<10 Arguments for the Defense of the Tenno System(天皇制擁護の１０の理由）> by Michihiro Matsumoto
■Rationale:the system works better than any other hypothetical systems for Japan
■Definition:the Tenno System, hereinafter called "the system", means the Japan's single reigning imperial line ever since its shadowy protohistoric beginnings, uninterrupted by the postwar constitution of 1947 that defines the Emperor as the symbol of the state and of the unity of the people, deriving his position from the will of the people with whom resides sovereign power.
■Ｍａｊｏｒ ａｒｇｕｍｅｎｔｓ：
1. Logical reason: no other system works better for Japan. The system is the logical choice.
2. Political reason: Other political systems are probably costlier. The system, given its moral nature, finds it easier to constitutionally guarantee the freedom of speech we now enjoy.
3. Diplomatic reason: No other organs in Japan's body politic can better serve diplomatic functions than the imperial force. Representatives from 164 countries attended the state funeral for Showa Tenno for funeral diplomacy.
4. Historical reason: The unbroken imperial line has worked in Japan in terms of historical continuity and strengthened cultural identity.
5. Psychological reason: It works best in Japan because the "vacuum" center of our traditional culture serves as an emotional pull or Japanese "void" principle that makes parts work harmoniously inward.
6. Religious reason: The Tenno(chrysanthemum)serves religious rites. Ancestor worship and tradition are almost a religion for Japanese.
7. Structural reason: Symmetrical logic demands that there be a balance between "sacred" and "secular" bodies(i.g. church vs state)in Japan and
a responsible center watching over its peripherals.
8. Biological reason: Immunologically speaking, the heavily guarded system provides a unique immune system peculiar to Japan the way red blood cells (Imperial Family)work, protected by white blood cells(the government and military)that fight to protect the antibod(Kokutai)."Kokutai"(national polity)is a nucleus containing the nation's DNA and genetic information on the methods of avoiding intra-specific aggression.
9. Moral and ethical reason: The Tenno is traditionally the only unbiased parental figure who grows up on moral and ethical educations within the
maternal Imperial Family, so he is traditionally capable, if constitutionally allowed, of exercising moral and ethical influences upon the rest of the nation.
10. Economic reason: the system representing traditional rice culture, is the most ecological and the least capitalistic and for that matter the least
exploitatve form of economic activities.

From the March 2016 issue of The Christian Science Journal
Beloved Church family,
We so look forward to uniting with you for Annual Meeting on June 6—online wherever you are, or here in Boston. We love this sacred and joyful occasion to share with and hear from members around the globe how the scientific knowledge of God is tangibly blessing humanity. It’s a time to inspire and strengthen each other in fulfilling Mary Baker Eddy’s vision for her Church as “designed to be built on the Rock, Christ; even the understanding and demonstration of divine Truth, Life, and Love, healing and saving the world from sin and death; thus to reflect in some degree the Church Universal and Triumphant” (Church Manual, p. 19).
Healing and saving the world! That’s quite an expectation. We rejoice in global examples of progress in justice and peace—heartening evidence of a growing understanding of one universal God that is Truth and Love. Yet much remains to be done to demonstrate the reality of God’s allness that heals and saves individuals, nations, and the whole earth.
As we seek to fulfill the unique and essential role of church to meet this pressing need, these questions may stir thought:
• What does the world around me think about church?
• What did Mary Baker Eddy expect church to be and do?
• What do I expect church to be and do?
In spite of any limited and limiting views of church and its contemporary relevance, there is a universal hunger for the heartfelt experience of God’s saving power. And these questions press us to respond to the demand for church that is vibrant with unselfed love and actively engaged in authentic Christian healing for humanity. The still radical, still new understanding of God and man found in Christian Science is life-changing. It birthed the Church of Christ, Scientist, and continues to grow it as we each realize our own vital part in forwarding its healing mission.
At Annual Meeting, church members will tell how they’re deepening and expanding their healing practice—through daily study of the Bible, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy, and the weekly Christian Science Bible Lessons, and by the compassion, hope, and work for the world that The Christian Science Monitor and our other periodicals inspire.
As we feel more of the stability, confidence, and inclusive love “the structure of Truth and Love” (Science and Health, p. 583) brings to our lives, people the world over searching for a better home will recognize, desire, and find the precious knowledge of the all-loving God that Church offers everyone.
What a joy it will be to welcome as many of you as possible to Annual Meeting 2016.
With great love and gratitude for each one who has named the name of Christ,
Elise Moore, Speaker. This healing talk is part of a lecture event in Orange County, CA about about "Healing Through Prayer."
It's about handling fear and utilizing the law of God to heal disease. Elise will discuss 7 laws of God that result in healing,
including 5 specific ways to remove fear. Healings include rheumatoid arthritis, lump in breast, cancer, effects of a serious
auto accident, anorexia, heart condition, and more. This is a comforting, gentle, compassionate, practical talk to allay the fear
of patients and heal. The speaker is a practitioner and teacher of Christian Science healing. You will find more talks about healing
prayer and information about Christian Science Churches in Southern California at PrayerThatHeals.org.

Description:
Practicing yoga in all of its forms—hatha yoga, meditation, contemplation, or selfless service—turns up the inner light of awareness. We start to see a new way to live. Rolf Gates, author of Meditations From the Mat: Daily Reflections on the Path of Yoga, joins Yogacharya Ellen Grace O’Brian to discuss how the yamas and niyamas can help us to bring our spiritual practice off the mat and into every aspect of our lives. Tune in to discover how the practice of yoga encourages living a joyful, fulfilling life that leaves the world a better place.
Christie’s motivation in her healing ministry and lecturing is the “aha moment” that comes as we catch even a glimpse of God’s great power. “I love the undeniable feeling of security, health, and peace that comes when I listen for guidance from God,” Christie explains, “and my greatest joy is sharing this with others.”
