Also included are his answers to the questions—specifically, on the Hong Kong and Uyghur problems—from renowned activists who attended his lecture.The major themes of Okawa&’s Toronto lecture were the suppression of democratic movement in Hong Kong and the human rights suppression of Uyghurs, both of which are acts by totalitarian China and harshly criticized by countries around the world. These are subjects of human dignity, the central concept of religion. Additionally, Okawa talked on the themes of global warming and LGBT, to which none of the world religions today can provide answers. He indicated clear guidelines to deal with these problems from the standpoint of the spiritual truth and from God. In this context, &“God&” refers to the common source, the supreme being in religions such as Christianity, Islam, Judaism, and Buddhism.Okawa is the Master of Happy Science, a religion founded in 1986 and now joined by people in more than 100 countries across the world.

The Laws of Courage: Unleash Your True Potential to Open a Path for the Future
By Ryuho Okawa. 2015
As a prominent spiritual leader with a diverse background Okawa, originally a successful businessman before awakening to his true calling,…
provides hands-on guidance for the important lessons that life teaches all people, including friendship and attitude changes in close relationships, as well as broader themes about the global perspective of Right and Wrong, how to find providence in failures, and the ultimate truth about human existence. This practical yet eye-opening book shows how we can find and develop courage within our own being. In order to discover strength and confidence to open a future for ourselves as well as for the world, Okawa espouses both the spirit of self-help and the value of faith. He emphasizes the importance of making efforts and introduces the Law of Compensation, which says that the compensation of what you pay for is equivalent to the value of what you will gain. Okawa also reveals the secret of the Cosmic Tree in Chapter 5, Live a Life of Truth. Okawa says that human beings are spiritually all part of a single tree in the Universe and are like travelers visiting this Earth for a limited period of time to learn new lessons and obtain new knowledge through numerous reincarnations. He also introduces a unique perspective on soul mates: when you look at your previous lives, the people you are having complications or conflicts with in this life are actually people that have been in many different relationships with you throughout various reincarnations. ...In your life training, there are people who you are required to meet...The people you have close relationships with are all connected to the same branch of the Tree of Life. It is a sin to hate or loathe each other...because you would be loathing, damaging, and trying to cut off another branch that is connected to the same bough of life as you. In many cases, the person that you despise or hate has an extremely deep spiritual tie with you, and is someone you have met many, many times in your previous lives. He states that the realization of this truth is the key to solving hatred and conflicts that plague the world today. This latest book by Okawa was made available in English to celebrate the publishing of his 501st book.
In May 2017, the day after Moon Jae-in was elected as president of South Korea, Ryuho Okawa used his extraordinary…
spiritual power (similar to but surpassing Shakyamuni Buddha&’s) and summoned Moon&’s guardian spirit, namely his subconscious mind, to have him speak his opinion. In a subsequent spiritual investigation, it was found that Moon is the rebirth of Mussolini, who also led a peninsular nation of Italy with his Fascist party during WWII. This book is a record of spiritual interviews of above figures and is also precious material in predicting upcoming events in East Asia, as well as the actions that major countries such as the U.S. and Russia may take. In his spiritual interviews, Ryuho Okawa has been contacting the hidden consciousnesses of political leaders around the world. He has been uncovering their true thoughts before anyone else and foretelling how their politics will turn out. These interviews include North Korea&’s Kim Jong-un going wild, China&’s Xi Jinping and his hegemonism, America&’s decline brought on by Obama, and much more. Okawa has written over 450 books of spiritual messages in more than 30 years, in order to prove the existence of the Spirit World, reincarnation and guardian spirits. The number and content of these books are not fiction, but rather prove that spiritual messages are a real spiritual phenomenon. Quite a few Christians and materialists view spiritual messages as a heresy or doubt the credibility of the messages right from the start. It should be noted, however, that denying the newly revealed Truths, based on old religious knowledge and existing academic knowledge, is a mistake like what the churches did to Galileo—they denied heliocentric theory. Can your intellect honestly accept this spiritual Copernican Revolution in the modern age? Read Okawa&’s spiritual interview series and find out…

