Message from the head of the

Overseas Department Tenrikyo 173, September 26

Thank you for all of your daily efforts in your various areas and positions.

The extreme summer heat has finally dissipated and it has suddenly become very au-

tumn-like in Oyasato. Today's Service, being on a beautiful Sunday, attracted many

followers from all over the world to return and worship single-heartedly in the Ser-

vice, with the Shinbashira as the core.

The Shinbashira, in his prayer, said "while looking closely at the confusion of this

world, beginning with myself, head ministers and yoboku, we should have an eye to-

wards the future. In order for God the Parent to show us the Joyous Life world, we

should continually put efforts into the overseas mission."

He also mentioned, "This month is the month of putting strong efforts in spreading

the fragrance. The last three days of the month will be the All Tenrikyo Nioigake

Days and the truth of the teachings will be spread all over the world."

Lastly, he prayed, "The path will widen as time passes. Please guide us so that we

may live in the Joyous Life even a day sooner. "

The monthly sermon was given by Honbu-in, Rev. Yoshimi Maegawa. The reve-

rend, talked about a doctor passing away for rebirth at age 32, and who wrote the book

titled, “To Asuka, & to my unborn children”. In the book, there's a section called "ob-

viously," and they talked about their illness and troubles. He talked about his own ill-

ness and about his role as a guardian, citing verses from the Ofudesaki and Osashizu.

He also wanted to point out how grateful we should be to feel "atarimae." It is due

to God the Parent's strong intention that we are here today. To respond to this paren-

tal heart, Rev. Maegawa said it is important to follow the path of repayment for bless-

ings and to exert one's sincerity to the utmost truth.

As was mentioned in the Prayer, from the basis of bearing in mind the overseas

mission of the path, let us do our best in repaying the intention of the Parent during

the three days of the All Tenrikyo Nioigake days starting from the day after tomorrow.

Moreover, many followers from overseas will return for the Autumn Grand Ser-

September Monthly Service Prayer

Before You, God the Parent, Tenri-O-no-Mikoto, who resides in

his shrine, I, (Michihito Hamada, bishop of the Mission

Headquarters of Hawaii) pray with reverence.

God the Parent, as Your overflowing warmth, which grants us

daily the free use of our bodies, embraces us, we advance toward

spiritual maturity as we strive toward the realization of the Joyous

Life world receiving the guidance of the Ever-living Oyasama.

These boundless blessings are truly more than we can expect. As

we direct our constant focus toward the teachings, we proceed in

high spirits toward the path of sincerity applying our effort with a

mind focused on salvation. Today is the day we are granted to

conduct the September monthly service at this mission

headquarters. The service performers will unite their hearts to

perform the seated service and Teodori joyously in high spirits.

Today, as you view the brothers and sisters of the path who have

looked forward to this day singing the songs of the service in unison

with hearts filled with gratitude for Your parental love, we hope that

You can be spirited as well.

On August 20th, the 40th annual bazaar was held and we were

blessed with many attending. Also, on September 6th, 60 people

participated in the All Tenrikyo Hinokishin Day on the island of

Oahu.

Let us as Yoboku ponder on the many grievous events, which

we have been shown throughout the world, as the reflection of the

dust in our minds, and remembering not to misuse the mind we are

freely allowed, we vow to proceed spiritedly in accord with Your

intention toward the path of world salvation. May You, God the

Parent, accept our sincerity, and we ask that you guide us toward

reconstructing the world where we can spend our days living in

harmony by helping one another. Together with everyone present, I

pray for these blessings.

Mission HQ September Monthly Service Sermon

Rev. Motoko Iwata Head Minister of Wahiawa Church

“On the Way to the Final Goal”

At this time, together with all of you,

we have joyously completed the Septem-

ber Monthly Service and I would like to

express my heartfelt gratitude for this. To-

day, I have been assigned to deliver the

monthly sermon and although there may be

places that may be difficult to understand,

please bear with me for a short while.

