"Spirit In The Sky"


When I die and they lay me to rest

Gonna go to the place that's the best

When I lay me down to die

Goin' up to the spirit in the sky

Goin' up to the spirit in the sky

That's where I'm gonna go when I die

When I die and they lay me to rest

I'm gonna go to the place that's the best.



Prepare yourself you know it's a must

Gotta have a friend in Jesus

So you know that when you die

He's gonna recommend you

To the spirit in the sky

Goin' up to the spirit in the sky

That's where I'm gonna go when I die

When I die and they lay me to rest

I'm gonna go to the place that's the best.



Never been a sinner I never sinned

I got a friend in Jesus

So you know that when I die

He's gonna set me up with

The spirit in the sky

Oh set me up with the spirit in the sky

That's where I'm gonna go when I die

When I die and they lay me to rest

I'm gonna go to the place that's the best

Oh

Set me up to the Spirit in the Sky

That's where I'm gonna go when I die

When I die and they lay me to rest

I'm gonna go to the place that's the best

Goin' on up to the Spirit in the Sky

That's where I'm gonna go when I die

When I die and they lay me to rest

I'm gonna go to the place that's the best

Go to the place that's the best

Go to the place that's the best

Go to the place that's the best.

Here some photos of Manji I saw in Japan last week:

What are the meaning of the manji and how is it used.

In the East, manji () are often used to represent Buddhist temples on maps (se picture below), and it is commonly understood as a symbol for Buddhism. The symbol itself, however, is older than Buddhism, and it possesses profound meaning.



The manji represents the fluidity of the universe and the foundation of life. The opposites which organize our thoughts - heaven and earth, day and night, positive and negative, male and female, south and north, summer and winter, fire and water, and many others - stand in apparent opposition. Yet each maintains its own distinct nature while finding harmonious relations with its opposite. The shape of the manji reflects this. The perpendicular line symbolically connects heaven and earth, while the horizontal line unites lightness and darkness. The two combined to form a cross represent the universe in harmony beyond the limits of time and space, and from which comes the power that creates and nurtures all things. The trailing lines of the cross represent the wisdom that the universe and all things in it change constantly, never reaching a stage of permanence.



Manji becomes a circle.

After extensive practice, one may awaken to the fact that one is a vital part of the flow and change of the universe, and discover deep value and significance in living. This provides one with an immovably peaceful state of mind known in Zen as satori. It comes through union with the foundation of the universe. When a person reaches satori, or enlightenment, the interrelations which manji represents can be seen as complete, and the manji becomes a circle.
What are the differences between omote manji and ura manji?



Kakejiku (hanging scroll) made by Kaiso So Doshin with a manji and followed below by dharma.

The omote (front side) manji () represents infinite mercy, or the love in Dharma which permeates the universe and nurtures all things. The ura (back side) manji () represents intellect and strength. The Chinese are said to have derived their symbol for strength () from the ura manji (). Although omote manji and ura manji are customarily used side by side in Buddhism, the manji worn on Shorinjikempo dogi (uniform), in Japan and many foreign countries, is set as the omote manji. In many dojo it is also common to have a kakejiku (hanging scroll) with a calligraphy made by Kaiso with a manji followed by dharma written in sanskrit (se picture to the left).

The spirit of caring for others as well as oneself is shown by the original teachings of Buddha. This path can be followed by using the intellect and strength symbolized by the ura manji to develop oneself into a person who can be relied on, and who can serve humankind as an expression of the mercy and love represented by the omote manji.
The manji symbolizes the spirit of riki ai funi.

The harmony of opposites symbolized in the manji includes the harmony of intellect with mercy, and strength with love. This harmony lies at the heart of Kongo Zen's principle of riki ai funi, a principle which also gives guidance to us in how we are meant to practice and to use the techniques of Shorinji Kempo. Understanding the truths represented by the manji are vital to understanding the heart of Kongo Zen.


From ancient Sanskrit.

The manji was originally a Sanskrit symbol meaning "whirlwind", "good fortune", "foundation of life", and "everchanging universe". After the death of Buddha, it was engraved on stone footprints marking places where he was supposed to have stood and on these footprints one often find manji.



Its use in the West.

The manji was also used in the West as a symbol of good fortune.
In its religious usage it referred to the four L's: Light, Life, Love, and Liberty.

Ayer estuve en Washington, DC,

la capital del mundo libre,

en el rally por los derechos de los inmigrantes

y tenia esta cancion en la cabeza todo el tiempo...

 

Pero si esto acaba
y todo tiene que acabar,
no tendris nadie en quien confiar.
Cerrad vuestras ventanas
rezar lo que haya que rezar,
pues cada da se acerca un poco ms.
Cuidad vuestros negocios y vuestras familias
porque vamos a mostrar vuestra misma piedad.
Porque seremos cientos
por cada una de los vuestros.
Porque seremos cientos.

Sacad vuestras pistolas
porque tendris que practicar.
Ni todas vuestras armas servirn.
Haceos un refugio,
turnaos para aniquilar.
No habr un lugar seguro donde estar.
Cuidad vuestros negocios y vuestras familias
porque vamos a mostrar vuestra misma piedad.
Porque seremos cientos
por cada una de los vuestros.
Porque seremos cientos
por cada uno de los vuestros,
de los vuestros,
de los nuestros,
de los vuestros,
por cada uno de los vuestros,
de los vuestros.
