We would like to introduce a physical experience reported from the Nagoya Prayer Hall. A-san works near RHK’s Nagoya Prayer Hall. There are many young employees at A-san’s work and often times not being able to work as quickly as they do makes A-san feel miserable. In the middle of December last year, A-san thought about quitting the job because he felt that he could no longer mentally catch up with the pace of those younger people at work. That night, A-san went to sleep holding the Support Association Amulet in his arms. The following morning, A-san heard a gentle voice of a young man from the Amulet, saying “You should not escape from the things you are not good at.” It enabled A-san to rebuild his mind, “That’s right, I should try again!” and he was able to work feeling refreshed that day. However, as days went by, he felt discouraged again and this time he really made up his mind
to leave the company. That night, again he went to sleep holding the Support Association Amulet tightly in his arms as if to plead for Goshugojinsama’s help. Then, the next morning, an extremely gentle voice was heard again from the Amulet. This time, it said “Those around you will not change. It is you who must change…” In that moment, A-san was truly able to reflect upon his frame of mind. From the first day of work this year, A-san became able to appreciate the fact that he has been given a job and that he can make efforts to catch up with those young people at work. Thank you very much. A-san has been granted his personal goal for this year from Goshugojinsama: “I shall not run away from the things that I am not good at. I shall change.” He pledges to move forward by working harder and with passion and conviction. Thank you very much, Goshugojinsama and Nidaisama.