Today’s topic is Chapter Eight of the

Doctrine titled, “On the Way to the Final

Goal.” Today’s translation is being done

by Colin Saito.

Chapter Eight, “On the Way to the Final

Goal,” teaches about receiving guidance

through illness and troubles and while lis-

tening to the teachings of God the Parent,

we begin to put into practice the Divine

Model of Oyasama and show our spiritual

progress.

First of all, allow me to read the first

part of Chapter Eight. “ (page 58, para-

gragh 3)

“Our minds, however, are ever change-

able. Our minds in the morning are not al-

ways the same in the evening. We are af-

fected by events that occur around us, and

our minds, bright in the morning, may be-

come darkened by evening. Though once

deeply moved by the teachings and deter-

mined to be devoted, in time our joyful and

bright spirits may wane. There may also be

times when, despite having been saved by

divine grace, we falter because of some

new illness or other troubles. In such cir-

cumstances, however, our path of faith is

always to reflect on our minds, to under-

stand that all occurrences are from the will

of God the Parent, and to live with joy and

brightness without allowing our spirits to

fall. This way of settling the mind is taught

as tanno.”

Upon receiving an illness or trouble and

5

when our hearts become unsettled, at such

times, to always reflect on our minds and

come to regard the knot as the intent of God

the Parent, without giving up, while nurtur-

ing a mind of joy and to live cheerfully, is

definitely not an easy thing to do.

Luckily, in Hawaii, there are many mi-

nisters who have faith in God the Parent

and have followed the Divine Model of

Oyasama. Upon being assigned the topic

“On the Way to the Final Goal,” the first

thing that crossed my mind was 69 years

ago, December 7th, 1941, the time right

after the attack on Pearl Harbor, when our

predecessors were detained and then

shipped out to the mainland internment

camps. It is impossible to talk about the

whole story of life at the internment camps

in such a short time, but focusing on just a

fragment of the suffering experienced by

our predecessors, I would like to share with

you some data along with my thoughts and

feelings.

In the book, “The 50 Year History of

Tenrikyo Hawaii Dendocho (Mission

Headquarters),” allow me to read the part

where the names of the missionaries who

were detained on the mainland were writ-

ten. First of all, beginning with head minis-

ters; Sakujiro Ueno, Matagoro Mikuni, Hi-

dekichi Nakamoto, Kaneki Honda, Ma-

sayuki Iwata, Kinzaemon Odachi, Hikojuu

Takemoto, and Miyuki Kawasaki. Next,

successors to head ministers; Naoichi Seto.

Then, heads of missions, Manabu Yama,

and Shozaemon Masaki. Next, spouse of

head minister Ryosaku Kawasaki. And fi-

nally, church director Ichiro Genseki. These

were the people who were arrested. At the

churches, the authorities came and the pros-

ecution began by confiscating doctrinal ma-

terials and prohibiting missionary work.”

In addition, Kinzaemon Odachi of Hilo

Church, due to an illness, passed away at

the age of 56 while in detention at the Santa

Fe Camp in New Mexico.

Life in the detention camps must have

been very miserable & tragic but I wonder

how they managed to pass through it all.

We can get some insight from the second

Bishop of the Mission Headquarters of

America, Bishop Masaharu Hashimoto,

who wrote in his diary “Nankin Roku Nen”

(Six years of Confinement) and his autobi-

ography “Shogyo,” about the severe situa-

tion in the camp at that time. In the book,

“Hawaii no Akebono,” about Sakujiro &

Tsuji Ueno, on page 86, allow me to bor-

row and read one section that gives such a

description.

(Unofficial translation) Life while in de-

tention, being provided with food, clothing

& shelter was supposed to be guaranteed

like a life in heaven but in actuality, it was

like being in hell. It was unavoidable that

both body as well as spirit of the people

was forced into a life of imprisonment.

