Breast Cancer Overcoming Experience: 5 Months to Live, The Power of the Mind that Changed My Destiny【Happy Science Believer's Experience】

Nov. 1, 2015（Last Update: June 13, 2026）

5 months to live, stage 4 terminal breast cancer has been cured.

I noticed a discomfort in my right breast at an unexpected moment. The diagnosis I received after visiting the internal medicine department was stage 4 terminal breast cancer.

The power of the mind that changed my destiny: "I want to live to help others"

No matter how much treatment I received, the progression did not stop.

"The cancer is the size of a fist, and it has metastasized to lymph nodes and bones, so surgery is not possible." When I received the diagnosis of 5 months to live from the doctor, it was so sudden that I was left speechless. The daily battles that began from that point were painful days. No matter how much treatment I underwent, the cancer's progression did not stop, and I was losing my will to fight. The end of life was approaching. "What would it feel like to truly accept death?" I had been a believer in Happy Science for many years, learning that "there is an afterlife even after death. People are reincarnating to refine their character. Death is a graduation." However, when I was truly confronted with the "end," I didn't feel strong fear, but I wanted to face myself and understand what it truly meant to accept it.

After receiving training from Happy Science

"Let's go to Happy Science training". Whenever I faced difficulties in life or had something I wanted to achieve, I had a habit of quietly facing myself during Happy Science training. During the training, various thoughts came and went in deep meditation. Even without cancer, people will eventually die—. Until now, I had thought of myself as a strong person... Have I really been able to love others in this life...?

One year after the prognosis—The cancer has disappeared

As I reflected on my life with a calm heart, a thought arose within me. "Ah, I want to live a life that is more helpful to others." This thought gradually transformed into a strong sense of mission to live my life. It was from there that my destiny began to change significantly. I turned the "sense of mission" I felt during training into the form of "prayer," and I repeatedly received healing prayers from Happy Science. And one year after the prognosis—"The cancer has disappeared." Seeing the doctor's astonished expression filled me with gratitude. A lot of time has passed since then, but without any recurrence, I am living my life to the fullest, "helping others."

Planting thoughts in the subconscious mind

Excerpted message from 'The Healing Power - This is How Illness is Cured -' (by Ryuho Okawa / Happy Science Publishing) open_in_new

Free yourself from self-centered painful thoughts.

In any case, the ultimate form of illness is the form of a self-centered person. Since it often manifests as a pitiful self-centered state, please visualize a self-image that is the complete opposite of that state and think, "I will become like that."
And even if it doesn't heal immediately, it is important to maintain the feeling that "little by little, I am trying to change for the better."
In fact, by doing so, you are planting "ways of thinking" into your subconscious mind. To do this, you need to establish a "pattern," so it is necessary to plant it into your subconscious in the same way every day. (Omitted)
If you keep telling your bad parts, "You are bad," it won't get better, so it is important to have a mindset like, "You've done well until today. Thank you. From now on, we will have a relationship for a few more years or decades, but if you get even a little better, I feel like I can contribute to the world and give back to my family a little. So, let's get better little by little every day." This kind of mindset is important. Then, you will see a response.
You might think that organs, which are representative of involuntary muscles, are beyond your control, but the places where illness occurs mostly correspond to involuntary muscles. Therefore, you might think there are many areas that are not free, but you can still influence those areas that you think are not free.
This is because, as mentioned earlier, they are deeply influenced by the subconscious. The subconscious is a "tendency of the mind," so if you continue to think about it for a long time, it will permeate.
