As I was wondering how best to bring this book to a close, a phrase suddenly arose within me:
"Returning to the Origin"
Though it appeared unexpectedly, I would like to conclude this book by writing down the thoughts now quietly emerging within me.
The origin of humanity is the warmth of the mother.
And here, "mother" does not simply mean one's physical mother or father and mother in the ordinary sense.
Our true origin is the world of warmth itself.
We were born from warmth.
And we are now in the process of returning to that warmth.
Yes — human beings are travelers who emerged from warmth and are now journeying back toward it.
Indeed, our true origin was the world of warmth.
And to say that we "came out from" that warmth means that we abandoned it.
Some may say that human beings still possess kindness and compassion within themselves.
But the "warmth" I speak of — the warmth humanity has cast aside — refers, as I have repeated throughout this book, to our true nature, our true self.
Humanity has lost sight of its own essence.
No — the situation is even more serious than that.
We have become unable even to realize that we have lost it.
That is humanity's present condition.
But will such a condition continue forever?
No.
And because it will not continue forever, tremendous events will unfold across Japan and throughout the world.
The signs are already appearing.
And yet we must not overlook the fact that humanity still notices almost nothing.
Truly, we have not yet awakened to anything essential.
Some people struggle desperately just to survive each day.
Others live comfortably and contentedly.
And then, suddenly, they encounter something overwhelming.
For those who have never learned to observe their own hearts, how long will it take before they can finally accept the reality unfolding before them?
Only after repeating such experiences again and again does humanity slowly begin sensing something deeper.
And into hearts that have forgotten their origin, there comes yet another great shock urging a return to that origin.
Consciousness that has forgotten its source continually creates negative energy and amplifies it further and further.
That amplified negative energy spreads across the Earth and is released endlessly into the universe itself.
And throughout that process, countless events unfold upon this planet.
Needless to say, unprecedented natural disasters are among them.
What we see now may still only be the opening stages.
Yet humanity's endless desires do not stop there.
People continue praying.
Praying for peace.
Praying for security and comfort.
And through those prayers, negative energy continues pouring into the universe.
Within that process, humanity will encounter upheavals on a vast cosmic scale.
Cataclysms so immense that they become inseparable from death itself.
And yet those very upheavals are, in truth, positive — overwhelmingly positive — energies and vibrations urging us to return to our origin.
Those energies will embrace the universe now covered in negativity.
And within our own hearts, once filled completely with negative energy, positive energy will begin acting as well.
Still, whether all consciousness will respond to this call to return to the origin remains uncertain.
Some may remain fixed within negative energy.
Others, however, will respond.
And those responding consciousnesses will unite together and continue the journey of returning to the origin.
Let us move beyond the dimension called the third dimension.
