The Age of Gods In the old
times, on the earth, there was the Age of Gods,
The Gods' Love filled the earth with peace,
--- There are such legends, which are left
all around the world. The legends also say
that after Gods had scattered far away, the
Age of Darkness had come around. And
according to the legends, when Gods went apart,
they promised each other, "At the
beginning of the New Cycle, meet us at the
center of the Universe", "Next time, meet us
at the center of the universe!" Today, all
the stars in the sky, and all the people on the
earth, start talking about the beginning of
the New Cycle. How can we live in harmony?
What is peace? How can we keep peace
forever? Here comes the time when Gods meet
again. "Meet us at the Center of the
Universe" Wish you have a sacred journey.
