(All around Tokyo)Completeness, Integrity, and Balance or Beauty
Jesus Christ must call to your mind the completeness in terms of a mindset.
Jesus Christ must call to your mind the integrity in terms of personality.

Americans like to find glory as a proof in high achievement of completeness, integrity, and balance.
Japanese like to see beauty as a proof in high achievement of completeness, integrity, and balance.
That is why commercial goods, from a high-rise building to a home electric appliance, must be attractive enough in this context, evoking in the mind of consumers any personal sense of glory and beauty.
Even, those in power and citizens, too, often view their era or the past by measuring it with the concept of glory or beauty.
Conversely, the era so distressful and ugly cannot be even fully discussed in a textbook of history.
Judaism is one of rare exceptions to this general rule in this context.
Islam is typical of examples of this general rule in this context.
Christianity is however peculiar in that completeness, integrity, even balance, and collaterally glory and beauty all converge on the person of Jesus Christ Himself on the crucifix...
