Akita
« on: September 29, 2023, 09:41:23 AM »
The following take on Akita was posted on the Internet:

We should avoid anything connected with the supposed “miracles” which are claimed to have occurred at a novus ordo convent in Akita, Japan, during the 1970s.  These supposed “miracles”  include a statue which dripped “tears” and “blood” and also some supposed supernatural “locutions”.
We hold that there are good reasons to consider that these supposed “locutions” and “miracles” are false.  Further, all of the Akita events are well within the power and abilities of Satan.
1.    These events were centered on a naturalistic statue carved by a non-Catholic man.  See the picture below.  This statue is an unfitting subject of anything which is really connected to God and His Mother!
2.    Notice that the supposed “Blessed Virgin” is not standing at the foot of the Cross of her Son, as Catholic Tradition depicts her.  Instead, she is in front of, and is blocking, the sight of the cross and of her Son.

3.    The supposed “miracles and locutions” did not bring the “seer” to Catholic Tradition.  The “seer” and the other novus ordo nuns stayed in the evil new conciliar church.  Nor have we any indication that anyone else has come to Catholic Tradition through these events at Akita.
4.    The supposed “visits” of this “apparition” were so many – 101 of them! – compared to the relatively small number of apparitions which occurred in authentic, approved apparitions.
5.    The supposed “locutions” contained a generic request from the supposedly “heavenly” personage to pray for the pope.  But there was absolutely nothing about the pope and hierarchy being utterly unfaithful stewards of Christ.  We don’t believe that a real locution from Heaven would avoid warning about and commenting on the worst popes in history!
6.    There was no condemnation of Vatican II or the new mass or the other conciliar evils that are afflicting the Church’s human element.  We don’t believe that the worst and most destructive events in at least 500 years (if not in the whole history of the Church) would pass in silence, especially when the supposed “seer” is part of that new church.
7.    Saburo Wakasa, the man who carved the statue, was not only non-Catholic when he carved the statue but he remained a non-Catholic.
Conclusion: Stay away from the Akita events which are likely from Satan!



The “new” SSPX promotes these “wonders” (which are likely from Satan) and leads an annual “pilgrimage” to Akita for its undiscerning followers.
The liberalizing Bishop Williamson Group likewise endorses these likely-demonic “wonders”.
These liberal groups’ promotion of these apparently-false conciliar “wonders” is a good reminder that we should stay far away from these compromise groups.

Bishop Williamson does not have a "group." So, who else is the author referring to that "endorses these likely-demonic 'wonders' "?

Approved in 1973 by the Novus Ordo. 'Nuff said.

I agree that Akita is nonsense.  I think the Dimond Brothers gave the best reason for the rationale behind these, assuming they're real (i.e. of diabolical agency) and not derivative of psychological issues or fraud on the part of the "seer".  As Padre Pio told Father Amorth, and as others who read the Third Secret have indicated, it's about a spiritual chastisement, the apostasy, the anti-Church, and not about physical chastisements (Padre Pio explicitly said this to Father Amorth).

But the emphasis of Garabandal and Akita is on some kind of physical calamities, with Akita's "fire from heaven".  This is a distraction from the actual message, which indicates that the chastisement is well under way, since about 1960.  So while everyone is looking up to the skies, they're not seeing what's right under their noses.  Garabandal (clearly diabolical) came right after the Third Secret was to be revealed, Akita a little later, after the NOM was released.  Akita also speaks about "bishops vs. bishops", as if to characterize the strife as something internal within the Church rather than that nearly all the bishops would become apostates.
