December 30, 2018, Meeting of Explorer of the 21st century (GLA Chukyo Hall; broadcast live to 95 locations nationwide.)

Many of you who have undertaken to copy the Map of Life, remark that it now comes to mind as you confront various situations and circumstances. The fact that this happens means that as you encounter a situation, you are, at that very moment, viewing it from a holistic perspective that encompasses everything from the start of your life to the direction your life should take from past to future.

The two ends of the Map of Life transcend a single life to open the way to our past and future lives. What this means is that, right here and now is where we see a meeting of a super-past transcending the past and a super-future transcending the future. And in turn, this means GLA members are on the verge of attaining a new spiritual level and wisdom in which you can live in the present as an eternal life.

Through 2018, we have made significant progress in the three pillars of life, the Study of the Past, Study of the Present, and Study of the Future.

First of all, the Map of Life merges with the Nine Stages of Enlightenment to give us a multifaced perspective on life.

The key phrase “Best Life” in the new book published this year (2018) refers to the Study of the Future of life. In particular, it refers to a perspective on a complete life that portends new developments in the Study of Life that can be foreseen as we draw forth the Maxima of our life.

As regards the Study of the Present, it should be noted that this Study will help us to achieve further evolution of our Method for Engaging Chaos.

The standard Chaos that we are endowed with in our daily lives are categorized into 4 types: Chaos of Events, Chaos of Trials as Callings, Chaos of Themes, and Chaos of Connections. It should also be noted that these types of standard Chaos are the result of a buildup of moment to moment Chaos.

As we prepare ourselves by crystallizing Chaos, the Great Chaos that occurs only once every 10 years appears, and we come to realize that beyond the Great Chaos is the Supreme Chaos of life. This is the missing link that connects the moment to moment Chaos of our lives with the Supreme Chaos of life and means that every moment and second of our life is merged with our life mission. This missing link shows that a path has been created connecting the boundaries and wisdom of living as an eternal life to our concrete daily practices, transcending philosophy and ideas.

This is what we have achieved in 2018.
