Altars

SUKYO MAHIKARI ALTARS

Ancestor Altars and Altars for an individual or a training place are designed based on the client’s desires.  They are intended for those people receiving God’s Light through the practice of Sukyo Mahikari.  These altars, much like Shaker items I build, have simplicity of lines,         are built with great internal strength, and have a specific purpose.           God’s plan is focused on people working together to establish a civilization where people’s faith in God manifests their desire to live in harmony  with nature and  other people.  

As a furniture maker I approach Altar design and construction mindful of the requirements of maintaining harmony with nature and with the knowledge that the process that provides the craftsman a religious experience. Forces can combine to work against the craftsman who is working to finish a harmonious Altar. Constructing an Altar requires that the craftsman’s attention be placed on that item alone.  The components must be brought together and assembled with respect while constantly striving to maintain continuity of component parts to insure beauty and strength.

Wood selection, strength of construction, hand finishing, and design insure the finished Altar will serve for generations.
