We receive a portion of the red robe worn by the Foundress Oyasama as our amulet.
In this painting, the red robe amulet rises from Oyasama's chest area, gradually transforming into leaves and birds
and spreading across the vast sky. It depicts Oyasama's heartfelt wishes imbued within the amulet spreading throughout the world.
As symbols of Oyasama, the Moon and Sun are placed on either side of the red robe, representing the sanctuary of time. Since the protection of God the Parent continues day and night, both are depicted in the same scene.
At the bottom of the painting, people connected to one another are shown praising Oyasam.
Recently, I gave an amulet and sacred rice offerings to someone from overseas. This person lives with family issues and experiences stressful days, which are affecting his health. Where he lives, there are no churches, missionary stations, or fellow believers. Since he cannot speak Japanese at all, learning the seated service song would be difficult.
Therefore, I gave him the amulet and offering so they could live with peace of mind even after returning home. I also asked them to hold the amulet and chant “Tenri o no mikoto” whenever something stressful happens, and to receive the offering while thanking the protection of “Tenri o no mikoto(God the Parent)” if their health deteriorates.
Oyasama imbued the Sazuke with the protection of salvation and further prepared amulets and offerings. Oyasama's heartfelt desire to help others is woven into the crimson robe worn by the Divine Appearance. That crimson robe transforms into the form of an amulet, becoming a guardian for the hearts of people worldwide.
