there is so much to celebrate in this moment of eternity, this moment of the astonishing light of our interbeing…
the state of aloha is still alive today following day before yesterday’s celebration as many across the planet come to honor Masahisa Goi with Global Peace Pole Day on what would be his 107th birthday… this movement began in the Asaksa district of Tokyo where Masahisa Goi often called Goisen was born in 1916… growing up to be a mystic, a visionary, a spiritual teacher and a great lover of literature and the arts, he was a prolific writer of books and thousands of articles, but most importantly, he is known for authoring the universal message, invocation and prayer:
May peace prevail on earth.
Goi was 28 when the atomic bombs fell on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki
which was a pivotal moment that shaped his lifelong mission as a peacemaker…
soon after the surrender of Japan, Goi immersed himself in spiritual studies and healing work and at age 33 he reached the so called enlightened state of being and
real-eyesed that Japan has a mission to send a strong message of peace out to the world…
with much suffering and poverty in post war Japan, his loving presence brought great comfort to the hearts and minds of many who gathered around him; his ultimate teaching was to ask everyone to immerse themselves wholeheartedly in the daily recitation of the peace prayer, may peace prevail on earth, which fosters personal as well as planetary peace leading to the simultaneous awakening of the individual self as well as the conscious awakening of humanity…
his grassroots movement now involves people from 193 countries who have planted over 250,000 needles or peace poles in the earth over the last fifty years to ground and root this lasting peace in the stillpoint of creation…may we take this moment to generate and re-generate waves of brilliant light…
as we close this annual celebration of Goisen and his song of peace that cleanses us and activates our personal and collective nervous system to flow in harmony with all our relations, let us close our eyes and tune into the one cosmic heart where peace prevails for a moment of peace for the cosmos…