government claims the Japanese forces conducted during the Battle of Nanking in 1937. In June 2014, the Chinese government submitted an application to register the historical sources on this incident into UNESCO&’s Memory of the World. Will the application be accepted or rejected? We shall find out around this coming summer. However, whether this massacre actually happened or not has been questioned by many. The incident spread throughout the world back in 1997, when the Chinese-American Iris Chang published The Rape of Nanking. Ever since its release, researchers have pointed out many discrepancies in the content and photos contained in the book. Unfortunately, historians and journalists can no longer verify the truth of its contents because she died an unusual death in her car, back in 2004. Taking these into account, Master Ryuho Okawa of Happy Science proved that Iris Chang&’s book was a fraud by &“spiritual message&” which is a type of religious journalism. [See The Secret Behind The Rape of Nanking: A Spiritual Confession by Iris Chang (New York: IRH Press, 2014).] Here is another spiritual interview book, this time with the spirit of General Iwane Matsui, main figure and the one responsible for the Battle of Nanking. We verified with him what really happened in Nanking at the time. Readers who respect justice and fairness will surely, without exception, feel the truth in his testimony. We sincerely hope you determine, as a juror in the court of true history, which side justice lies on.

Love for the Future

On October 7, 2018, in Berlin, author Ryuho Okawa gave a bold and brave message to the people of Germany…
and the world in a lecture called, "Love for the Future,"which is now published in this book in your hand by the same title, with his responses to questions he received from the audience. In the thirty years that Happy Science has worked actively in Japan and around the world to foster ideas and ways of thinking which promote the creation of a better world, Germany and the countries of Europe have developed spiritually. Realizing this inspired Okawa to speak of the time that has now come for the German people to unshackle their hearts from feelings of atonement and remorse about the deeds committed by Hitler and the Nazis, and to embark on a new future with hope in their hearts. In these pages, you will discover the whereabouts of Hitler&’s soul in the other world.The decision to support the world&’s freedom, democracy, and belief in God is the choice that the people of the world must now decide to make. The diplomatic and economic policies taken by China, an emerging superpower, have instead been working in opposition to these ideas and suppressing the Chinese people, and the current Chinese regime is working to spread this system to its neighboring countries and even more widely on a global scale. Around the world, close diplomatic and economic ties between countries and this regime based on disbelief in God are being built. The spread of such a form of government around the world would thwart the happiness of humanity from making further growth, says Okawa.Liberating ourselves from the shackles of twentieth century totalitarian ideology, putting an end to acts of infringement against human rights by a totalitarian-communist regime, and preventing the emergence of a third world war is what the world needs to think about now. These are the messages to the German state and the world that is discussed in this book from a historical and political perspective, as well as from the perspective of what God wishes for the people of the twenty-first century to follow. Readers are sure to feel God&’s universal and current love for humankind through the words of the author in this book.

Confessions of a Second Story Man: Junior Kripplebauer and the K & A Gang
By Allen M. Hornblum. 2006
From the 1950s to the 1970s, from Bar Harbor to Boca Raton, the ragtag crew known as the K&A Gang…
robbed wealthy suburban neighborhoods with assembly line skills. It was hard to imagine a more unlikely crew of successful thieves, writes Allen Hornblum. [They were] two-fisted, beer-guzzling, ear- and nose-biting hoodlums from a blue collar section of Philadelphia called Kensington. The gang infuriated homeowners up and down the East Coast, while baffling police. Confessions of a Second Story Man follows the gang as they move in and out of homes, courtrooms, and prisons, and even go on the run. Hornblum describes the transformation of the K&A Gang from a group of blue collar thieves to their work in conjunction with numerous organized crime families and their role in making Philadelphia the meth capitol of the nation. It is a compelling read about a fascinating bunch of hoodlums.

of locusts, extreme weather, chaos and confusion around the world brought through the hegemonism and human rights suppression by totalitarian China, etc. Why are these occurring now?

By Ryuho Okawa. 2020
The New Resurrection is an autobiographical account of an astonishing miracle experienced by author Ryuho Okawa in 2004. This event…
was adapted into the feature-length film Immortal Hero, released in Japan, the United States and Canada during the Fall of 2019.Chapter 1 recounts the incredible story of Ryuho Okawa&’s resurrection from physical death. At the age of 47, Okawa suffered a severe episode of chest pain and was rushed to a local hospital. Upon intake, attending physicians remarked &“you should be dead ...&” as the medical examination revealed that Okawa&’s heart had stopped. Unbelievably, during the onset of cardiac arrest, he was fully conscious and responsive, witnessing the startling diagnosis unfold by a team of respected physicians at a prestigious Tokyo hospital. Chapter 2 is a transcription of a live Q&A session from the 2019 lecture &“The New Resurrection&” in Tokyo, Japan, where Okawa candidly recounts how his life has changed post miracle.
