What does "Dai Rei Kai" mean in spiritual context?
I came across this as a spiritual movement that was championed by the late actor Tetsuro Tamba (most famous in the West for his portrayal of Tiger Tanaka in the James Bond movie "You Only Live Twice"). I can't seem to find anything about it though, and my Japanese is atrocious. I also know there are many meanings to the same syllables. Anyone got a clue as to what it means? Thanks in advance!
Thanks, RyoTa, for the transposition into Japanese characters; I searched with them, but all the answers came out in the same characters, which I can't read--I guess it is time to dig out that Learn Japanese CD. Also there was a site on something called "ReiKai Monogatari" which sounded like a vast conspiracy theory about the surreptitious replacement of the Meiji emperor with another...interesting, but kind of overwhelming with my limited knowledge of Meiji-era history. I suppose I'm just looking for clues for a sort of "spiritual hopscotch" using samurai films (I know Tamba from the excellent movie "Seppuku".) Many thanks!
