"In this book, I write about my own spiritual journey, just the way it unfolded. And in relating these events, I find that I naturally tend to write from the standpoint of one who cannot help but place greater emphasis on the spiritual than on the physical side of life. Indeed, it would not have been possible for me to live in any other way… I would not encourage others to take the road that I have travelled, for each person has his or her own individual path in life. My wish is for each person to live with dignity in the way that suits them best, and to progress along their own path without losing their way, always praying to the inner divine self. The title of this book, 'One Who Unites Heaven and Earth,' came about through my spiritual experience of uniting my divine (heavenly) self with my physical (earthly) consciousness. It is my hope that, in reading this book, even a few more people may recognize that, by nature, all human beings are able to do the same."– Masahisa Goi
