Born in Tokyo, Japan, on November 22, 1916, Masahisa Goi was a poet, philosopher, writer, and singer. Though he aimed at a career in music, he found himself spontaneously drawn to the realms of philosophy and spiritual guidance. At the age of 33 he attained oneness with his divine self. From that time on, he endeavored to reach out to people by holding informal talks, where anyone was invited to participate and ask questions. He enjoyed this direct contact with people, and provided many with spiritual guidance toward the attainment of inner peace.
Mr. Goi authored more than 60 books and volumes of poetry, including God and Man (his first and most fundamental work), One Who Unites Heaven and Earth (an autobiography of his early life), The Spirit of Lao Tsu, Essays on the Bible, How to Develop Your Spirituality, and Catch the Light, to name a few. Translations of many of his works are in progress.
Based on the universal prayer May Peace Prevail on Earth which he advocated, Masahisa Goi founded a worldwide movement of world peace through prayer, transcending religious, ethnic, and political boundaries. Before departing from this world in 1980, he named Mrs. Masami Saionji, his adopted daughter, as his successor and leader of the world peace prayer movement that he initiated.
"Think about the sea. The waves on the sea are not the sea itself. If we looked only at the waves, thinking that they are all there is to the sea, it wouldn't be right, would it? Our thoughts are the waves, and our life is the sea. As soon as possible, we human beings need to overturn the fallacy that life is confined to the physical body, and that 'thoughts' are the same as mind. Until we rise above this huge misunderstanding, we will be unable to transform this human world into a world of truth and harmony."
Even if we have found contentment in our own individual life, we cannot truly be happy when we see that many people in the world are suffering. Masahisa Goi holds that the only way we human beings can rise above our troubles and bring peace to the world is through the development of our spirituality. He proposes a simple method, based on the prayer May Peace Prevail on Earth—a method that is easy to practice yet holds a high and pure vibration, and can be adopted by people of all cultures, religions, and walks of life.
