For Health, Pray in Jesus' Way and Breath in a Specific Manner

The most important nutrition for cells, organs, and the human body is oxygen.   So, some Japanese experts in Buddhism and Shitoism as well as Spiritual researchers have focused on breathing.

Some Japanese Buddhist monks and shinto priests in the past invented their own effective method of breathing.  Even Nobuo Shioya, a spiritualism researcher and a physician who died in 2008 at the age of 105 invented his own breathing method of curing diseases and keeping health.

For example, zen master Hakuin (1686-1769) once got ill due to too hard zen training, but he was saved by learning a special method of breathing.  Later, he became a restorer of a zen faction of Japanese Buddhism.  This method is to inhale the air while imaging to take the air to around the naval.  He also recommended to imagine that inhaling and exhaling of the air through the soles of foot. 

The point at issue is imaging or meditating that the air is being inhaled or exhaled to/from around the naval or through the soles of foot while practicing deep breathing in a manner of the abdominal type of respiration or the belly breathing.

Shioya was unique in recommending to pray for peace of the world while practicing deep breathing to/from around the naval with hands locked on the belly in a specific form.  In this era of the corona pandemic, it is recommended to pray for settlement of the pandemic while practicing a specific breathing method.  

Although Christ Jesus did not recommend any breathing method, He taught how to pray: 

7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:

Breathing while praying as Christ Jesus told us must be more effective in conquering diseases and keeping health.  It is because a holy spirit should come into your body while you are breathing and praying to the God.  The holy spirit should fill your body, organs, and cells to take away poisonous matters and provide energy to your body, organs, and cells.  It should even suppress the corona virus.  That is why Christian priests have built up resistance to infectious diseases although they have travelled all the world to preach Gospels, so that Christianity has spread all the world in these 2,000 years.

Holy spirits taken into the human body while praying to the God must be more important and critical than oxygen taken by any specific breathing methods.      

So, to conquer the corona virus, you have to pray to the God as Christ Jesus told us, and then you might as well perform a specific abdominal type of respiration or belly breathing.

Mark 11, King James Version
11 And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.
12 And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:
13 And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.
14 And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.

"Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee" - A Spiritualism-Oriented Physician Invented a Method to Cure All

A Spiritualism-Oriented Physician Invented a Method to Cure All

It is well known that some psychic can heal a sick using his/her hand put on the sick.  Even the Gospel according to Mark reads that Christ Jesus used His hand to heal sick men.

4 But Jesus, said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.
5 And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. (Mark 6)

A Japanese psychic researcher called Nobuo Shioya (1902 - 2008), who was also a physician graduated from the University of Tokyo, performed the healing method of putting his hand over sick persons to become the most popular physician in Tokyo before WWII.  After WWII, he was sometimes invited by the imperial family to cure the empress Nagako (1903-2000) of the Showa Emperor Hirohito.  But, he further developed a new method to cure the sick and keep health which he named the Seishin-Chosoku (controlling breathes with a right mind) method.   

Shioya wrote that he could cure his cataract and succeeded in prostate cancer prevention with the Seishin-Chosoku method.  By applying this method to himself, Shioya became an age shooter at his age of 92, and he continued to play golf till he became 100 and more.

He found that this method was effective to make one's wish come true.  In this method, one has to breath deeply and exhale the air slowly while folding his hands on the belly in a specific manner called suzu-in (a bell-shape form).

His Hands and Fingers in the Suzu-In Form 

(http://osamunai7.livedoor.blog/archives/22213750.html)

The key to applying this method to making one's wish come true is to recite one's wish in one's mind.  And, Shioya was not a Christian, but he studied various prophets around Christianity such as warnings given in Mary's apparitions.  So, he became worried about the future of the mankind.  So, he practiced this method to contribute to peace, reciting that the world peace has been achieved.  

As a psychic, Shioya believed that this universe is full of unseen energy which can be taken into one's mind through the breathing and the suzu-in shape of crossed fingers and locked palms.  But the most important element in this method is reciting one's wish in his mind while breathing.

So, I think that this Seishin-Chosoku method is effective in prevention of corona-virus infection and realizing peace in Ukraine.  You have to inhale deeply to the bottom of your belly and exhale slowly with your hypogastric region tightened while reciting in your mind that corona viruses have been expelled from your body or peace has been achieved in Ukraine. 

Shioya believed that the mankind has not simply happened to evolve from primitive living things.  He believed that the God had planned to create the mankind from the beginning, so that He created the mankind deliberately by making a certain specific primitive living thing pass through evolution in a planned path and reach the sate of the mankind as He initially had planned.  

