Two types of Ten Myō
Next, there are two kinds of Ten Myō.
They are called the “Ten Trace Myō”
and “Ten Real Myō.”
・The “Ten Trace Myō” is the
“Ten Myō that has been preached,
summarizing General World,”
・The ”Ten Real Myō” is the
“Ten Myō that has been preached,
summarizing the Buddha’s Border.”
Since the Ten Myō that I have talked
about so far is the “Ten Trace Myō”
that has been preached, summarizing
General World,” it could be explained
through General Corporate Activities.
On the other hand, the “Ten Real Myō”
is the law that has been preached,
summarizing the “Buddha’s Border.”
In that case, the meaning of
“Buddha’s Border” is the case when you
act with the Law of Origin.
Because the Law of Origin is the law that
penetrates the origin of all phenomena,
if you act with this law, you will be able to
stand on the position to move
all phenomena in the phenomenal world
through the power of this law.
Then the process of action becomes
a little different from the Ten Trace Myō.
In other words, “Ten Real Myō” expresses
the process of action when standing on
Buddha’s Border in terms of ten laws.
The Right column of the table below is
the name of the “Ten Real Myō”.
If you compare it with the Ten Trace Myō
(Left column) that I have talked about
so far, you will notice that some names
are different.
Relationship between the two
The relationship between the
“Ten Trace Myō’ and the “Ten Real Myō’ is
that of Blueprints and Buildings.
The “Ten Trace Myō” is the blueprint and
the “Ten Real Myō” is the actual building.
In that case, the building and the blueprint
always must be consistent in terms of
content. This is because the two contents
are the same, if you don’t understand
something about the building the
“Ten Real Myō”, you can open the blueprint
of the “Ten Trace Myō” and clarify it.
Certainly the names of the two are partly
different, but the contents of the two are
essentially the same.
So why are some names different?
Please read article
“Comparison of the ‘Ten Trace Myō’
and the ‘Ten Real Myō’“
that follows this article.
The Meaning of
the Ten Real Myō Name
Now let’s talk about the Ten Real Myō.
First, for what purpose was the
Ten Real Myō preached?
The Ten Real Myō is basically the
“Ten Myō that has been preached,
summarizing the Buddha’s Border.”
Therefore, when you hold the Law of
Origin and act on the Buddha’s Border,
you can make the merit of the Buddha’s
Border to be appeared in your life and
in the environmental world around you,
and open up happiness.
The law shows this process in ten steps.
1 The Real Causes Myō
2 The Real Results Myō
3 The Real Nation Myō
4 The Real Reaction Myō
5 The Real Phenomena Myō
6 The Real Preachment Myō
7 The Real Succession Myō
8 The Real Resuscitation Myō
9 The Real Lifespan Myō
10 The Real Merit Myō
*
What is
1. The Real Causes Myō?
In the name of The Ten Real Myō,
the first “The Real Causes Myō” is
the act of creating the “Real Cause”
in the phenomenal world.
Therefore, it is called “Real Causes“.
In that case, what do you imagine
when you hear “The act of creating
a real cause in the phenomenal
world”?
“The acts that undoubtedly create
a cause of happiness”,
“The acts that undoubtedly creates
a cause for peace”,
“Although there are various things
that happen along the way, but in the
end that is an act that will surely lead
to success, happiness and peace”,
etc.
You may have such an image?
That’s no doubt.
But why would such a thing be
feasible ?
That’s because you work with
“The Law of Origin” (Myō-Hō), that
governs all phenomena in the
phenomenal world.
Since the Law of Origin is the law
that penetrates the origin of all
phenomena, if you work and act
with the Law of Origin, you can
manifest its power. And through
that power, you will be able to
move all phenomena.
(You can know that by being able
to realize one event, you could have
moved all the phenomena behind it.)
As a result, the above “undoubted
perfect happiness” and “undoubted
perfect peace” will be realized.
2. The Real Results Myō
Next, The Real Results Myō means
that when you act with the Law of
Origin, doing a “Results action” is
The Real Results Myō.
In that case, any action has the
Causes action and the Results
action.
The Causes action is the “act of
creating causes” in your work.
The Results action is the “act of
doing the final finishing work.”
The Real Results Myō is the Results
action in this.
For instance, let’s say you do now,
a Causes action and a Results action
with the Law of Origin, in addition to
taking Causes and Results actions
in your workplace task,
The Causes action and Results action
that you take under the Law of Origin
mean “Act ① and Act ②’s Mercy and
Wisdom acton.”
(Act ①’s Mercy acton)
For instance, let’s say that you wished
“increase of good luck” for the people
you come in contact with every day
at work or in your daily life. / Also, you
provide courteous and helpful service
to consumers and customers
throughout your work. / Also, you do
a work with heart. / Also, you say in your
heart, “Sending Mercy to All living
existence.” And you send Mercy to
all living beings in the phenomenal world.
All of these actions are “Act ①’s
Mercy action“.
(Notes when you perform
a Mercy action)
However, there is a point to note
when performing Act ①’s Mercy action.
