revolution, the Scientific Revolution, the French Revolution, the War of U.S. Independence, WWI, WWII, and etc.  Indeed, it is Christianity but neither Hinduism/Buddhism nor Taoism/Confucianism/classic Chinese culture that has made possible prosperity of the mankind as seen today.   

The material civilization established by power of Christianity has come to produce the huge amount of material wealth to the extent of destroying the nature or changing the earth environment.  This civilization was essentially based on Christianity, but wealth produced in the civilization has made people love wealth more than the God.  This is the key factor to our future. 

So, we have come from the spirit world, are in the material civilization based on the European/American culture established on Christianity, and are going to leave this material world to go back to the spirit world.  But the spirit world is ultimately divided into Heaven and the hells.  And, since the material civilization came to produce so much wealth as to make people love wealth more than the God, most of people have fallen into the heals; only a few have been admitted into Heaven.

And, since the Marian apparition in Fatima. Portugal, in 1917, the Holy Mary has never ceased to give warnings to the mankind: "The God is angry, since He has been betrayed by the mankind, so that He would not any more protect people from coming WWIII and great natural disasters."

So, although the Holy Mary is sad to see catastrophe of the human material civilization, this material civilization would be surely stopped through coming WWIII and great natural disasters in this century, namely 2,000 years after the first coming of Christ Jesus to the human world.  Indeed, the civilization of people most of whose souls fall into the hells after physical death should be worthless to the God.

So, now it is clear as to what we are, where we came from, where we are going to, and why we are not blessed by the God.

However, the God, Christ Jesus, and the Holy Mother are so merciful that They would allow the history of the mankind to continue to the 22nd century and onwards, if we repent and correct our thoughts and behaviors.  So, all we have to do is to love the God more than wealth produced by our material civilization.  In other word, we must love the God more than Satan who has been helping us in our achieving material prosperity and success.  

Satan has penetrated into our civilization in the form of money, so that it has made people revere it as a god.  Therefore the reasonable question is under whom we are living or who controls us, or otherwise why the God does not help us get material happiness.  The answer is because we are revering Satan in the form of money so much that the God is angry at us.

Finally, we have to try to be poor as much as possible to appease the God and hate money and material wealth, even if we come to madden Satan and its followers so fiercely.           

Indeed, important questions can be simple, and the correct answers are so basic: What should we do?  We have to try to become poor as much as possible to show our love to the God.

Acts 9, King James Version
15 But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:
16 For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake.
17 And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.
18 And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.
19 And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.
20 And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.

"the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight" - Enlightenment in a Holy Mountain in Japan in 1995

Enlightenment in a Holy Mountain in Japan in 1995

In 1995, a middle-aged mountain ascetic died in a notable holy mountain in Japan while he was practicing fasting to be continued for 60 days; he died of fatigue and breakdown at the 55th day of his fasting.  But, he wrote in his diary that he surely got enlightenment on the 37th day, namely August 31, 1995, although he died 5 days before planned completion. 　　

Such a mountain ascetic in Japan is usually called a practitioner of Shugen-do.  Practitioners of Shugen-do go into holy mountains and practice ascetic training alone for days while practicing rituals with prayer to great spirits of Japanese Buddhism or shintoism. 

This mountain ascetic had already made 40-day fasting by 1995.  He wanted to further train himself to get enlightenment, so that he could save all the mankind like the Buddha or Christ Jesus.  Many supporters came to the place of the training almost everyday, namely a small wooden hall in the mountain, carrying bottles or cases of water for him.  They took pictures and made a record on him, but could not save him from death.  After this accidental death in ascetic training, the supporters privately made a book on him.

According to his diary made public in the book, the mountain ascetic wrote that he found enlightenment meant realizing and understanding spiritual power, rather than getting spiritual sight, as he had been so told in his mind by great spirits of Buddhism and shintoism at the 37th day of fasting.

But at the time he was extremely broken up and debilitated.  But, he continued his fasting and even climbed to the top of the holy mountain.  He got sick and died at the 55th day of fasting. 

It is a tragedy; a man in ascetic training dies in a holy mountain, especially in Japan in 1990s.  But, his diary gave  a precious record about what he thought and felt in the training.       

According to his diary written by the mountain ascetic everyday during the fasting, he surely heard voices of great spirits of Buddhism and shintoism who told him that they had given him spiritual power that would lead him to enlightenment.  And, he believed in those words.  He found that power is enlightenment.  He thought that he would live till 100 years of his age with this power.  But, after hearing these words, he died 18 days later while continuing his fasting.

Probably after hearing these words, he should have asked his supporters to carry him to a base of the mountain.  But he attached his mind to his original plan to complete the 60-day fasting.

None has criticized the man; this tragedy has not been widely published in Japan.  But, we had better know this fact to know that there was a Japanese who tried to get enlightenment even risking his life in ascetic training at the end of the 20th century. 

