Church of World Messianity (Solo Sagrado) (São Paulo)

 church  Add category

World Church of the Messianic Temple, following the example of nature, where everything grows from a small form or a small model, Mokiti Okada (1882-1955), also known as Meishu-Sama, started in 1945 in Japan to build prototypes of the Terrestrial Paradise, which he called Solo Sagrado.

These sites are characterized by the harmony between natural beauty and man-made. The goal of Meishu-Sama (which means "Lord of Light") was left to mankind the basis for the construction of an ideal world, embodied in the Truth, the Good and the Beautiful. He settled in the cities of Hakone, Kyoto and Atami, in order that from them, other models could be built around the world, like a pebble that is played in the center of a lake and will form circles of ripples to reach the margins.

In Brazil, the prototype of paradise was built outside the Guarapiranga reservoir in São Paulo, an area of 327 thousand square meters and is known as Solo Sagrado Guarapiranga. Today, it is considered one of the largest parks in the contemplation of nature existing in Brazil.

Harmonizing the beauty of the West to the East, its construction began in 1991 after an elaborate project in which every detail has been designed to give people a place where they could meditate and get in tune with nature, increasing your spirituality . For this, thousands of volunteers from all over Brazil and also from other countries alternated in joint efforts and contributed, imbuing the place with his love, gratitude and sincerity.
