You Are the Universe

Infinite happiness, infinite provision, and infinite flourishing-all these are included in your original being. Your true self can only live brightly and exuberantly. Your true self can only be happy, healthy, and alive with energy. You are originally filled with deep and abundant love, warmth and compassion. Your true self is by nature perfectly free, and knows no such word as 'impossible.' This is who you really are. Up until now, nearly all of your consciousness may have been oriented toward thoughts of pain, sorrow, inadequacy, and unhappiness. But you can completely reorient your thinking so that it is entirely attuned to the infinite divine light, love, and power of the great Universe. Step by step, the preconceived, restrictive notions buried deep in the recesses of your mind will be dispelled and purified. Step by step, you will be spontaneously enlivened and guided forward by the bright, positive energy surging forth from within you. The elements that constitute a bright lifestyle will naturally be drawn toward you, and they will take shape in your future. For many years, the words of Masami Saionji have served as a source of inspiration to people in all regions of the world. You Are the Universe is her most fundamental work, compiled from a series of essays that awaken us to the inherent divinity of human beings, and the infinite wisdom and love that lie deep within us.
