Release from suffering by worshipping God TenchiKanenoKami

You can receive God TenchiKanenoKami's blessings.

03/12/2026

Konko Daijin speaks about unlimited blessings from Kami. If you receive blessings by practicing faith and then sincerely give teachings to others with the same heart as Kami's, you too can walk the true way of faith. Passing on Konko Daijin's words without changing their meaning and helping others to practice true faith will make Kami happy. This will also make you a kami. You should not consider yourself above Kami, even if you become one.
[Teachings of Konko Daijin #61]
(from Teachings of Ikigami Konko Daijin)

For the happiness of humankind, in whatever era it may be, this teaching is explaining the eternal, immortal truth in simple words that anyone can understand. First, I have to receive blessings myself. Faith is so wonderful that you are pleased to communicate it heart to heart, just as fellow sufferers pitying each other. You see that is how you become a kami and also how to show your appreciation to Kami. Feeling that my words are saving people would be feeling that I am above Kami.
[Mini-teaching of Rev. Soichiro Otsubo] 7/12/s46(1971)
(from Mini-teaching of the Rev. Soichiro Otsubo)
(Translated by the Rev. Richard Dusek)

You cannot control your life the way you want. Know that your life is of Kami and the world.
[General Principles #12]
(from Teachings of Ikigami Konko Daijin)

By realizing the benevolence of Kami you can finally live a life that serves to repay these divine graces. Feeling the benefits of one's country, you take up a spirit to be of service to society and will be able to fulfill the job of a citizen.
[Mini-teaching of Rev. Soichiro Otsubo] 7/24/s59(1984)

(from Mini-teaching of the Rev. Soichiro Otsubo)

Above all, you should enrich your faith. Practicing faith in everyday life is important. Rich soil will be productive without fertilization, and so it is with faith.
[Teachings of Konko Daijin #50]
(from Teachings of Ikigami Konko Daijin)

PRINCIPLE CULTIVATION FOR WORSHIPING THE MOUNTAIN OF DIFFICULTY

The essence of cultivating one's spirit is to single-heartedly train oneself by worshiping the very difficulties of life. One will be able to comprehend the Divine Will and be awakened to Divine Love. Faith is reinforced (unwavering) when one has received this Divine Love.
[Mini-teaching of Rev. Soichiro Otsubo] 7/10/s57(1982)
(from Mini-teaching of the Rev. Soichiro Otsubo)
(Translated by the Rev. Richard Dusek)

03/09/2026

As time goes by, this faith will become more widely accepted by the world. Practice this faith patiently.
[Teachings of Konko Daijin #56]
(from Teachings of Ikigami Konko Daijin)

At the same time as "this faith becomes more widely accepted by the world," you should enlarge and broaden your heart-mind. As you patiently persist in the joy of faith, a fountain of joy will develop deep in your heart. It's regrettable to just forget in vain as time goes by.
ONE WALKS THE ROAD ALONE

Do not think that you give birth through your own strength. Everything is done through the blessings of the Parent Kami.
[ How to Develop Faith #38]
(from Teachings of Ikigami Konko Daijin)

When the urge comes, even though you were not inclined, you can't but be moved to do it. Though you don't wish to, you give birth; though you want to, you can not. The power to exert oneself comes about of itself. It is when you realize that all of the exertion is Kami's sacred working, that you get the feeling you just have to receive the blessings of Kami for everything.
The recent slogan is "Put Faith To Work". However, when you're based on the solemn way of Kami, then for the first time you are able to reach the true blessings of the faith you put to work.

03/07/2026

Do not be afraid to be different from others. You cannot practice faith without being different. A person who is different is one who has a pure heart.
[Teachings of Konko Daijin #73]
(from Teachings of Ikigami Konko Daijin)

"A person who is different is one who has a pure heart." A pure heart is intent on the truth, on being straight. People who do what is right to such an extent that they have to be called "different" are few indeed. Asking a student which is important studies or faith, he'll say studies, of course, because it's the duty of a student. However, the point is that studies must also lead to people's happiness. And faith should be the foundation of that happiness. If someone put faith before studies, it would probably be thought different and weird. Faith and studies, studies and faith -- both become one. From there a world will open that has no antagonism between faith and studies. Such is faith. Faith is the heart which believes.

