27. The August-Luck-Spirit-the-August-Wondrous-Spirit

1Thereupon the Deity Master-of-the-Great-Land lamented himself, and said: “How shall I alone be able to make this land? Together with what Deity can I make this land?” At this time there came a Deity illuminating the sea. This Deity said: “If thou wilt lay me to rest well, I can make it together with thee. If not, the land cannot be made.” Then the Deity Master-of-the-Great-Land said: “If that be so, what is the manner of reverently laying thee to rest?” He replied, saying: “Reverently worship me on Yamato’s green fence, the eastern mountain’s top.” This is the Deity who dwells on the top of Mount Mimoro.

WEBREATH · 11:11

«From the true-mist of her breath Gods were born» — Nihongi 1:7

Breath is one for all: everyone lives by it, whoever they are and whatever they believe. Every day at 11:11 local time people stop for sixty seconds, breathe, and thank GOD for the breath — each in their own words, each within themselves. In that minute we are One Breath.

WEBREATH — the Minute at 11:11, your own local time — we are One Breath