In my opinion, reading the Bible and the Gospels 60 times from the first page to the last page must be also effective in getting enlightenment.  But, anyway, when a man dies and enters the spirit world, he would be surely given enlightenment by the God, if he so wishes.

John 9
10 Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?
11 He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.
12 Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.
13 They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.
14 And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.
15 Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.
16 Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

"Why say the scribes that Elias must first come?" - The Spiritual Energy vs. the Physical Laws

The Spiritual Energy vs. the Physical Laws

This material world or the whole universe was created from the spirit world through the word or will of the God.  In other word, spiritual energy generated material energy from which this universe was created.

Therefore, no matter how hard scientists try to find how this universe was created with scientific means or by applying physical theories and laws, they cannot get a correct answer.  It is because they do not apply spiritual theories and laws.  Unless scientists admit there is the spirit world on which this material world was built, they must not be able to find the correct answer as to how this universe was created.  

As this material world or even the human world is built on the spirit world, spiritual energy can penetrate into this material world or even the human world, causing various supernatural phenomena or miracles in this world, since the spiritual energy surpasses physical energy or physical laws.

The miracles caused or performed by Christ Jesus should be viewed and considered from the above point of view.  Indeed, the spiritual energy can supersede the material energy.  And, as Christ Jesus could manipulate the spiritual energy, He could cause or perform various miracles as written in the Gospels.  

And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. (Matthew 17)

And, the above passage tells how we can use the spiritual energy.  Through our faith we can use the spiritual energy to remove a mountain from one place to another.  And, we can do anything in this world with spiritual energy.  With it, we can bend a spoon or float ourselves in the air.

But, it is not only Christ Jesus who knew this truth about the power of the spiritual energy.  Some old monks or priests of the Japanese Buddhism or shintoism or even Japanese mountain ascetics knew this power of the spiritual energy.  They tried hard to purify their minds through hard physical training, so that they could get the ability to manipulate the spiritual energy.  There are records in the Japanese history that specific monks or priests of the Japanese Buddhism or shintoism or even Japanese mountain ascetics acquired the supernatural power through hard training such as fasting for scores of days.

Even in the history of European Christianity, some Christian monks or nuns are said to have acquired this ability through their faith.  They showed various miracles that the Vatican had to admit and authorize.  The holy spring at Lourdes discovered by a faithful French girl and the miracle of the Sun in Fatima around pious Portuguese children are considered to have been caused with this spiritual energy.  Some Christian monks or nuns are said to have floated in the air while praying or in religious ecstasy.  Their faith must have pulled the spiritual energy around them.  

Even modern psychics without strong faith in Christ Jesus or the God are said to be able to use the spiritual energy.  Such psychics are reportedly found in Japan, India, China, Brazil, the Philippines, etc.

It is mystery how Uri Geller, etc. have come to have the ability to use this ability.  But, it tells that this material world was essentially and originally created by the God with the spiritual energy.  And, spiritual energy can supersede the material force and physical laws in this world.  Indeed, quantum mechanics shows various mysterious phenomena at the level of elemental particles; science of astronomy shows various mysterious phenomena such as dark energy and dark force at the level of galaxies.  To find correct answers to explain these mysterious behaviors of elemental particles and galaxies, scientists should study the spirit world, the spiritual energy, and the God.                 

Anyway, after a man died, his mind or soul would go into the spirit world as Christ Jesus, Swedenborg, etc. tell.  And, he would become a spirit to live there.  The spirit should find correct answers to those questions such as how the universe or the material world was created from the spirit world.

However, Satan can also manipulate the spiritual energy.  It is said that a person haunted by Satan sometimes floated in the air.  So, Christ Jesus gave warnings about Satan, phony Christ, etc.          

Yet, you might be disappointed to know that the Pope never bends a spoon with his psychic power.  Indeed, I think that if Christ Jesus lived today, He should bend a spoon with his holy psychic power to show people that there is the spiritual energy in the human world.  Or, Christ Jesus is using Uri Geller, etc. on behalf of Him for some reasons.

Anyway, the human material civilization based on physical laws should be changed so as to more respect spiritual energy.

11 And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come?

13 But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him.

”John have I beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear such things?” - Cursing Spirits with Satan behind

 

Tokyo Bay

Cursing Spirits with Satan behind

A Japanese psychic woman who had qualification of a Buddhist nun wrote decades ago that spiritual curse could often occur to a sympathetic man/woman with a fine spirit who was a descendant of the cursing spirit.  This is a conclusion of years of her consultation for and interviews with many people suffering diseases. 

