Fuji sanctuary, April 1st, ceremony for peace and consciousness evolution

Like each month a beautiful ceremony for world peace unfolded at Fuji sanctuary. In service to humanity, prayers for peace and love to prevail as well as focused prayers for specific areas of the world were offered. In closing and as always, much light from the universal Love Source was wisely anchored on this exquisitely fine energy spot. 

The Fuji ceremony is joined by thousands of people worldwide, who attune to the energy thru their various prayers for peace, enriching and increasing the vibrancy of this prayer circle on the planet.  

This time a group of people joined from El Teide, a major volcanoe in the Canaries, while others joined thru a wonderful event organized in Milan, with the Japanese community commemorating 3.11, around various cultural events including the prayer of peace for the Nations. Many others connected in nature reverberating the vibrations of love and peace to humanity, the Earth and its life. 

We invite you to connect during these global prayers for world peace in any manner you like, through prayers, meditations, in silence, in nature...  

Symphony of Peace Prayers, May 20th hosted by Byakko, is an excellent occasion to join in this ever growing circle of peace, in planetary service. Please browse the blog for information on Symphony of Peace Prayers 2012.

Celebrating the New Year at Fuji Sanctuary

Like each year and for the past several decades, a large gathering to welcome the New Year took place on January 8th at Fuji Sanctuary. More than 4000 people gathered to celebrate the start of the year and to participate, along Mrs. Saionji, in several hours of prayers for world peace, prayers of gratitude to nature and other work of intense energy. This energy work realized by all in attendance thru the use of specific mudras, is aimed at diluting some of the strongest karmically loaded events that have the potential to manifest today on planet earth at this time of Great Shift. 

 To keep thoughts and words focused on the highest of vibration possible is at the core of the teachings of Mrs. Saionji. The following sentence is only a recommendation, an easy yet strong balanced 'mantra', we invite you to make use of it in your own way and in all situations. 'Everything is sure to get better! Everything is absolutely getting better! Accomplished! Dai Joju!'. (Dai Joju means accomplished.)
