Dear friends and members of the New York center,
On a recent Wednesday purification point practice and study class, we high-lighted the stomach. We were able to give a clear and simple illustration of the basic principles of our practice through this class:

• Most of us are aware of the sensitive nature of this organ, how emotion and temperament affect the condition of the stomach. Medical toxins that accumulate and harden also affect the condition of the stomach. 20% of all stomach problems stem from these two causes.
• The root cause of 80% of stomach problems are found in the spiritual realm (of these, 80% are ancestor related).

   Your inner attitude is a major focus of our practice. You can come to the center to exchange divine light for years but you will never experience change until you improve your inner attitude. Once you improve your inner attitude, change can come over-night. Do not fool yourself about this very important point. Raising your hand is one half of our practice. The other half is working on improving your inner attitude. It is a medical fact that high levels of stress and anxiety lead to stomach ulcers. A life of constant tension shows up as hard and tense muscles in your back. If you are always nervous or worried, you may be experiencing stomach problems. You are full of negative vibration and emotion. When you allow yourself to be influenced by negative vibration coming from the spiritual realm, this is called spiritual disturbance.

   What attitude will you take? If you feel your negative karma and disturbance controlling you, you have a passive and negative attitude. You have started on the wrong foot and you are already a looser in the fight to solve your spiritual disturbance. Win the fight to solve you spiritual disturbance and take the attitude that you will be victorious at any cost. This is an active and positive attitude.
Practice the ten points given to us by the Acting Oshienushisama with an active and positive attitude. When you are attached to something that you don’t have, you have stress and you are negative. Work on eliminating these attachments for a stress-free life. You will be so grateful when you succeed. You will solve your spiritual disturbance this way.
After taking care of 80% of all problems in this way, what will remain are the hardened medical toxins. These need to be purified and melted with God’s divine light. This way you take care of 100% of stomach problems.

   These are the basic principles of our practice, as illustrated though the different conditions of stomach problems. I ask that you have a clear understanding of these principles. I pray that you will elevate your spiritual level, and participate in the further expansion of the divine light and principles.