As the cursing spirit of a dead man wants to be worshipped by his/her descendant with a fine spirit, it haunts such a descendant.  It means that a spirit in the spirit world wants to go into a higher level.  But, the spirit should be purified to get into a higher level.  For this purpose, worship by a living sympathetic man/woman is needed.  To get attention of such a man/woman, the spirit of a dead man haunts such a person.  As a result, the haunted person might get sick or encounter a mysterious accident.  When a disease occurs due to this reason, a ceremony of purification is necessary, since no medication is effective in this case.       

In this world, a poor man can be rich to ascend the social structure.  But, to ascend in the spirit world, a spirit should be more purified; yet, it is very difficult for a spirit to be purified in the spirit world.  Therefore, it needs help from a living person who would worship or pray for it.  So, it haunts its descendant or relative who has sympathetic mind with a fine spirit.  In this case, the psychic woman advised such a sick person to clean a tomb of a possibly cursing ancestor and worship or pray for the ancestor.  And, this purification of a dead person was sometimes performed by the psychic woman for her clients according to the Japanese Buddhism or shintoism.  

But, when a wondering spirit cannot find an appropriate person, it sometimes haunts an animal or even a plant or stone.  Therefore, a man living with such an animal, plant, stone, etc. might get sick due to a wondering and cursing spirt.  In that case the psychic woman advised such a sick person to remove such an animal, thing, etc. from around the person or its home.  She could see a shape of wondering or cursing spirit even in a stone, a plant, or goods.

This theory that a soul of a dead man wants to ascend higher in the spirit world, so that it needs worship or prayer for him by living sympathetic persons with fine spirits seems to be reasonable and universal.  Every tribe, race, and people in the world is accustomed to worship or pray for their ancestors regardless of difference in religions.  

Yet, Christ Jesus said of a dead man: "And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.  But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead (Matthew 8)."   

So, as long as men follow Christ Jesus, no curse of dead men should fall on living men.  Therefore, Christian priests should be exempted from curses of dead men.  So, they should be even able to perform exorcism. 

Anyway, it is not right for the soul of a dead man haunts a living man for any reasons.  There must be an influence of Satan who wants to make persons suffer for any reasons.  Satan must have influential power not only in this world but also in the spirit world.  But, psychics who find influence of souls of dead men in a sick person should more study spiritualism and practice ascetism.  They should see Satan behind cursing spirits on sick persons.

Therefore, as Christ Jesus could defeat Satan, He could cure sick persons under influence of Satan.  In other word, if we have enough faith, we can be exempted from every disease behind which there is Satan.  This must be underlying theory of faith or psychic healing.              

And any diseases, including the one caused by the corona-virus, have some linkage to Satan who is working in the human society and living of every individual.  That is why excellent religious persons, such as Mother Teresa who could live till 87 of age while having lived in dens of misery full of disease germs in India for decades, can live long in deteriorated environments. 

Conversely, without faith in the God, men can be easily victimized by cursing spirits with Satan behind even in the form of a disease.

"he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay" - Falling into the Hells more Tragic than WWIII

 

Tokyo Bay

Falling into the Hells more Tragic than WWIII

It is thought, though in my feeling, that WWIII will break out around 2029 as NATO and the Russian military will clash.   China will try to invade Taiwan in vain.  North Korea will launch a war against South Korea to fail.  Iran and Syrian will also attack Israel, but Israel will survive.  WWIII will continue for four to five years.  And, NATO will occupy Moscow and Russia will be fully democratized, but China will go into a civil war after WWIII through 2030s.  Anyway, nuclear war fare will not happen as nuclear weapons have not been used in the Ukraine War.  Through WWIII, authoritarian states such as Russia, China, and North Korea will tumble down.  The whole earth will be then fully democratized. 

Christ Jesus indeed predicted coming tragedies in future. 

Matthew 24
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

In addition, it has been said that the Holy Mother gave prediction about occurrence of WWIII as a secret in Fatima, Portugal, in 1917. The Vatican made it public in 2,000, but it was doubted whether the secret was fully made public. As Lucia, the then only survivor of the three children who had seen and heard the Mother Mary in Fatima in 1917, and John Paul II, who made the secret public, both died in 2005, truth cannot be known today.

However, the three children who saw the apparition of the Holy Mary in Fatima in 1917 were shown the state of the hells with Satan and dead men there by the Holy Mother.  They were very much frightened, though their souls were protected by the Holy Mother. 

Francisco and Jacinta, the other two children than Lucia, were told by the Holy Mother in Her prediction that they would soon die and be carried to Heaven.  They actually died around 1920.  After having met the apparition of the Holy Mother and having seen the state of the hells, the children sincerely prayed to the God until their death with a wish of salvation of souls in the hells.   

I think the details of the so-called 3rd secret of Fatima are not important.  As the Holy Mother predicted outbreak of WWII in Fatima, WWIII will surely happen.  However, how WWIII will affect the Vatican is interesting.  When WWIII erupts, people will accuse the Vatican of having not fully revealed the 3rd secret of Fatima while the Holy Mother gave a warning on WWIII to people through Lucia, etc.

