Seeing Red

anger

Mahikari has an interesting attitude to – well, a *great* many things – but their thought-terminating clichés are pretty top notch. Don’t ever be angry, or else you’re poisoning yourself and wrecking your family. Always be smiling and bright. Always smiling Yōkōshi. There you go. Just have that running through your head constantly, and you’ll be just fine.

The following is from the Primary Kenshu lecturer’s textbook (pp 80–81), to be read verbatim to victims I mean new recruits:

Human beings also generate poison when angry.

That is why those who lose their temper lose out. This is why the lifespan of short-tempered people is short. It is because in such people's bodies more poison is generated than in other people. So, such a person accumulates a lot of poison in him during his lifetime.

If a person becomes impure it is necessary for God to clean his cells to let him achieve his natural lifespan, so a major cleaning will occur.

In other words, he'll get a major illness. So from now on everyone, please remember that if you get angry, you'll lose out.

If your mother gets angry at you, just think “Oh, I'm really sorry, she's generating poison because of me. I must give her Okiyome later”. But if you tune in and respond angrily, “What do you mean!” etc., you also generate poison and therefore you also must receive Misogi, so both of you lose out.

Between husband and wife, if the husband loses his temper, his wife shouldn't lose her temper as well but remain smiling. Yōkōshi no Tomo don't get angry. Just laugh all year round like “always smiling Yōkōshi”. So, in olden days people used to say “Happiness comes to a house of laughter”. Well, they said it very well, I think. Because there won't be Misogi, happiness will come.

To complete your natural lifespan you must acquire a calm, harmonious, peaceful mind.

My slightly deranged ‘it’s not a fish’ explanation of God’s cleaning/misogi harahi is over here.

Yōkōshi no Tomo = Bright / sunlight people in Mahikari speak.
