The authors suggest the strong possibility that clairvoyance, where subjects can perceive letters or objects written on paper that is rolled up or folded and placed in their hand or ear, does indeed exist in the preceding report. In this report, the authors have sought to more strongly prove the existence of this type of clairvoyance and to investigate its characteristics and mechanism through various experiments carried out on six subjects. In a total of seventy-eight trials, the subjects were correct a remarkable 74.4% of the time, and these data could support the verification results in the preceding report. Moreover, the following interesting results have been obtained regarding clairvoyance. (1) The subjects were not greatly influenced by the difference between the two target samples (one was written by a word-processor and the other was written by hand). (2) The subjects could recognize colors, particularly "black," "red" and "blue." (3) The subjects could recognize plural target samples simultaneously. (4) The subjects failed to recognize target samples written with thermosensitive ink in four trials. (5) The subjects could perceive letters or objects written on both sides of the paper. (6) The subjects could recognize target samples without touching them. The authors hope that these test results will present significant data on the research of clairvoyance.

湯浅にとって比較思想とはどのような意味を持っていたのだろうか。また、それを通して何を明らかにしようとしたのか。この問いについて身体論に焦点を当て、人間のいのちの次元と密接につながっている超越への問いをめぐって、湯浅がどのように接近を試みているかを探りたい。湯浅の比較哲学の特徴は、単に既成概念やある特定の価値観から一方的に思想や思想家を評価するのではなく、思想史の全体像を観察することを通して、それらが成り立ってきた背景や体験の性質に着目する点である。本稿では、湯浅の比較思想研究の特徴と課題について次の二つの視点から明らかにしたい。第一に、湯浅の身体論発展の契機となった、近代日本哲学研究である。湯浅の思索の超文化性は、彼の師である和辻哲郎や西田幾多郎に代表される近代日本の哲学者から継承された遺産であるということができる。第二に、西洋の伝統思想と東洋の伝統思想に見いだされる超越をめぐる思考法(型) の比較である。湯浅は、それぞれの伝統文化のこの体験において築かれた超越観の成り立ちに着目し、その違いと共通性を探ろうとした。湯浅の身体論と超越の問題を軸に、比較思想の方法論を明らかにすることは、超文化哲学構築のカギとなることが期待される。

Yuasa Yasuo's inquiry into Eastern philosophy is seeking to formulate a new perspective from which to rethink Western philosophy fundamentally. This kind of philosophical undertaking is shared by many modern Japanese philosophers like Nishida Kitaro and Watsuji Tetsuro. However, Yuasa also had his own and unique concerns. One can find these in his many books and articles on modern Japanese philosophy, especially, in his fearless criticism of former Japanese philosophers. In this paper, the author examines Yuasa's book The Body: Toward an Eastern Mind-Body Theory in regards to interpretation and criticism of Nishida's philosophy and argues that although these two philosophers have many shared interests they also have some decidedly different ideas. For example, Yuasa distinguishes the realm of ordinary experience from that of religious experience in order to scrutinize how one can transit from the former to the latter by bodily religious practice. In contrast to Yuasa's distinction, Nishida focuses on the overlapping of these two realms. Yuasa criticizes Nishida's logic and his queries into the logical structure of above-mentioned overlapping, and employs psychological methods instead. Comparing these two thinkers offers some hints in regards to how we can rethink 'philosophy' and 'religion' in the light of Eastern philosophy and religion.

The purpose of this paper is to examine the cosmology of Lao-tzu (Laozi) not as an abstract philosophical theory, but as a psychological experience in his meditation practice. Lao-tzu's "Non-Being (Wu)" is the innner reality of "All things (Wanwu)" in our ordinary world and nothing other than the inner reality of the practitioner's consciousness itself. Thus, Lao-tzu purifies the "Qi-energy (Qi)" of his body through a kind of self-cultivation and proceeds to the source of the universe that is beyond subjective/objective distinction. Consequently, while unifying himself with the realm of "Tao (Dao)" or "Spirit (Shen)" that possesses mysterious power, he achieves a spiritual state in which he can reflect over the whole process as one flow of growth and return of the universe-consciousness, arising in his body as a field. Then the practitioner's identity expands and the usual divide between Being and Non-Being dissolves into the flow of this cyclic process. In such a state and when encountering "All things" of our ordinary world face to face, Lao-tzu still could do things as act of "non-action (wuwei)", while following the "spontaneous (ziran)" work of the invisible "One (Yi)" world behind the "All things," work that fills the universe beyond the distinction between self and other.

