Talk:Mahikari
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
What do people think about adding information about each of the Mahikari groups under separate headings. I see a heading called Sukyo Mahikari already started. It would be quite informative to have expanded information on each of the groups Skeptomai 07:31, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
I suggest this article not be merged with Sukyo Mahikari. Sukyo Mahikari is one of breakaway groups from the original Okada sect.

It is good to see this article has been expanded to include information that can be verified from independant research. Lets keep up the good work. The subject of Japanese New Religions is a very interesting area and only the surface has been scratched - there are hundreds. Will look forward to seeing more well researched and wikified articles.

The page as it exists now describes only how Mahikari see themselves, as objective fact. The history and origin of the group is disputed by its critics. There are also some contoversial practices which are not mentioned, such as rejection of modern medicine, apocalyptic beliefs, non-conventional views of history, geography and linguistics, ideological connection to the AUM sect, and much more.

An alternative perspective[1]
This seems to have the main features of a cult, which should also be reflected in the main article. Including the freely available reports of members of this cult who have escaped is truly neutral. The alternative perspective (above), or perhaps the free book [2] would be a good source. According to NPOV is seems wise to present both views in detail.
