Hitsuki Shinji

About this text. The Hitsuki Shinji is a Japanese sacred text received by Okamoto Tenmei (1897-1963) through automatic writing between 1944 and 1961. The original is known for admitting eight distinct readings (yatōri no yomikata, 八通りの読み方) from a single passage — numerology, phonetics, cryptic symbols, and layered doctrinal meanings all coexist.
