Shinji Takahashi - Principles That Takahashi Preached - Transition of Religion and The Path To Shinri - From Ancient Times To The Christian Era

From Ancient Times To The Christian Era

Just over 300 million years ago, the first fleet of antigravitational photon spacecraft (or UFOs), guided by seven archangels including Michael, came from a harmonized star called Beta to Earth, in search of a new world. They settled in the delta of the eastern region of the Nile Valley in Egypt. Before long, the first utopia of humankind was built in a place called El-Kantale. Today, El-Kantale is known as the Garden of Eden. The people of El-Kantale were able to freely separate souls from physical bodies using astral projection, and were thus able to freely make contact with the world above. Over time, a second fleet came to visit Earth, and from among this group, there were some who went astray, and people who disturbed the harmony started to emerge. Michael, who was the leader, then moved these people to another location, and admonished them to self-reflect on their thoughts and actions. However, the people who were moved to a different location decided to cut off communication with the people of El-Kantale and the world above. After their death, they did not return to the world above but instead, created a world of hell, based on their disharmonious ideas (the world beyond is a metaphysical world that is based on consciousness, where ideas themselves are the source of creation). Lucifer, was sent to Earth under orders by the world above, as a human being by the name of Satan, to rescue these people, gave himself up to his own status and glory, and fell towards the world of hell where he has been reigning as the czar of the underworld ever since.

Civilization then underwent a great number of transitions, such as the sinking of the great continents of Lemuria and Mu, after which, civilization moved to the continent of Atlantis in approximately 7000 BC. Civilization developed rapidly, and people led flourishing lifestyles. Towards the end of the age of Atlantis, Agasha, who was born a king (an earlier incarnation of Jesus Christ), preached the divine principles of love and compassion to the lost souls of the people. However, people who had already sold their souls to the devil executed the angels of light, with the exception of Agasha (according to Fauriyari, the spirit of a person of that time, who appears in Takahashi's book “Kokoro no Hakken, Shinri-hen,” Agasha was also executed at this time), and to set an example, the people who believed in Agasha were also buried alive.

Based on these kinds of disharmonious ideas and actions, Atlantis was covered in an immense, black consciousness, and as a counteraction, the continent of Atlantis sank. The people who escaped the downfall of Atlantis passed along their civilization to the Nile Valley in Egypt, and by integrating with other civilizations, they succeeded in building a utopia and germinating the Egyptian civilization. As angels of light that were sent at this time, there was Clario (another earlier incarnation of Jesus Christ) and Cleo Parota (which may have been the same being as Clario). Over time, civilization prospered in Greece, and Apollo (an incarnation of the archangel Michael) was born around 1500 BC. Apollo conveyed the purpose and mission of life to his people, and built the Aegean civilization. He prophesized the birth of Gotama Siddhartha in the East, and then left this Earth. Through his followers that accepted his orders, Apollo’s teachings were passed along to India in the East, and came to be referred to as Brahmin.

Meanwhile, around 1180 BC, Moses was born in Egypt, which had been devastated by the people, and where people in power had accepted the spread of Satan and those at the bottom had no freedom. Moses was born among the people of Israel, (slaves in Egypt at that time), but raised as part of the royal family. He later found out that he was originally born to slaves, opened his eyes to the repugnance between rulers and subjects, and took a stand in freeing the slaves. Moses secretly received the guidance of Yahweh and led the Israelites towards Canaan, relying on the Ten Commandments. Afterwards, in Israel at around 900 B.C., the teachings of Moses became obsolete, and at a time when the Baal faith, which demands sacrifices of people’s children, Elijah (another reincarnation of the archangel Michael) was born. After accepting Yahweh’s orders, Elijah challenged religious leaders and King Ahab during the worship of Baal, and by carrying out several miracles, Elijah was able to defeat King Ahab and the religious leaders, and brought back Moses’ Ten Commandments.

In 32 BC, Jesus Christ was born in Israel. Jesus consoled and healed poor and sick people in Israel, which was under the oppressive rule of Rome. Jesus preached love and penitence in order to be able to reach the land of God, together with his apostles, during a time when people felt very concerned for their own well-being due to persecution by people who had political power. After dying on the crucifix, Jesus showed himself to his disciples through his resurrection. The disciples came to speak languages of other countries and spread the teachings of Jesus Christ.

The teachings of Apollo that had been conveyed as Brahmin, finally became fossilized after approximately 1,000 years. In 654 B.C., Gotama Siddhartha (Gautama Siddhartha; reincarnation of the great guiding spirit Cantare, who was of a superior level of light) was born in Kapilvastu, India (present-day Nepal). Siddhartha was born and raised as a ksatriya (warrior). Siddhartha grew up without his mother, Maya, who had died in exchange for Siddhartha’s life, in a time of unceasing wars. Even if the inside of the palace at Kapilavastue, where he lived, was elegant, Siddhartha became overwhelmed with doubt about the poor people that he would see after taking one step outside of the palace, and made a decision to go into religion. After undergoing various different ascetic training programs for 6 years, Siddhartha, ready for death, sat under the tree of Buddha and reflected on his life of 36 years and purified himself of disharmonious thoughts and actions. As a result, he caught a glimpse of the world of light, and realized that this was a reflection of the level of harmony in his own heart. With this light of compassion, he also made the demon Papias Mara and those serving under him, who were trying to obstruct Siddhartha from attaining Enlightenment, repent, ultimately resulting in salvation. Based on this, Siddhartha had gained validation on the correctness of his own method towards Enlightenment, and after progressing with self-reflection and an “expansion of consciousness,” he realized that he was united with the universe (bonga ichinyo, uchu soku ware). Siddhartha, who had attained Enlightenment, honored the request of Brahma (Amon, Clario, and Moses), and started mission work. In the caste system of that time consisting of the 4 divisions, Brahmanas, Kshastriyas, Vaishyas, and Shudras, the Brahmanas, who devoted all their time to academics that were biased towards knowledge and will, appeared to be full of elegance at first glance, whereas the Kshastriyas experienced constant unrest and suffering from wars, and there were severe disparities between the rich and the poor among the Vaishyas and Shudras. Siddhartha, however, preached the road to self-definition based on compassion and the Noble Eightfold Path to these people without any discrimination. The teachings of Siddhartha came to be divided into the Northern Tradition (Mahayana) and Southern Tradition (Theravada), and after Tendai Zhi-yi restored Buddhist teachings in China, it was introduced to the Eastern part of China in the Age of Mappou, there was a second coming of the teachings of Siddhartha, in line with the plan from the world above, in the city of Kentmati in Javadova (a country in the East) as Siddhartha had prophesized.
