Gekiga Oyasama monogatari<\/em> is a manga rendition of The Life of Oyasama<\/em>, which is a primary source for understanding Oyasama\u2019s fifty-year Divine Model, which the followers of Tenrikyo are striving to emulate in their daily lives. It is the translators\u2019 hope that this English translation will \u201chelp bridge a cultural gap between Oyasama\u2019s historical background and ours by providing a pictorial narrative of Her life in the English language and, thus, assist many people unfamiliar with the Japanese language and culture to come closer to grasping the parental love infused in Oyasama\u2019s Divine Model\u201d (Translator\u2019s Note<\/em>).<\/p>\n

Originally, the translation project was started by a group of several members of the America and Canada Diocese and has benefited from contributions from members of the Hawaii Diocese. The initial version of what is offered in this volume was serialized in the monthly newsletter of the Mission Headquarters in America, beginning in March 2010, and was subsequently revised at a translation conference held in October 2015.<\/p>\n

Plans for the second and third volumes are in preparation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
