On May 22, 2011 Happy Science’s Master Ryuho Okawa visited Hong Kong, holding a lecture before an audience of about 1,300 people. There was a question and answer session with the audience in the latter half of the program. The first person said that there was an increasing number of people who fear the Mayan prophecy that the world will end in 2012 and asked if something would happen. This prophecy has been a popular topic of conversation worldwide since about 2009, and a search for “Mayan calendar 2012” on the Internet will yield several million hits. In response to this question, Master Okawa emphatically replied that as long as Happy Science was active, there would not be a problem.

Three days after the lecture in Hong Kong, in a sacred spiritual ceremony at the Happy Science General Headquarters in Tokyo, Master Okawa recorded a ninety-minute spiritual message to find out what kind of spiritual meaning was behind the Mayan prophecy. What was secretly involved in this prophecy was a truly unexpected soul.

A spiritual message is where Master Okawa uses his advanced spiritual powers and summons those from the spirit world, who then enter his body using it as a conduit to speak freely. Master Okawa’s spiritual messages are published in books and sold in bookstores throughout Japan and are frequently advertised in the major newspapers, thus gaining social trust. These spiritual messages are gaining influence even in Japan’s political and industrial circles.

His spiritual messages resemble the phenomenon of psychic mediums that have long existed all over the world but the phenomenon of psychic mediums and the spiritual messages of Master Okawa differ in the following ways.

1. Psychic mediums usually lose their awareness and enter a trance and thus do not remember what the souls said using their own mouths. Master Okawa clearly retains his self-awareness throughout the spiritual messages, objectively understanding the souls’ words.
2. The souls of people who had great spiritual powers do not usually engage with psychic mediums whose spiritual capacity does not match theirs. However, as Master Okawa possesses an extremely great spiritual capacity, he can summon the souls of all people and have them speak.
3. If the soul called has a high level of cognition, it is possible for it to select and speak Japanese from Master Okawa’s speech center even if it is not the soul of a Japanese person.

Master Okawa called to the spirit world asking for souls to step forward if they were deeply involved with or sending inspiration to someone on Earth in relation to the coming of the end of humanity in 2012. When he did, the soul that appeared identified itself in Japanese as Montezuma, the 16th century Aztec Emperor, and revealed that it was currently living as the American President, Barack Obama. In other words, what was spoken using Master Okawa as a conduit in the following spiritual message came from Montezuma and even the subconscious of President Obama at the same time. What follows is an extract of the content of that spiritual message (the one posing the questions is a staff member at the Happy Science General Headquarters).
