Tomio Kikuchi (born Tomio Kikuchi; February 12, 1926 – April 4, 2019) was a Japanese teacher, thinker, and strategist. Naturalized Brazilian on April 20, 1972, he arrived in Brazil in 1955 with the purpose of self-realization and social transformation. He worked hard to develop and disseminate the theory and practice of the One Principle and a vitalizing and evolutionary educational process based on the simultaneous education of thought, feeling, and will through the practice of self-control of mental and physical nutrition, breathing, and movement. He gave courses and lectures in Brazil and abroad, influencing the macrobiotic movement in South America.

He died on April 4, 2019, at his home, due to difficulties in recovering from a fracture in his left humerus. According to a note published by his family, he was conscious throughout the process and said that all participants in lifelong self-education (autoeducação vitalícia) - a philosophy he developed throughout his life - should continue the educational process that he had the honor of nurturing. In addition, he emphasized that he was aware of having fulfilled his mission.^[1]

Biography

He spent his childhood and adolescence on his parents' rural property, from where he left to fight on the front in World War II. After the war, he went to Tokyo.

Seeking something that would give him a meaning in life amidst the atmosphere created by the Japanese defeat, he met Radhabinod Pal, President of the University of Calcutta and the International Law Association. He impressed him in the lectures he gave in Tokyo for the moral upliftment of Japanese youth. He was also influenced by Yukio Ozaki, a member of parliament who fought for a world government, and by Kenzo Futaki, a physician and scientist who discovered the spirochete of the bubonic plague. He worked actively to rebuild the morale of the Japanese people, shaken by the destruction caused by the Second World War. From 1948 to 1953, he was a direct disciple of George Ohsawa, a systematizer and disseminator of a set of confirmations of nature, which he called Single Principle. He was Director of the Maison Ignoramus School and responsible for the editorial department of the Georges Ohsawa Study Center in Tokyo.

In 1955 he travels to disseminate the theory and practice of the Single Principle, founding the Musso School and the Single Principle Institute of Brazil, of which he is president.

He develops and divulges an educational process based on the simultaneous education of thought, feeling and will through the practice of self-control of mental nutrition, physical nutrition and movement. This educational system is formed by the "Instituto Princípio Único do Brasil", "Centro Internacional de Auto-Educação Vitalícia", "Comunidade Escola Musso", "Academia de Aikido Mussubi", "Escola de Nutrição Satori" and "Editora Musso Publicações", of which he is the founder.

He has the largest volume of works published in Portuguese by an immigrant of Japanese origin. On March 25, 1998, in recognition of the benefits he has provided to the Brazilian people, and especially to the population of the capital of São Paulo, Professor Kikuchi was awarded the title of "Citizen of São Paulo" by the Municipal Chamber of São Paulo
