A treasure box to a sustainable world that transcends time and space

In 2013, Ise Jingu and Izumo Oyashiro were rebuilt simultaneously. Masuura saw this as “a fateful event”, and was convinced that the future of the earth and humankind lies in the spiritual culture symbolized by Sengu, and published Kami no Miya. The ideas of “eternal youth” and “resurrection” are embodied in both Sengu. It is a gift that has been passed down from generation to generation to connect the past, present and future. Here, a treasure box is opened with a wish for true global happiness, where all living things nurture each other and share happiness.
