Byakko (白光) is a Japanese word meaning ‘white light.’ It is the clear and free-flowing light emitting from the deepest and highest condition of a human being. This publication is for people who wish to call forth this pure light in their daily lives, letting it create a bright future for humanity and the planet Earth.

Daily Reflections

by Masami Saionji

It is your casual, everyday behavior that reveals your character and quality.

dr_design

If we want to change our lives for the better, it is not our work or our environment that we must change, but our own daily words, actions, and habits.

External problems are mirrors that reflect internal problems. If you repeatedly judge and condemn your words and actions from the distant past, you are unknowingly wounding and disparaging your own divine nature.

The shared mission of all human beings is for each of us to polish and uplift our own character without being entrapped by selfish desires, and to reawaken to our innate divine nature. That is all. There is nothing else.

There are absolutely no limits to your life. If there should be any limits, it simply means that you are placing them on yourself.

dr_design

Occasionally, we are gripped by a momentary fear that we might be rushing toward some kind of terrible fate. At such times, the Divine Spark IN instantly redirects everything toward a bright future and guides us toward perfect fulfillment.

To open the tightly sealed door to our own divine sanctity, we cannot rely or depend on any sort of sage, spiritual leader, doctor, or scientist. We must become our own saviors through our own consciousness and firm belief, and through our prayers and our ultimate truth. And the method that enables us to do this is the Divine Spark IN.

Positive and Negative Energy Fields

by Masami Saionji

The barren land of dark thoughts

I have been feeling tremendously concerned about the future of humanity on planet Earth. If we human beings continue to think and live as we do now, will there be any future for us at all? If people do not wake up to their inner divine truth, and continue to live only to satisfy their greed and self-interest, humanity’s future will be bleak, and each person’s heart will drift further and further from our divine source.

At this time, masses of people continue to fix their attention upon dark circumstances, and that negative energy controls all that goes on in their minds. In everything they do, so many people seem detached and apathetic. Although each human being holds within them a limitless treasure trove of divine wisdom and creativity, they turn their eyes away from it, refusing to believe that it