When you wish increase of people’s
good luck, you don’t have to specifically
think, “I want you to increase your good
luck in this way.”
Because each person has a different
way of increasing their good luck.
You leave to each person, “how to
increase their good luck.”
It is enough to wish and think in your
heart, “I wish increase of your good
luck,” and “please have a good life.”
That alone is enough for the persons
to increase their own good luck and
open up their happiness.
(Act ②’s Wisdom acton)
Next, “Act 2’s Wisdom action” is to
read well, think well, and understand well
the information of the Law of Origin.
And it is the act of speaking or telling
people about it.
*
When you perform the two kinds of
acts I have mentioned above, the
power of the Law of Origin is exerted,
and through the power of the law,
you will be able to move and work
all phenomena for achievement of
your goals.
As a result, you will receive ‘Support’
from all phenomena, and your task or
purpose will be accomplished perfectly.
(About the three relationship
between the “Causes action,
Results action, and Profit”)
Both the “Act① and Act②’s Mercy and
Wisdom actions” mentioned above have
the process of “Causes action and
Results action.”
First of all, the Causes action always
creates a “Situation for performing the
Results action.”
Conversely speaking, if the Causes
action is not done, there will be no
situation in which the Results action
can be taken.
“Results do not produce Results by
itself. Results are always produced
by Causes.”
Next, Concrete fruits and Benefits
such as “Profit and Merit” are always
brought by the “Causes action and
Results action” that were well done
by you.
Consequently, the order of actions is
Causes action → Results action →
Profit / Merit.
Please confirm this “Profit / Merit” by
the “Achievements of your work” and
the “Occurrence of triumphs of good
in social events.”
What is
3. The Real Nation Myō?
Next, when you do the Real Causes
Myō and the Real Results Myō in
the manner described above,
the Buddha’s Nation is formed.
That is 3. The Real Nation Myō.
The Formation of
the Buddha Nation and Its meaning
The Real Nation Myō literally means
“The Buddha Nation”.
The Buddha Nation is of course
a peaceful and prosperous nation.
Your acts of Mercy and Wisdom make
the power of the Law of Origin to be
exerted, and because that power
actually works in your country,
a peaceful and prosperous nation,
‘The Buddha Nation’ will be formed.
Also, “Nation” of the Buddha Nation
and the Real Nation Myō does not
necessarily mean “Nation”. It also
means the Environment World in
General.
In other words, if you practice the
Mercy and Wisdom action based on
the Law of Origin, a rich environmental
world begins to be created around you.
It is a “Climate Stable Environmental
World” without natural disasters and
climate change.
In addition, corporates and citizens of
each country will also start to make
earnest efforts to create such an
environmental world.
These are also the “Characteristics
of the Buddha Nation“.
Characteristics of the
Buddha Nation
The following will be able to say
about the characteristics of the
Buddha Nation.
If your country were to become
“The Buddha Nation,” your country
would look pretty much the same.
Your country has many religions and
philosophies, many kinds of economic
activities are carried out, and many
citizens live normally.
Also, your country’s traditional culture
exists and they are carefully
preserved.
However, if your country becomes
“The Buddha Nation,” the characteristic
of the Buddha Nation will come to
appear in some respects.
What is it like?
One is, because the Buddha Nation
is a peaceful and prosperous nation
as I said above, if your country
becomes the Buddha Nation,
a strong movement towards peace
and prosperity comes to occur
within your country.
The second is the fact that
if your country becomes the
Buddha Nation, it will become a
“Country that cannot be
destroyed by anyone.”
As a result, the various good
thoughts, religions, cultural assets,
and civic life that exist in your
country will be carefully preserved
and protected.
Also, even if some country attacks
your country with mighty military
power, they will be defeated after
a while, and leave for some reason.
You will clearly see that their army
will be emaciated and withdrawing.
Why it becomes so?
This is because the power of the
Law of Origin, which you have set
in motion, moves all phenomena
and strongly protects “your country”
and do so. Also, good forces, nations,
or powerful people will come from
outside and protect your country
and your citizens.
As a result, in the Buddha Nation,
all people will live in peace and
happiness.
4. What is
The Real Reaction Myō
Next, if the Buddha Nation is
formed, your wisdom will
illuminate the citizens of the
Buddha Nation.
“Illuminate” means that you
think or care about the current
state of happiness and
unhappiness of Citizens.
You think with wisdom,
“How can I lead people and
citizens to happiness?”
*
For instance, if someone cares
and worries about you, you sense
that person’s care.
In the same way, when your
wisdom illuminates people and
cares about them, people and
citizens will sense your careness
and begin to react to it.
The reaction is a reaction such as
empathy or interest.
They react with empathy and
interest to what you say.
That is “4. The Real Reaction
Myō.”
When people start reacting to
what you say, you answer it with
two actions: “Mercy Heart” and
“Thinking well”. Your act is the act
that contributes to the well-being
and victory of those who react,
which is a Contribution Behavior.
What is
5. The Real Phenomena Myō
When you perform these two kinds
of actions, the events (phenomena)
will begin to occur in the world.
