第３章 実在界・霊界・幽界・肉体界②
第二図
第二図の如く、各分霊は霊界に所属しながら、その心（念）をもって各幽体を創造しここに幽界ができた。この幽体は各々の念が記録される場所となる。即ち業因縁の蓄積所である。ここに蓄積された記録や記憶が肉体の頭脳にキャッチされ、考えとなり行動となってゆく。この蓄積された記憶を潜在意識といい、頭脳にキャッチされたものを顕在意識という。怒ろうとせぬのに怒ってしまい、不幸になろうとせぬのに、不幸になってしまう等々、すべて潜在意識（幽体、幽界）からの意識の流れによるのである。この波が常に転回し、不幸の念の蓄積は不幸を呼び、喜びの念の蓄積は喜びを呼ぶという風に、輪のように転回してゆくので、これが業の因縁、因果と呼ばれている。このことは後の章において述べることにして、また分霊の説明にうつる。
分霊が最初に幽体、肉体を創造したのは、神が天地、山、海、草木を創造し、動物の創造を司る神霊が動物を創造した、その創造過程が、霊、幽、物質としだいにその光波を物質化した。いいかえると、エーテル、微粒子、原子（電子、電磁波）としていったと同じ原理で、直霊が各分霊に自己の光を分け与えて、肉体人間の創造を山霊、海霊、木霊、動物を司る霊等と協力して、なさしめたといえるのである。従って人間（霊）が光波ででき、肉体が原子からできていることと、自然界の法則とは範疇の異なった、等しい原理によるといえよう。ただ大いに異なることは、山海草木も動物も創造されたるものであって、自己意識、我（知性）を持たぬが、人間は、創造者である分霊そのものが、肉体にあって、たゆまざる自己創造をつづけていることである。これは重大なることであって、釈尊かの言葉に”人身得難し”とあるのは真である。動物は神に隷属されたる物、人間は神そのものの分霊であること、本来自由自在なる者であることを、よくよく考えて感謝しなければならない。
さて霊・魂・魄として三界に活動している分霊はしだいに肉体人そのものになってきて、肉体外の六官（直感）直覚（神智）の衰えを見せ、すべてを五官の感覚にのみ頼ることが習慣づけられ、五官に触れぬものは無いものと思うようになり、人間とは肉体であり、心（精神）とは、肉体の機関が生み出した働きであるとして、分霊の活動は分霊そのものとしては感じられぬようになっていった。しかし、分霊と分霊とが本来は神において一つの者であったことが幽体に記録され、記憶されているのが意識を超えて思われ、肉体においては、はっきり個々に分れていながらも、お互いが、お互いのことを思いあう感情、愛は消えることはなかった。この愛の狭い範囲の働きは、親子、夫婦、兄弟の間に、ひろくは、人類、社会の範囲に及ぼされている。愛こそ神へつながる道であり、光であり、本来の自己を見出すただ一つの感情、行為であった。
分霊は物質の世界、形の世界において、己れ自身の本来身、光（神）を忘れかけながらも、心の底から湧きあがってくる、人間本来一つの光の理念が、愛の思いとなり行為となって、わずかにその光を保っているのであった。
神の心を愛と呼び、業因の働きを執着、と呼び、この二つの心が、人間の生活を、幸と不幸とに分けていこうとしているのである。

Chapter 3: Real World, Spiritual World, Subconscious and Physical Worlds Part 2
Figure 2
As shown in Figure 2, each individual spirit, while belonging to the spiritual world, created each subconscious body by using his or her mind (thoughts), and thus the subconscious world was made. This subconscious body became a place where each thought is recorded. In other words, it is the place where karma is accumulated. Memories, or records that have accumulated in the subconscious body, are caught in the brain of the physical body. They then become thoughts, which in turn become actions. This accumulated memory is called ‘the subconscious,’ and that which is caught in the brain is called ‘consciousness.’
You may have had experiences of becoming angry even if you did not wish to, or of becoming unhappy even if you did not wish to. These feelings are caused by the stream of consciousness, coming from the subconscious body and subconscious world. This stream, or wave, always revolves, and the accumulated thoughts of misfortune attract misfortune, just as the accumulated thoughts of joy attract joy. Thus, it revolves like a wheel. This is called karmic cause and effect. I will explain this further in a later chapter. Now, I will go into a further discussion on individual spirits.
The initial creation of the subconscious and physical embodiments by the individual spirits is based on the same principle and is the same process of creation as God’s creation of heaven and earth, mountains, oceans, trees and plants. The same principle and process also apply to the creation of animals by the Divinity in charge of creating animals. In other words, light waves were gradually materialized, from spirit to ethereal substance and then to matter, or from ether to elementary particles to atoms (electrons and electromagnetic waves).
One way to explain it is that the Direct Spirit gave its own light to each individual spirit and let each individual spirit create the physical human being in cooperation with the Mountain Divinity, the Ocean Divinity, the Tree Divinity, the Divinity in charge of animals and so forth. Therefore, the fact that a human being (in its divine, spiritual, and subconscious embodiments) is composed of light waves, and the fact that a physical body is composed of atoms, are based on the same principle as the laws of the world of nature, although the human creation is in a different category. What constitutes a big difference is that mountains, oceans, trees, plants and animals are created existences. They do not have consciousness of Self (intellectual wisdom). Within a human physical body, however, there exists the individual spirit, who is a creator and who unceasingly continues to self-create. This is very important, and the words of Shakuson, who said that a human being is a rare and miraculous treasure indeed, are true. Each of us ought to give serious thought to this truth—that animals are subordinate to God, while human beings are spirits divided out from God and are, from their origin, free and unrestricted beings—and we ought to feel a deep sense of gratitude for our existence as human beings.
The individual spirits pursued their activities in three worlds—spiritual, subconscious, and physical—manifesting themselves through spiritual substance in the spiritual world, ethereal substance in the subconscious world, and physical substance in the physical world. As time went on, the individual spirits gradually attuned themselves wholly to the physical vibration, and came to behave as if they were merely physical beings. From this time onward, the sixth sense (intuition, deriving from outside the physical self) gradually declined, as did the higher intuition, or divine wisdom. The individual spirits became accustomed to fully relying only on the five senses. They began to think that what they could not perceive through their five senses did not exist. They began to think of themselves merely as physical bodies, and considered all the facets of their mentality and spirituality simply as functions of their physical organs. They ceased to perceive those activities as coming from their spiritual being.
However, it was recorded and remembered in the subconscious body that the individual spirit was originally one with other individual spirits in God, and the spirit sensed this beyond the conscious state. Accordingly, the feeling of affection toward others, or love, has not disappeared, even though spirits are clearly separate from one another in terms of their physical embodiments. In the narrow sense, this love prevails among parents and children, wives and husbands, brothers and sisters. In the wider sense, it prevails in society and humankind. Love alone is the road to God and light, and love is the only feeling and the only action through which human beings can find their original Selves.
In the material world, the world of forms and shapes, the individual spirits have tended to forget their own original embodiments of light (God). However, the idea that human beings are originally one and the same light wells up from the bottom of each human heart. This has been generating thoughts and actions of love in human beings, and has allowed the light to flow, however faintly.
The mind of God is called love, and the activity of karma is called ‘attachment.’ These two are what divide a human being’s life into happiness or unhappiness.
