Wednesday, January 1st, 5:10 AM [Prayer to the Four Quarters]
Dear Attendees of the Zoom Prayer Meeting
We will hold a New Year's prayer meeting at Wednesday, January 1st, at 5:10 a.m. Japan time.
In the early morning of New Year's Day at 5:30 a.m., His Majesty the Emperor will pray to the gods of heaven, Earth, and the four directions in the temporary quarters in the south garden of the Shinkaden Hall in the Imperial Palace for the destruction of disasters and fertility in the coming year (2025) in Japan and the world.
We hope that by taking the time to perform this prayer, we will pave a clear path toward the peace of Japan and the perfect peace of the world and help revive human Divinity.
Prayer to the Four Quarters" at the Imperial Palace begins at 5:30.
Our prayer meeting will be longer than the Palace ceremony so that we will start a little earlier.
