31. Flight of Princes Ohoke and Woke

1Hereupon King Ichi-no-be’s children King Ohoke and King Woke (two Deities), having heard of this affray, fled away. So when they reached Karibawi in Yamashiro and were eating their august provisions, an old man with a tattooed face came and seized the provisions. Then the two Kings said: “We do not grudge the provisions. But who art thou?” He replied, saying: “I am a boar-herd in Yamashiro.” So they fled across the River Kusuba, reached the land of Harima, entered the house of a native of that country named Shizhimu, hid their persons, and worked as grooms and cow-herds.

«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
