LIFE IS ART

By Rev. Tokuchika Miki

(Second Oshieoyasama)

People tend to say, "I am the best judge of myself, I know what is right and wrong for me better than anyone else." But is that true? The fact is, no matter how hard and sincerely you try, you have many faults, shortcomings and wrong-doings which you cannot even detect, much less overcome. Then, what should you do?

Think of the would-be golfer or artist or musician. What does he/she do when he/she wishes to develop his/her potentialities? Naturally he/she seeks the advice and assistance of a coach or teacher.

Well, then, just so you too must be mature and frank enough to listen to great teachers of religion if you are truly interested in a better life for yourself and your loved ones. Material wealth does not assure you happiness any more than an expensive set of golf clubs is a guarantee to play a good game.

Likewise, knowledge alone is insufficient to find the answers to the inquiries of human beings.

The PL religion teaches you the correct mental attitude in accordance with the Divine Universal Scheme. In other words, we guide each individual personally, according to his environment and character so that he/she can live a full, happy and unique life and be in perfect harmony with the rules of the universe. Life is Art.