If you believe in the miracle in Fatima in 1917, you have to also believe in the state of the hells the three children had seen: there was a sea of fire; Satan and evil spirits were in the sea like burning, black or transparent, bronze charcoal; countless human souls were falling down into the hells; and a beautiful woman entered the sea but came out as an ugly monster.        

According to the words of the holy mother, the human material civilization has rotten and debased so much; people have insulted the God so much; and they neglected the words of Christ Jesus so much.  Therefore, the God and Christ Jesus would not protect people from disasters any more.  This is the common content of the warnings by the Holy Mary delivered in Garanbandal, Mejugorie, etc. since Fatima in 1917. 

What is worse, after WWIII, great natural disasters should occur on the earth.  The world climate would become extremely abnormal.  The positions of the North Pole and the South Pole would shift.  Polar bands and tropical zones would be inverted.  At the end of the 21st century, the world population might be significantly decreased.   

But, it is more tragic that billions of people will fall into the hells than tragedies in this world.  Probably, more than 90% of people living now in this world will fall into the hells after their physical death in this world.  Otherwise, the Holy May should not have come to this world in her apparition and would not bother to show the three innocent children in Fatima the state of the hells.

We had better sincerely read the Bible and pray to the God like Lucia, Francisco, and Jacinta, bearing up under the pain.  According to little Jacinta, carnal desire is the worst sin that should lead us to the hells.  So, we had better dedicate our continence to the God so as to avoid the tragedies in this century.

"his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow" - Globally GDP has Increased so Dangerously

Tokyo Bay
 

Globally GDP has Increased so Dangerously

The historical trend of the world GDP is as follows:

(https://www.vox.com/xpress/2014/8/15/6003001/economy-gdp-chart-exponential-industrial-revolution)

This figure shows how global wealth has increased as time goes by. 

Put simply, since the era of Jesus Christ about the 1st century until the 18th century when the industrial revolution globally expanded, the human civilization had not posed a threat to the nature.  But as the amount of material wealth increased drastically after the 19th century as symbolized by the above GDP trend graph, a danger has been caused not only to the nature but also to the human minds and spirit.  

Clearly stated, the above graph of historical trend of GDP increase shows the degree of danger posed to the human spirit.  It means that soundness or health of our spirit now faces a great threat from our own material civilization.   

It is because motivation or driving power of the increase of GDP is human desire for wealth and money but not for love to the God or neighbors as commanded by Christ Jesus.  To increase wealth or material riches, we need money; to acquire money, we would even sell our souls to Satan.  Therefore, the graph actually show how much men have been influenced by Satan or how many souls have been sold to Satan in these 2,000 years.  As is shown in the graph, we have recently already sold too many souls to Satan as the curve of the graph exponentially steeply arose.  

It is no wonder that the Holy Mother has detected danger, so that She started to give warnings to the mankind since the 19th century and especially in Fatima, Portugal, in 1917.  In other words, the above graph shows how much we are influenced by Satan.

If we can earn 100 dollars, we would accept 100 evil deeds; with 100,000 dollars, we would accept 100,000 evil deeds; and for 1 trillion dollar, we would accept or encourage 1 trillion evil deeds in the society.  In this way, as we have become richer  as with increase in GDP, we would accept more evil deeds and incidents.  The whole world would be a kind of the hells.  Indeed, in the Kingdom of the God, there should be no money or material wealth.  That is why Christ Jesus said, "No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon (Matthew 6)." 

And the above graph shows how much men have come to server mammon but not the God especially since the 19th century.  It seems more than 90% of the global population is serving mammon, seeking money and revering Satan as a god.  As they believe that money can solve any problems, they think money is almighty.  They seem to regard money that is another form of Satan as a god.  So, money is a global common religion now.  In addition, money is a global common language.

To be materially happy in this world, almost everybody wants money, which means that everybody sells his or her soul to Satan.  But, money does not work after death in this world.  In the afterlife or the spirit world, only desire for money and a lack of love to the God and neighbors persist.  So, souls of these people would have to go the hells where they do not see bright light of love of the God.  Or they would hate the God so much as they would go to the hells.

As global GDP has already increased so much or men have sold their souls to Satan so much as the graph shows, we cannot avoid future tragedies such as WWIII or great natural disasters expected to come in this century.  The Holy Mary said in her apparition that the Lord would not protect people from coming tragedies any more.

However, if we abandon wealth and hate money, trying to be poor as much as possible, Christ Jesus might come to this world again to save those who believe His words from WWIII and the great natural disasters.  Only meaningful words today are "Be poor as much as possible!"

Mark 9, King James Version
9 And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power.
2 And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them.
3 And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them.
4 And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.
