Process to Become a Member

The membership process requires a person’s will to learn and put Kami’s teachings into practice in pursuit of happiness. We will answer your questions and guide you so that you can grasp the value of learning and complete the procedures. So, the person wishing to become a member should complete the procedures themselves.

Membership Registration Procedure

●Where to Register

Kōju no Yakata 1st floor information desk at Shinsōhonbu
All Hikari no Yakata locations in Japan

 

●Register Process

・Please present some form of ID.

・Please fill out the required documents, affix your seal, and pay the 30,000 yen contribution fee and 5,000 yen registration fee.

・Kami teaches us that the age of 15 is the turning point of adulthood. Therefore, Shinji Kyōkai considers those 15 years of age and older to be Shin Kaiin (adult members) and those under 15 to be Tomo Kaiin (child members).

・Please pay annual fees for the following year
(9,600 yen per year; 6,000 yen for Tomo Kaiin (children) within the same year as the operating expenses of Shinji Kyōkai. From the second year onwards, you will be required to pay the annual fees for the following year in advance each year. The payment will be automatically deducted from your financial institution as autopay, so we will also process your account transfer.)

 

●Registration Requirements for those under 18 Years of Age

For those under 18 years of age, we have established the following rules so that families can grow (emotionally and spiritually) together.

・For children before entering elementary school: One of the parents must be a registered member, and the other parent’s approval is required.

・If the child has entered elementary school but is under 15 years of age: If the child wishes to become a member, one of his or her parents must be a registered member, and both parents' approval is required to complete the registration.

・If the child is over 15 years of age but under 18 years of age: If you wish to become a registered member and have the parents’ approval, you may complete the procedure.
