Faith is Necessary for Life and Death

There are those who say that “People can live without religion and faith.”  In reality, there are many people who live such a lifestyle.  Maybe it is because they can only believe what they can see, and not the unseen. 

However, in our lives the love, compassion, and sincerity from others are attributes that cannot be seen.  The Universe consists of many unseen workings.

In order to create a world where people are truly happy and everyone is happy together, we must value that which cannot be seen.

Above all, a faith that feels the workings of Heaven and Earth (Kami), and lives in harmony with the Universe (Kami) can create a life of abundance.
