Inochi: The Book of Life

Author Mikoto Masahilo Nakazono, O Sensei, presents the ancient life principle of Kototama Futomani, describing the essential sound vibrations that underlie all universal phenomena and what this means for modern human life.The author explains the 50 life rhythms, known as the Kototama sounds, which include the 5 mother (vowel) sounds combining with the 10 father sounds that underlie all physical manifestation.Beginning with Naka-Ima, or "here-now," O Sensei dicusses the Mother sounds as the 5 dimensions of human capacity, which he explains are the means to return to one's original substance. This practice opens one up to the development of the highest human capacity, not only for oneself, but for human civilization as a whole. The three orders of society are also delineated and explained by the author in detail. This is the author's most current explanation of the Kototama Principle, and the result of his lifetime of deep study. O Sensei Nakazono studied directly under Senseis Ueshiba (the founder of Aikido) and Ogasawara (a teacher of the Kototama Principle) for many years, later teaching the Kototama Principle in Europe, the United States, and Mexico.
