OKAGE SAMADE, meaning appreciation of the invisible world

There is a Japanese phrase called OKAGE SAMADE, which means I appreciate everything in the invisible world. People speak about this phrase as a custom, without an understanding of its deeper meaning. Some people are aware of its meaning, others are not. However, when you observe this phrase, there are much deeper meanings.

OKAGE means invisible world. Some people say I appreciate my happiness, health, prosperity, and achievement because of help and support from the invisible world. It is an expression of appreciation.

We need to be aware that we live in a three dimensional physical world. But there is a much deeper higher dimension as well. The world beyond three dimensions is much larger than our perceived three dimensional world. We need to constantly remind ourselves that there are much higher dimensions in our universe and in our world.

The key point is that if we wish to change ourselves for the better, we must constantly connect the invisible world, such as the divine world or higher consciousness or higher vibration. That is why meditation, contemplation, and prayer are so important. We must consciously receive, appreciate, and integrate higher vibration and divine grace.
