"Of course the pen in my hand writes the spiritual teachings in this book, but once I sit at my desk to write for it, I am no longer the ordinary “I.” Holy spirit comes over and inspires me. The strong words for my weak character pour out from my pen. I was surprised at my own words pouring down into the “Holy Song for the Seicho-No-Ie” which has appeared in the House Organ No. 2. When I was at Kameoka I was one day concentrating my mind to write on our teachings. Mr. Kato who had the faculty of clairvoyance was sitting beside me, and told me afterward that he saw a spiritual man quite different from myself writing at the desk. I do not know if we may believe his words. But if there is any founder of the spiritual teachings of “Seicho-No-Ie” it can not be this earthly I."
