From the viewpoint of religion, the researcher collate the background of religious belief before knowing Mahikari. To know the original religious belief in influence from original family, after then, I joined Mahikari seminar, also became a Mahikari’s Kamikumite, Mahikari has been my religious belief for six years until now. 　　In my paper, I’ll introduce the background of the system about World Divine Light Organization Sekai Mahikari Bunmei Kyodan in the world, for instance, history, ceremonies and organizations and so forth. The purpose of this study is focus on the experiences of mine to know Mahikari and make it to be my belief rather than discussing the system. By self-reflection realize the meaning of life through the description about experiences of the special, strong personal religious belief. For this reason, to make readers understanding the meaning and influences of Mahikari on researcher’s(me) history of life(, personality and values) by describing the life story. And make reflections for self-changing from the religious belief in the histor of life. 　　The completion of this thesis has an extraordinary meaning for me. The narration is not only exposure of my life experiences or the explanation of phenomena and actions but also a deeper and different understanding of myself even life. Through a six-year research process, this religion, Mahikari, has changed the way I see the world and the judgment of moral. As a teacher, my educational concept and the way to treat children have been changed (by Mahikari). In pursuit of becoming mature in spirituality, it also show me the missing piece of education in Taiwan. Religious education or spiritual education must be a part of education in the future that needs to be seriously considered and explored, so I hoped that the results of this study offer some worthwhile ideology to the religious education in Taiwan through the shallow experience of researcher.
