On January 27 and 28, Tenrikyo Women\u2019s Association held a seminar for the chairwomen of directly supervised chapters and diocese chapters at Moya 38 with an attendance of 255 people.<\/span><\/p>\n

It was announced that the association, which will commemorate its 110th anniversary in April this year, will continue to promote its slogan for spiritual maturity:<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s follow the Divine Model and become the foundation for the Joyous Life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also announced were new activity guidelines:<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s inquire into the origin and make daily repayment for the blessings we receive.<\/span><\/p>\n

(1) Let\u2019s study the Scriptures and The Life of Oyasama<\/em> to learn about the heart of the Parent.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a> (2) Let\u2019s nurture ourselves and others into true Yoboku.<\/span><\/p>\n

Aiming for a million members, let\u2019s work together to ensure that each member can be blessed with two new members.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the seminar, Association President Harue Nakayama addressed the participants. After referring to a passage from the Shinbashira\u2019s New Year\u2019s address, she spoke about the importance of settling the Truth of Origin in our heart. She stressed that it is crucial to convey the origin to the younger generation if we are to ensure that they inherit the faith that began with early followers who were directly taught by Oyasama. She then emphasized the importance of parents conveying the original intention of God the Parent to their children through their words and actions while maintaining a sense of mission as Yoboku. <\/span><\/p>\n

In referring to the new activity guidelines, President Nakayama said, \u201cMy hope is that we will familiarize ourselves with the Scriptures, take to heart the Parent\u2019s intention, and firmly settle it in our heart as our conviction of faith while endeavoring to share the Truth of Origin with the younger generation.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Toward the end of her address, President Nakayama expressed her hope in anticipation of this year\u2019s convention: \u201cI would like each and every one of us members to have a strong sense of mission to share the teachings of God the Parent with as many people as possible. I would like us to make constant and steady efforts to that end while always maintaining a proactive attitude to share the teachings with other people.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n
