The 2026 New Year Gathering will be held on Sunday, February 15th, 22nd, and March 1st in USA.

Experience an inspiring lecture by Keiko Takahashi sensei.

Each year, GLA hosts its New Year Gathering, welcoming people from all walks of life to reflect on the year ahead and set a fresh course for living.

The 2026 New Year Gathering will begin in New York on Sunday, February 15^th, followed by gatherings in San Francisco on Sunday, February 22^nd, and Los Angeles on Sunday, March 1^st (see details below).

At each gathering, participants will view a special video lecture in which Keiko Takahashi sensei shares profound insights and guiding principles for living with clarity and purpose in the new year.

A Divine Truth Card inscribed with the words of Bodaishin will be given to all participants.

Each card features one of the Twelve Bodaishin, guiding principles for living the new year. Bodaishin is the heart that seeks one’s true self, loves others, and contributes to harmony in the world, expressed through twelve symbolic aspects such as the Moon, Fire, Sky, Mountain, and so on.

You won’t know which card you’ll be given until the moment you receive it. In receiving it, however, many people discover a necessity and profound meaning in the message and take it as a personal guide for their lives.

Through the words of the Divine Truth Card, the heart is purified, challenges are eased, and new paths begin to open. The card serves as a sacred talisman and a source of inner guidance.

The New Year Gathering is open to everyone. We warmly invite you to join us with your family and loved ones at the venue nearest you.
