Initiator of the Tenrikyo (Religion of the Parenting Originator) movement. Whilst seriously ill, she had a series of visions in which she sensed a divine presence calling for the abandonment of material wealth in the interests of the wider good of humankind otherwise continually threatened by individual and collective greed. Purification of heart and mind from this poison would bring in a new age for everyone’s benefit.
