Hiroji Sekiguchi - Erick Gonzalez / Wisdom Keepers

[Epiphany]

We are excited to welcome Hiroji to the full members circle!

Join Hiroji and the EPU family as we learn howthe Ancient Japanese lived with Nature, and how Buddhism and Shinto, the indigenous spirituality of Japan, influenced their way of life. Hiroji will also discuss the similarities of these ancient Japanese ways and Native American traditions.

About Hiroji ~

Hiroji has been in search of the Truth about the Life and Destination of Humanity since childhood. All the religions he visited could not heel his thirst for the Truth. Decades of his lonely spiritual journey led him to the Ancient Shinto of Japan. The Natures, such as birds, clouds, wind, water, rain, thunder and others respond to his prayer. Through his Shinto ceremonies, he could open his spiritual eyes to see the whole steps from the Creation of the Universe down to the Appearance of Humanity on earth, and the Destiny of Humanity.

Hiroji moved to Ojai, California with his wife Keiko and has been serving ceremonies for the Full Moon and the Equinox with Julie Tumamait, a Chumash Elder, since 2005.

His spiritual capability also includes the power to heal the sick, raise dying persons from the death, freeing a person from his or her long-held karma. His major work in this lifetime is to rebirth all living life into a higher level of energy or vibration.

This is from the December Earth Peoples United newsletter.

I'm concerned about that "power to heal the sick, raise dying persons from the death" part.

Erick Gonzalez's list of Wisdom Keepers continues to grow, I wonder how many on the list know that Erick is a fraud.

Tried to edit the second half of that several times but it just crashes.
swap it for:

Julie Tumamait is doing something in this PDF

Ojai lists as one of their "elders" a white woman who was one of H Storm's followers. Frauds Storm and Arguelles are both listed as former faculty.

Here's HS on the Ojai site.

I'm far from being an expert on Shintoism, but my understanding was that it's strictly Japanese except for some offshoots influenced by Christian evangelism. Their ceremonies are meant to tie believers to the land of Japan, and I don't think they sell ceremony, though they do sell amulets.