Many fellow internees harbored immeasur-

able grudges inside their hearts and passed

away while being detained behind those

son came to the church and told the head

minister that he had to go to the Immigra-

tion Office and thus was taken away. After

that, the church was closed for four years

and leaving his wife and three children

back, the head minister was interned in the

camp on the mainland. At the church, six

family members lived and worked together

and took care of the church during his ab-

sence. They had to deal with being looked

down upon and despised as foreigners of an

enemy country and they had to tolerate be-

ing prejudiced against, but the followers

kept their spirits up and applied their efforts

sincerely. In 1945, the head minister was

released and returned home.”

Leaving Japan and going to Hawaii as

missionaries, they barely got started when

the war began suddenly and at the same

time, causing them to be arrested. It was

unavoidable that they were forced to live in

a detention camp on the mainland and they

probably did not even dream that such a

situation could ever happen. Again, the

wives, family, and followers who were left

back in Hawaii had to go through much suf-

fering. There was severe persecution by the

authorities and the church was forced to

close its doors, which caused the members

to suddenly stop coming. Even in such a

situation, everyone desperately protected

God and the church. When the ministers

returned back to Hawaii, they had to start

over again from nothing. When I think of

the suffering of these people, I become

barbed wire fences. Also, those that became

mentally ill were sent to a hospital in the

State of Kentucky. Those that were kept

within the confines of the camp for a long

time, though they did not realize it, were

definitely affected with psychological prob-

lems. Yet, within all these suffering, there

were those that persevered and endured by

diligently reading literature and doing re-

search and this was all possible due to their

strong faith. Surely, I believe that this was

due to the unlimited blessing of God the

Parent and Oyasama.”

Such an explanation was written in the

book. From this short excerpt alone, we can

get a glimpse of life while in detention and

grasp the harshness of such a life.

My husband’s father, the first head mi-

nister of Honolulu-ko Church, was one of

those who experienced life in detention. But

during his life he hardly talked about the

severe times of being in detention and only

to those in his own family circle, I heard

that he would say, “I was not treated too

badly.” But, just by the fact that he chose

not to speak about it, tells me how great the

suffering must have been. Next, I would

like to talk about the situation on December

7th and read an excerpt from the “50 Year

History of Tenrikyo Hawaii Dendocho.”

“On December 7, 1941, the Japanese

Navy attacked Pearl Harbor and that day

was full of confusion in the city. In the

evening around 10 p.m., a Caucasian person

and a second generation Japanese FBI per-

es) and the Welcome Party for overseas followers will be held the day before the

Grand Service on 10/25.

We would like to have as many participants as possible so please spread the word

to let everyone in the congregation know what will take place.

Finally, I would like to report that on 9/26, Mr. Motomichi Uemura was assigned

to the Translation Section (Portuguese) of the Overseas Department.

my daily life, I sometimes waver in my ef-

forts. But, when I think of the people who

passed through during the wartime and the

suffering they experienced, even though I

may be feeling down and depressed, I be-

come encouraged and change to a bright

and positive mind. It is the legacy of such

unseen and precious treasures, along with

the joy of faith of the predecessors of the

path, which I cherish and appreciate very

much.

Thank you for your kind attention.

overwhelmed with emotion.

Yet, despite having to go through

such harsh conditions back in those days, I

believe that it is because the predecessors

diligently strove to lean on God the Parent

and focus on Oyasama’s protection, that we

have the path we have in Hawaii today! The

following excerpt from page 58 of the Doc-

trine teaches, “to understand that all occur-

rences are from the will of God the Parent,

and to live with joy and brightness without

allowing our spirits to fall,” gives us strong

Dear Friends,

Continuing to focus on doing nioigake (sprinkling the fragrance of the teach-

ings) to the community in unity, instead of working for the bottom line we were

blessed with a steady stream of bazaar patrons despite the morning rain and the

live broadcast of the Little League baseball Hawaii team competing for the

World Series Championship. For the most part, we kept prices the same as last

year. Booth heads continued to make strides in reaching out to friends, family

and church members, to help at the bazaar resulting in requests for the new ba-

zaar T-shirts totaling over 400!
