JWH Author's Voice Vol. 14 interview with Yuji Sano
Y uji Sano, a management consultant, has been exploring the brain, the history of the earth, and ancient history since 20 odd years ago. Recently, the English version of his third book, Japan and Judaism, was released in the United States.Q: I believe there will be many readers surprised by the title of this book. Please tell me what led you to write it. It was around 20 years ago from today when I met Mr. Tenmei Okamoto, who wrote the book titled, Hitsukishinji. He was a follower of the Omoto faith, which was the most influential religion in prewar days. This book was hand written in the 1940s when Mr. Tenmei's hand began to move of its own will. It was automatic writing. But what was really striking for me was the fact that, content-wise, it perfectly matched my ideas and sensibilities. There were several places that seemed to be speaking directly to me, and in the course of carrying out a careful deciphering of the book and repeated verifications, I became convinced of the idea that the "Bible is the sequel to Japanese mythology." Q: Usually, you engage in work as a management consultant, but how do you manage your time for research and writing? Getting up every morning at 6 and sleeping at midnight gives me about 13 hours at my desk, after excluding time for meals and breaks. I finish my management consultant work within half of that time, and allot the remaining half for research and writing. I'm a consultant, but it's more like being self-employed, and since I rarely commute for work, my work hours have become flexible, and due to this, I'm grateful that I have plenty of time to devote to research and writing. Q: What messages found in your book would you like to emphasize the most? What I have clarified in this book is that the Old and New Testaments of the Bible form the sequel to Japanese mythology, the Jomon and Sumerian peoples were the proto-Japanese, the Celts were the ancestors of the souls of the Jewish people, and that they became one with the proto-Japanese and began the history of humankind. I am confident that all three of these ideas have the power to rewrite the history of humankind as we have come to know it, and as such, I would like people all over the world to become aware of them. Q:Have you been criticized for your theories? My theories are premised on the idea of the transmigration of the soul, so they are not clear to each and everyone, who expect to follow a typical cause and effect line of thinking. There are people criticizing this aspect. In addition, I also state in the book that the Jews and the proto-Japanese are related in three ways, and one such relationship is accounted by "the Japanese-Jewish homologous theory." People who oppose the Palestinian occupation by Israel in particular tend to dislike this theory. They are thwarted by the idea of being homologous with such a tyrannical group of people." In response to these criticisms, I say that a human exists because there is soul, and that my theory is not really "the Japanese-Jewish homologous theory, but the world homologous theory." If people know that the world is homologous, they should be able to build a future for humankind in the spirit of friendship and with more tolerance for each other. Q:Your field of research until now has been very wide ranging. It has covered the brain, blood types, extremely ancient history, and the universe. But ultimately what do you wish to clarify? When you study the structure of the universe, you will find that it has the shape of a 4-dipole magnetic field, which resembles the figure of a Dharma doll. Similarly, if you bring together the four major continents of the earth close to each other, you can see, as expected, that the resulting shape is that of a Dharma doll. The Dharma doll has the shape of a person seated, and can be divided into four parts: the head, the body, the left half of the body, and the right half of the body. The human brain can also be divided into four parts: the left brain, the right brain, the frontal lobe, and the occipital lobe. The heart has chambers, and they also amount to four. In other words, the universe, earth, humans, the human cerebrum, and heart are all analogous, and this attribute testifies to the fact that the earth and human beings are children of the original Ookami (God) who created the macrocosm. In the way a child resembles a parent, such things as humans and the earth are analogous simply because they are children of the macrocosm. To become aware of such a connection with the universe is, I believe, the mission assigned to modern people. In addition, there are laws and structures that run through the entire history of humankind and throughout the entire universe, and I believe it is my mission to convey these truths to the people of the world.