Certain kinds of neurological disorder which affect corporeal awareness and proprioception seem to indicate that one's body has a psychological dimension besides the material dimension. In this paper, examining cases of phantom limb and asomatognosia, we confirm that the body consists of two dimensions, the material and the psychological. From this viewpoint it is possible to say that the ordinary state of the body is an overlap of these two dimensions. Secondly, we seek to clarify the contents of embodied knowledge by re-examining the notion of body schema. Body schema is a term that appeared in neurology, which has been used to explain the subconscious schematic process underlying proprioception and corporeal awareness. The philosophy of Merleau-Ponty developed and extended the notion of body schema and successfully described the mechanism of one's habitual actions. Here we see the budding discussion on embodied knowledge. The contents of embodied knowledge are (1) subconsciously recognizing the spatial relation between one's body and surroundings, (2) expanding corporeal awareness to the end of instruments through repeated practice.

Unusually, we can not recognize Qi energy which is assumed in oriental medicine or oriental philosophy with ordinary observation system. For this reason, Qi energy had scarcely been regarded as serious problem. From a Quantum mechanical point of view which has similar way of thinking to that of oriental philosophy, Qi energy is considered to influence quantum wave function nonlocally. This idea is opposed to the present outlook of natural science. Therefore it is difficult to research Qi energy in present science. Conversely elucidation of Qi energy has a possibility of changing viewpoint of natural science.

私たちは独立した個人としてだけではなく、さまざまな共同体の成員として生活している。私たちの共同体の中には、老い、病、障害、失業、死別などさまざまな困難に遭遇する人たちがいる。とくに一人暮らしの高齢者は、心身面、経済面のそうした困難を複合的に抱えている。一方、現代社会においては、いついかなる運命が押し寄せ、自らも社会的弱者に位置づけられるのではないかという不安、恐怖が蔓延している。そこで本稿は、個人と共同体という観点から、周囲の者は悲嘆に苦しむ人たちに寄り添っていくための姿勢をどのように見出していけばいいのだろうかという問題に取り組む。個人と共同体の問題については、ドイツの二人の現象学の哲学者マックス・シェーラー(Max Scheler)とエディット・シュタイン(Edith Stein)が注目すべき考察を展開している。両者は、近代文明以降個人主義が台頭してきた中、それに危機感を感じ、正面から共同体のあり方の問題に取り組んだ。個人を重視する社会と、共同体の成員であることを重視する社会の狭間にあって、そのバランスをとるための共同体論を目論む。本稿は、「自分との関係」に関するシェーラーの哲学的分析、及び「他者との関係」に関するシュタインの哲学的分析に注目し、そこから悲嘆者に寄り添うための姿勢を私たちが持つための示唆を得ることを目的とする。

The purpose of this paper is to consider Cerebral Palsy as an experience of a body lived in the world, but not as a "lesion" that should be cure. A person with cerebral palsy can not articulate each muscle and region of his/her body, thus tonus on one part of muscle causes hyperkinesia of all part of a body. This paper uses phenomenology as a analytical frame work. This paper specifically uses the concept of "actual layer" and "potential layer" in a body defined by Merleau-Ponty. According to Merleau-Ponty, in order to make an intentional action of body actual, a body needs to make axis of the body that support it' s intentional action potential. From this point of view, potential layer stands out on the front of a body movement for cerebral palsy, while it goes down to the background of a body movement for a non-disability. The tremble and blur on a body of cerebral palsy is a the TIME gap from when a body tries to articulate its actual body like he/she raises his/her foot along with the stable course of movement. By this gap, a body try to swell out potential layer in body-space and create the Ground. The Ground supports organic synthesis in body-space that has been organized before it is articulated. It implies a body with cerebral palsy closes down toward the axis of a body and then tries to install the stable Ground in a body-space because potential layer presses a body-space.

