Aum Shinrikyo, now known as Aleph, is a Japanese new religious movement organization. The group was founded by Shoko Asahara in 1984. The group gained international notoriety in 1995, when it carried out the sarin gas attack in the Tokyo subways.The name "Aum Shinrikyo derives from the Sanskrit syllable Aum (which represents the universe), followed byShinrikyo written in kanji, roughly meaning "religion of Truth". In English, it is usually translated as "Supreme Truth." In January 2000, the organization changed its name to Aleph in reference to the first letter of the Hebrew and Arabic alphabets. It changed its logo as well.In 1995, the group had 9,000 members in Japan, and as many as 40,000 worldwide. As of 2005, Aum Shinrikyo/Aleph membership was estimated at 1,650 people by the government. In Proverbs 6 these verses that are stands out to me . Verse 16-23 There are six things the Lord hates—no, seven things he detests: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that kill the innocent, a heart that plots evil, feet that race to do wrong, a false witness who pours out lies, a person who sows discord in a family. My son, obey your father’s commands, and don’t neglect your mother’s instruction. Keep their words always in your heart. Tie them around your neck.When you walk, their counsel will lead you. When you sleep, they will protect you. When you wake up, they will advise you. For their command is a lamp and their instruction a light; their corrective discipline is the way to life. Work is awesome just like yesterday time went fast, me and my co worker were talking about who is going to play in the Dragon Ball the movie as I was thinking of that... I think of the God's character , do I ready know what God did in the past and do I know what I want me to do in this world.. I know that will that time and I know God will speaks to me about it... I am going to pray about it and I will see where God wants to lead me.