From now on, you need not be concerned with the Days and Directions. Follow the faith that Tenchi Kane No Kami has taught.
[General Principles #11]
(from Teachings of Ikigami Konko Daijin)

From the constricting inconvenient ways of the world, which feels something unharmful is harmful and teaches the fearless as fearful, revert to the original state of human beings. It is the way to freely enjoy the pleasure of communing with the universe, whereby both Kami and the believer are fulfilled. It can be said that what Konko Daijin has taught is the religious spirit which precedes religions. Through such faith let's emerge from the constraining precepts of religion. And then revert to what has been taught.

Without virtue, you will worry. With divine virtue, you will not worry.
[Teachings of Konko Daijin #54]
(from Teachings of Ikigami Konko Daijin)

Let me first receive Divine Virtue. Someone said that the Konko faith is the way of turning everything into blessings. At Airaku, we are taught the way of considering everything virtuous. Before anything else, begin by mastering the principle that "All is Divine Love."
[Mini-teaching of Rev. Soichiro Otsubo] 7/14/s57(1982)
(from Mini-teaching of the Rev. Soichiro Otsubo)
(Translated by the Rev. Richard Dusek)

03/04/2026

Those who practice faith should be aware of the true virtue of Kami.
[General Principles #17]
(from Teachings of Ikigami Konko Daijin)

Without spiritual training you will not be able to feel true divine virtue. You have to receive divine virtue, not just know about it. Although you may be in the midst of divine virtue, unless you have spiritual training, you wouldn't feel it. Where true divine virtue is felt is born a spirit that's gracious for divine bounty. When applying oneself with such a gracious heart to train the spirit, anyone can be sure of receiving divine virtue. Upon acquiring it, one finally gets to know true divine virtue. The conclusion is for understanding of divine virtue, begin by training the spirit and finish by training the spirit.

If you want to meet Kami, just step out of your house and look around you. The sky above is Kami and the ground below is Kami.
[Teachings of Konko Daijin #12]
(from Teachings of Ikigami Konko Daijin)

"In the divine universe speak not of want" are the words of Reverend Ishibashi, the founding minister of the Kurume Church. That kind of spirit is what I feel was the basis for his receiving such great virtue. For years it has been said, "Swear on the divine universe" or "Heaven knows, earth knows and I myself know." Without such a heart you will not walk the true path. Receiving the protection of heaven and the blessings of earth, every single thing between heaven and earth is nourished and developed. By realizing these virtues, all things will be thoroughly arranged.
[Mini-teaching of Rev. Soichiro Otsubo] 7/29/s44(1969)

Pray for your good health.
[How To Develop Faith #16]
(from Teachings of Ikigami Konko Daijin)

No matter how painful or tiring the managing of my health, I never let out a complaint. I received, "speaking of being tired or in pain will call the gods of death." Since then I've received blessings of not speaking of tiredness and pain. It's quite a good training I'm undergoing that I should express my gratitude. This goes just the same way for even money matters. By feeling or saying you're in financial trouble or "there's nothing worst than poverty," regardless of what it is, receiving it thankfully then there will be a response from Kami without fail.

03/01/2026

Those who practice faith need to be sincere in whatever they do.
[How To Develop Faith #7]
(from Teachings of Ikigami Konko Daijin)

There's the saying, "With victory tie on the warrior's helmet," but one mustn't leave the heart unguarded with thoughts that one's faith has become tranquil, or that everything is all right. When an interest coming from the heart becomes one with what it echoes on the outside, it becomes a symphony with rhythm, and gives birth to a superb drama between the believer and Kami. Without making it difficult, faith is the diligence to have it become one's body and blood.
[Mini-teaching of Rev. Soichiro Otsubo] 7/8/s60(1985)
