Leaping into our Sacred Consciousness
Welcome! It is a great honour for
me to welcome so many eminent leaders on this very special day!
Today, the earth’s people are
about to take a great leap forward in their own, individual evolution and
self-creation. This surge has already begun, and the time has arrived when each
of us will join in the current of this large-scale, evolutionary trend.
I say this because, along with the dimensional rise of Earth, more and more of us are becoming “spiritually-minded.” That is to say, we are giving more attention to our inner being, and less to external factors such as material wealth, prestige, and background. One by one, each of us is starting to recall our deep, original sacred nature.
If humanity is to take this great leap, people working in all different fields—politics, economics, education, science, the arts—must gain a sense of our shared, sacred nature and open their eyes to a more expansive way of living, filled with respect for great nature and all living things. When large numbers of people can do this, the world will vastly change. This will happen not gradually, but all at once.
To spark this rapid transformation, the Fuji Declaration has appeared on the scene, gathering the attention of outstanding leaders in all walks of life, transcending differences in nationality, ideology, culture and religion. Thanks to the influence of visionary leaders like yourselves, more and more individuals are concurring with the Fuji Declaration and expressing it in their daily life.
I cannot over-emphasize the importance of each individual in bringing about the positive transformation of humanity. When the consciousness of even one person becomes weak, it has a harmful influence on everyone and everything. It creates an atmosphere where conflicts, famine, and environmental abuse can easily take place. On the other hand, when even one person firmly connects with their splendid, sacred nature, a great harmonizing power spreads through the earth, resolving disharmony or reducing it to a smaller scale.
Each human being is part of this earthly world, and at the same time, part of the cosmos. We are earthly beings and cosmic beings, both at the same time. All of us share equally in the air, the water, and the land, and we all share in the same brilliant, universal light.
The infinitely profound mind of the universe is constantly sending out cosmic essences—sources of life and energy that fill universal space. They are like tiny droplets filled with infinite potential: love, harmony, wisdom, and the power of accomplishment. Each of us can fully receive these wondrous, cosmic essences when we attune ourselves to them.
To do so, each of us must know that we are a noble and precious existence—a sacred, dignified life. We must know that we are forever connected to one another. Just as the cells and organs work together to maintain the health of the body, all of us are exchanging life and energy to enliven humanity and Earth.
Each of us is, in some way, unique and special. There are no two people who can accomplish exactly the same work. Each of us is indispensable for the evolution of humanity and Earth.
The Fuji Declaration has emerged at the perfect time. It creates the opportunity needed for all the world's people to merge together and co-create an entirely new and peaceful world. It makes it possible for all individuals to re-enliven their essential, sacred nature and live in harmony with the universal divine will.
Empowered by the Fuji Declaration, we human beings can now join together to surmount the tremendous barriers and chaotic conditions that bode crisis and destruction on Earth. Together, we will consider solutions for large-scale issues such as environmental destruction and abnormal weather conditions, as well as social and medical issues that menace humans and great nature.
At this critical time, it is vital for peace-minded people who are already living with their sacred consciousness to take the first step, hastening the spiritual rebirth of humanity. If we keep thinking about and envisioning the evolution of everything on Earth, and keep sending out currents of pure, expansive love, we will light the way for humanity to build a lifestyle filled with unconditionally bright thinking—thinking that embraces everyone’s hopes and dreams for the future. When they see peace-minded people leading joyful, vibrant lives, more and more individuals will feel inspired to do the same.
By knowing about our essential, sacred nature and uniquely important work, more and more of us will be able to dispel the self-rejecting, self-defeating thoughts that we have been mired in. We will inquire into our inner wisdom and intuition, and realize that with the limitless resources we hold, we can resolve whatever confronts us.
As people continue to experience this, one by one, they will learn to naturally trust themselves without being held back by past mistakes and failures. Once we have lifted ourselves to this state, we will be able to live each day with joyful feelings, having nothing to fear and sensing only dignity within.
In all the domains that people belong to—whether countries, political parties, societies, organizations, or religions—we will go on to re-fashion our countries, cities, and towns in ways that invite not a speck of discrimination, fighting, or struggle, giving birth to a harmonized, well-ordered world based only on sacred truth.
How happy we are to be living at this decisive moment in the evolution of humanity and Earth. How grateful I am to have come together with beautiful peace colleagues like you.
Thank you very much, and May Peace Prevail on Earth
