My translation of poems by Kurozumi Munetada (1780-1850), a holy man of Japan who taught the way of the Heaven-illuminating Goddess and healed many. The members of Shinto Order of Kurozumikyo still strive to live up to Munetada's teachings of positive way of life.

Suffering in the world full of blessings
How pitiful is a person who suffers even though he was born in such a world full of blessings! (Gobun No. 166) あら嬉しかかる嬉しき世にいでて 苦しむ人ぞあはれなりける （御文166号）