Purpose: In acupuncture and moxibustion medicine, acupuncture and moxibustion do operation at acupoints (static acupoints) and reactive points (dynamic acupoints) in the skin. In the present study, focusing on the skin, we evaluated the influences of acupuncture on the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) and hydrogen ion concentration (pH) in epidermal local. Methods: The study was carried out in volunteers and patient groups. Acupuncture was performed at non-acupoints, static acupoints and dynamic acupoints. Changes in ORP, pH, and Aging Index (AI) after these parameters were evaluated. Results: No significant change was observed after acupuncture at non-acupoints and static acupoints. ORP significantly decreased, but pH showed no significant changes following acupuncture of Cu and Zn at dynamic acupoints. Conclusion: Acupuncture of Cu and Zn at dynamic acupoints may have changed an electric potential in local epidermis, resulting in a change of ORP and AI.

オリンピズムは近代オリンピックの復活を提唱したクーベルタンの造語である。造語は1962年の大島邦訳書『ピエール ド クベルタン オリンピックの回想』によれば「オリンピック主義」と直訳されている。他方で2015年版の『オリンピック憲章』は今日的なオ リンピズムの解釈として二つの基本的な指標を提示している。ひとつは「肉体と意志と精神」のすべてにおいてバランスのよい結合を目ざす「生き方の哲学」であって、他は「スポーツを文化と教育へ融合させる」ために「生き方の創造」を探求するものである。ところで1936年のクーベルタンは「私のオリンピズムは、まだ、任務の半分を象徴しているのにすぎない」と書き遺している。本稿では、クーベルタンのその最後の希望に焦点を当てて、 またジャーナリストとしての大島鎌吉が関与してきた日本におけるオリンピック運動を点検することにおいて、オリンピック運動の理念「オリンピズム」における核心的な課題について検討してみる。

Numerous examples of oral tales and other forms of ancient literature from various countries have referred to the existence of "Ajfia Chakra", a third eye, suggesting that human beings once had the power of "clairvoyance" the ability to see letters and objects without the use of eyesight. In the 20th century, such scientists as Tomokichi Fukuirai of Japan, J. B. Rhine of the United States, and Chen Shouliang of China conducted serious research into this area. While their studies affirmed the existence of this phenomenon, due to difficulties in repeatability and the possibility of unfair manipulation, these studies continue to be a subject of debate. Some other studies have suggested that clairvoyance, where subjects can perceive letters or objects written on paper that is folded or rolled up and placed in thier hand or ear, does not exist. We have sought to prove that this type of clairvoyance does indeed exist through the results of two test subjects, T. T. and Z. W. In 35 trials, T. T. was correct 97.1% of the time. Subject Z. W. participated in only three double-blind tests, but was able to correctly answer all three times. The probability of correct answers by chance is extremely low (3.7x10^<-8>). We hope that these test results will serve as a first step in putting to rest the continuing debate regarding the existence of clairvoyance.

The middle region of the breast and the middle region of the forehead of a subject were irradiated by artificial external qi emitted from a qi-generator made of a 80kHz quartz resonance system proposed previously by the author, where this artificial external qi was named EQR (emission from quartz resonance). Changes in human body impedance were investigated before, during and after the irradiation by the EQR. It was found that BP (before polarization) currents show statistically significant increases (p<0.05) which suggest increases in body fluids flows, while magnetic irradiations as a control experiment do not show statistically significant increases in the BP currents, where each BP current means the peak current which appears immediately after a square wave impulse of voltage is applied to the human body.

近年、坐禅に興味のある人が増え、実際に坐禅指導を受けようとする人も増えているが、坐禅を行う際に適切な指導者を見つけることは比較的困難である。これでは、潜在的な坐禅体験希望者に対応できない状態である。本研究では、このような問題を解決するために、ICT (Information and Communication Technology) を活用することによって坐禅を遠隔指導することが可能であるかについて検討する。従来の対面による坐禅指導とビデオ通信システムを利用した遠隔指導を比較し、検証を行った。被験者の生体反応を記録し、心拍変動( HRV) と脳波( EEG) を指標として分析を行った。結果として、対面指導と遠隔指導に、有意な差はなく、坐禅を遠隔によって指導することが可能であることが確認できた。さらに、坐禅の熟達者における心拍変動と脳波における相互関係についても検討を行った。その結果、熟達者の坐禅に於いては、心身はリラックス状態であるが、脳は活動的になっていることが解析結果によって明らかとなった。