Those events occur precisely according
to what people and citizens “think” and
“what they want”. Therefore, those events
have the power to correctly lead people
to happiness.
The occurrence of such events is
“5’s The Real Phenomena Myō.”
They may also, when necessary, correct
the “Mistakes and Excesses” of society’s
leaders.
The above is “5’s The Real Phenomena Myō.“
6. The Real Preachment Myō
When the events of “The Real
Phenomena” occur, you will preach the
law through that events.
Preaching the law through the events
is 6’s The Real Preachment Myō.
The laws you preach here are the Law
of Origin and the specialized law.
However, you will preach with the
Law of Origin (Myō-Hō) at the Center.
When you preach a specialized law,
you preach the required specialized law
as needed.
Since you preach the law through the
events that actually occur, you can
preach the law empirically and logically.
Both modern and future people will
practice the law based on “The Theory
of Law” that you explained, and will open
the way for their happiness.
What is
7’s The Real Succession Myō?
When you preach the law to people,
a deep relationship “Bond” will be
created between you and those people.
That is 7’s The Real Succession Myō.
About this 7’s “Succession“, I will
give a little basic explanation.
As I said earlier, “Human life is an
endless cycle of ‘Life and Death,’
going from the infinite past, through
the present, and moves toward the
distant future.”
In that process, if you were born in
a deep relationship with certain
people, such as parent and child,
siblings, or husband and wife,
it is likely that you had some quite
deep relationships factors with
them in your past lives.
In other words, even in your past life,
you are likely to had the relationship
of parents and child, siblings, or
spouses with those people.
Therefore, you were born as a relative
with them in your present life as well.
Also, if you are in a relationship of
parent-child or spouses in your present
life, there is a high possibility that deep
human relationships such as parent-child
or spouses relationship will be formed
with those people in the future life
as well.
*
Similarly, if you “talked about the law” or
“talked about the Law of Origin” with
certain people in your present life,
that will become a powerful factor in
forming extremely strong human
relationships in past, present and
future lives.
In other words, “Speaking about the law”
becomes the strongest of all the factors
that make a bond in human relationship.
For this reason,
after 6’s The Real Preachment Myō
of “Speaking the law,”
7’s The Real Succession Myō is placed.
8’s The Real Resuscitation Myō
means “Gaining New Life”
As described above, if you preach
the law to people in 6’s The Real
Preachment Myō,
a Deep Human Bond (Succession)
is created between you and the
people/citizens whom you preached
the law to.
That is 7’s The Real Succession Myō.
When this Deep Human Bond is
established, you complete your work
and mission in your present life.
And your life ends once.
But as soon as it ends, you will be
revived and gain “New Life.”
That is 8’s The Real Resuscitation
Myō.
In this case, the original text
of “The Real Resuscitation Myō”
is “The Real Nehan Myō”
in Chinese characters.
Nehan (涅槃) means “Death.”
Also, Nehan has the meaning
of “Purity” or “Enlightenment.”
However, I translated Nehan into
English as Resuscitation and
made it “The Real Resuscitation
Myō.”
The reason is that
The Real Resuscitation Myō has the
following meaning.
In the usual general interpretation,
Death is often interpreted as
“The end of everything.”
However, for you, who perpetually
repeat “Life and Death” from
the past, present, and to future,
Death (Nehan) is never the end.
Rather, Death is a great opportunity
in order to wash away the old,
become a new clean life, and
to be reborn.
In this sense,
8’s The Real Resuscitation Myō
is a stage of resuscitation for you
to gain “New Life.”
Also, Resuscitation is not limited
to what happens after you die.
It can happen while you are alive.
For instance, while your body is alive,
your hair, nails, cells, etc. are partly
repeating Death and Life, and
as a result, the old is replaced by
the new every day.
They are also one of the resuscitations
of life.
Also, when you finish one task, your life
can and may be reborn.
For example, when you finish one
important task, you resuscitate and the
Borders of your life are expanded.
And you get a new expanded living space
and New Borders.
8’s The Real Resuscitation Myō is also
“Resuscitation” in this sense.
What is
9’s The Real Lifespan Myō?
Next, when you gain a “New Life”
and “Newly expanded living space,”
you acquire a “New Wisdom” by that.
With your newly acquired Wisdom,
you prolong your life span.
That is 9’s The Real Lifespan Myō.
In this case, Wisdom is called
“E-Myō” and it is your life span.
“E” in E-Myō means Wisdom
and “Myō” means life span.
With your newly acquired Wisdom,
you learn Good knowledge and
New Philosophies, deepen them,
use them, and you will prolong your
life span.
What is
10’s The Real Merit Myō?
In this way, you who have acquired
“New Life” and “New Wisdom
(Life Span),” will use them and
work with the Lion’s momentum to
establish further happiness and joy
for human society and citizens.
You do that under the Law of Origin
which manages the entire phenomena
world.
Also, being able to do that itself is
“The establishment of the Buddha’s
Vast Border.”
It is also Merit, Property, Reward,
and Grace.
That is 10’s The Real Merit Myō.
