Mission/Purpose:

Share thoughts, experiences, dialogues, principles, insights and various information sources related to work/management, science, religion/spirituality and our life’s passage for the benefit of all.

 

Topic Overview:

Management:

-         Thoughts and principles on elimination of waste and unleashing the potentials of individuals while meeting the strategy of the organization.

-         Summary of information related to mini-company idea, lean manufacturing, their books, videos, etc.

-         Connection to spirituality, e.g., articles by Daisetz Suzuki

-         It should be noted that the idea of mini-company (and glass wall management) is also represented in nature, and our spiritual practices as found in meditation.  For example, unleashing the individual’s potentials has a connection to each cells of our brain and body to be fully activated and expressing the potential.  

-         In the book, Results from the Heart, this point was briefly touched.  Yet, that is what I see critical for us to manage our work and life and that that is the reason other topics posted below may of benefit for those interested to pursue such dimension.

-         After all, management and our brain should address the life/liveliness of organization and people.  Why not?

 

Life’s Journey:

-         Having worked across the globe for many years as management consultant, I devoted myself to the inner journey of Zen and meditation especially since 1999.  Most files are like footprints of my journey indicating where I have been, and the sceneries I found so to speak.

-         As promoted in management principle, the heartbeat of PDCA(plan-Do-Check-Act) is practiced for me to learn as I move forward to live my life.  The whole site reflects this. 

-         Similarly, openness of my personal journey shared to the public is tied to the idea of Glass Wall Management so that those with interest may gain benefit.  There is a tie-in to Kegon philosophy of interpenetration.

-         At the same time, sharing my personal experience in this form helps me to be truthful in living my life, providing an opportunity to check and balance what I find meaningful vs. how I live.

 

Life’s Journey (Clubs, Articles, Websites, etc.)

-         The section of clubs (*) include the sites that I visit and leave messages on occasion.

-         Also posted are reference sites and various articles on the topic of spirituality that I felt noteworthy.

-         Although there are many subjects on spirituality/Zen, etc., I believe that if we are to pursue the truth, all roads should merge into one.  Languages, way of expression, and our background may be different, yet, if we have an eye of wisdom, we should see through the hurdles.

-         Ultimate and never-ending goal of life may be tied to bring out the wisdom and compassion by utilizing what we have for the benefit of all (although individual’s skill set and environment and approaches to practice may vary).

 

Dialogues I had on the Journey:

-         There are people I met on the net and elsewhere, who helped to clarify the path for me and/or to exchange ideas.  The ideas shared from the message board are posted here.

-         I appreciate the patience and willingness of those who could share ideas in various topics.

 

Neuro Science/Psychology/Qi/Quantum Physics:

-         It may appear that there is a gap between science and religion/spirituality.  Yet, there are various researches made related to this point.  Here are few files I gathered.

-         Especially interested for me was the mechanism of inspiration/creativity that I shared with late Mr. Nakayama over 15 years’ acquaintance with him.  (See for example, Human Brain Computer) 

 

Moment of Reflection: Essays, Poems, Pictures, Paintings, etc.:

-         Here are some expressions of our intuition and creativity, including few of my friends.’

-         Poems, essays, pictures, paintings, etc. are shared here.

-         A few files of my son are posted as well, hoping to record his creativity in action.

 

****Update in My Life****:

-         This is a column to share the brief reflection of my life every three to five months.

-         This may be compared to an annual report of a mini-company in a loose form, applied to an individual’s life in general.