Shioya believed in existence of spirits and the spirit world and performed a kind of spiritual healing, which could not be accepted in the academic field, so that when he was young, he was forced to resign from the University of Tokyo Hospital to become an independent physician.  He continued to personally study spiritual matters while working as a physician.  But, after he retired from his profession in his 80's, he thought he had to more contribute to the society.  And, he began writing about the Seishin-Chosoku method at his 90 or so to help people in keeping their health and secure the world from a coming tragedy as he had been informed of it by his guardian spirit through spiritual communications.

         

Anyway, Shioya lived till the age of 105 years old, which shows his Seishin-Chosoku method is effective, although he became demented in a bedridden state after his age of 100.  And, the empress dowager Nagako, who had received his medical care, lived till the age of 97.  We had better apply the Seishin-Chosoku method to ourselves.

John 11, King James Version

5 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
6 When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.
7 Then after that saith he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.
8 His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?
9 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
10 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbleth, because there is no light in him.
11 These things said he: and after that he saith unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.

"For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me" - This Century does not Look so Blessed and Bright

This Century does not Look so Blessed and Bright

Once in Japan, there lived a female psychic called Aiko Gibo (1932 - 2003) who often made a TV appearance through 1980's to 2000's, becoming so famous that she even acted with Uri Geller in a Japanese TV program.  She even went to the U.S. to see spiritually Marilyn Monroe in her last days.  In Paris, she saw the spirit of Marie-Antoinette.  Still today, she is regarded as one of great and successful psychics in modern Japan.

Aiko Gibo (https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E9%9C%8A%E8%83%BD%E8%80%85%E3%81%A8%E3%81%97%E3%81%A6%E7%94%9F%E3%81%BE%E3%82%8C%E3%81%A6%E7%94%9F%E3%81%8D%E3%81%A6-%E8%AC%9B%E8%AB%87%E7%A4%BE%E6%96%87%E5%BA%AB-%E5%AE%9C%E4%BF%9D-%E6%84%9B%E5%AD%90/dp/4061852973)

She had the ability since her childhood to see unseen spirits attached to people and tell future incidents.  But, she lived as a normal housewife without launching a religion or business to earn money, though she made TV appearances and wrote some books on herself and spiritual matters.    

She was a pious Buddhist and often tried to condole on dead souls in a Buddhist manner offering incense sticks.  Indeed, there are traditionally some psychics among Japanese shinto priests and Buddhist priests.  Spiritualism has been rooted in Japan and Japanese people for thousands years.  Even the Japanese imperial family has traditions and dignity based on myths with full of spiritual matters.  Indeed, Japanese people are so spiritual that they should be regarded as spiritual people in a Japanese sense, although they have traditionally accepted any non-nonsense religions such as shinto, Buddhism, and even Christianity.  The Japanese imperial family has their own version of shintoism.  The emperor is regarded as an descendant of a Japanese god.

And, Aiko Gibo predicted beforehand the occurrence of the great earthquake/tsunami in 2011 and the long-term government by prime minister Abe in 2010s who was unfortunately shot and killed in 2022 by a victim of a cult religion believed to be associated with Abe. 

Gibo also predicted that the end of the world would not come in July 1997, although it was widely believed in Japan that Nostradamus had predicted so.  But, she prophesized that there would occur in future a big tragedy where living men would envy dead men.  However, she did not clearly and specifically tell what the tragedy should be. 

She died in 2003 at 71 due to cancer of the stomach although she once prophesized in 1990s that a then popular TV announcer in Japan would die of cancer, which unfortunately came true. 

The ability to see and hear spirits of dead men and know future incidents is unique and shadowy for ordinary people.  But, Christ Jesus said to understand the fate of the world: 

54 And he said also to the people, When ye see a cloud rise out of the　west, straightway ye say, There cometh a shower; and so it is.
55 And when ye see the south wind blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it cometh to pass.
56 Ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky and of the earth; but how is it that ye do not discern this time? (Luke 12)

If Gibo lived today, she would be 90 years old, which is not so rare in Japan for women nowadays.  It looks like she left this world before a great tragedy begins.  Indeed, the 21st century began with the 9/11 terror attacks, suffered the global financial crisis, and continues to be inflicted with the corona pandemic and the war in Ukraine.  Indeed, if you could see the future, you might as well leave this world if it is so bad and horrible that you envy so much those who have already died.

So, this century does not look so blessed and bright.  We had better read the Gospels until the 22nd century comes.

Luke 11, King James Version
5 And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves;
6 For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him?
7 And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee.
8 I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth.
9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
