I feel what is happening in Iran as my own, and for the first time I sensed as reality, the anxiety that Japan too could be attacked at any moment. At first, I was overwhelmed by unease and fear, yet as I felt deep inside myself, I began to consider what could be done. At that time, the answer emerged while giving poetic form to the inner landscapes of each person during the Legendary Cafe of Koguryo we opened in Goshominami. I perceived that when each individual brings forth the power one inherently possesses, and when those powers are united, it becomes possible to create a world in which everyone can truly live. Here lie hope and possibilities. With heartfelt gratitude that another concert by Master Idaki Shin was going to be held today to open this very possibility, I went to ROHM Theatre Kyoto. The concert message was precisely the message most needed at this moment. Through that message, we were shown the path from the causes of war toward their resolution. Because it was a concert, we could even experience the contents of the message with our very lives. Within the experience of the concert, I experienced exactly as conveyed in the message and found the answer. Making full use of my innate qualities—sensitivity to hear the voice of nature’s life and the voice of souls—I resolved in my heart to devote myself entirely to connect with the world far beyond inside, listen to divine messages that come forth, and put those messages into action. I vow from my heart to exert my fullest potential and work together with others to create a world in which human lives are never again sacrificed. That Iran, a place we have visited many times and held many concerts, is being destroyed is my own pain. I continue to pray unceasingly that there will be no more destruction and no more loss of life. My heart also aches unbearably at the news that Lebanon, where I have been named a Permanent Honorary Citizen, has been attacked across the entire country. It is now an urgent task for us to join our strength and to create a world, as swiftly as possible, in which no life is sacrificed and no life is harmed. I am committed to continuing this work. As there will be another concert tomorrow at our Guesthouse, I will live in a way that fully makes use of the concert experiences. Thank you.
Hello.
It is now March. Spring has come, and flowers have begun to bloom, making it a truly radiant season. Yet it pains my heart that conflicts continue to erupt around the world, creating such grave circumstances. Amidst this, Master Idaki Shin’s concert will be held in Kyoto tomorrow. Constantly receiving the negative energy of the world, he dissolves it and expresses humanity’s innate workings through his improvisational music. There, we can experience love. Because this experience exists, we can continue living—with the hope that the world will change and no longer remain a place filled with conflict. I have found that increasing the number of his concerts, even by one more, and offering this experience to as many people as possible is the quickest way to bring about a better world. For this reason, I continue to organize them. I am deeply grateful that the concert will be held tomorrow, and I hope we can gather there together.
Before the concert, we will hold the Legendary Cafe of Koguryo at Komaya, on the south side of the Kyoto Imperial Palace, from 1:30 p.m. for about two hours. Koma Gallery Cafe at Yasaka will also be open, and I would be delighted if you could stop by. Thank you very much.

Improvisation Poem
24th Feb. 2026 / in Tokyo
Receiving great guidance,
I step forward.
The field moves,
space moves.
Receiving abundant guidance,
a future opens.
A new world is born.
An infinite world unfolds—
the true life of living humans begins.

"Kaze-no-Tayori"
25th Feb. 2026
The earth, the trees—
wet from the rain.
The wind, one with the rain.
Uniting space,
waiting, preparing
for the birth of a new world.
Wind, still blowing through life today.
The heart reaches beyond.
Wind—toward the beyond.
As one,
I live.
Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered Concert – October 23rd, 2017 Kyoto
An infinitely transparent and beautiful world,
A single shining blue star,
An eternal soul.
The 19th king of Koguryo, Gwanggaeto the Great,
Was born under a light of Heaven,
In a world of war.
He continued to fight, and continued fighting.
He became a young king,
Leading the vanguard ahead.
He was challenged to risk his life in the middle of enemies.
The enemies, admiring the beauty of the young king,
Left without fighting.
He met desirable people to live together with,
Who became people of Koguryo, so we hear.
A wind was blowing in the land of the Gwanggaeto the Great, an infinity, an eternity, a clear mind.
He lived and kept his purest soul.
He entered into the enemy with an intention not to sacrifice anyone else's life.
He continued to fight.
There was a limit in this world, and
There was a limit in Heaven, he realized.
Soon or later far beyond Heaven,
An infinite world would be opened. Believing so,
He lived and fought together with Heaven.
Why could a human not live without a fight?
Why could a human kill a precious life?
He questioned the infinite world.
Soon or later, far beyond Heaven,
A time in which a light of the origin would appear,
A time in which many souls would accomplish their wish,
While knowing that there was a limit in Heaven,
A sorrow through his life with Heaven,
was engraved on the ground.
A time in which the land of sorrow would turn into light.
He continued to wish even after death, continued working,
He continued to make a time which would open far beyond Heaven
An appearance of a light of the origin,
An infinite world, opened far beyond Heaven.
All souls would wake up, revive, and gather.
The Beginning of a new era of new human beings.
Special message
Love transcending space-time
Brilliantly and beautifully shining internality manifests the authentic state of our life full of love.
In my teens, I suffered from many diseases almost in every part of my body and experienced life and death crises several times. In such a critical moment I shed tears with slight hope. And after a dozen of years of investigations, I realized the source of hope I had embraced as an eternal bearing for opening up a future. By properly acknowledging the internal conditions of my body, I discovered that communion with another person’s life happened within my body and not only mine but another person’s physical or mental pains and a state of illness can be nursed gradually or rapidly owing to the nature of human life that could meet others in a much broader and unknown dimensional space. I did not need to operate consciously nor wish to make this process happen: towards unity with nature, everything happened just naturally and repeatedly. Now my piano improvisations express this marvelous encounter with people at a very deep level of human life so that each of you may realize an authentic state of love and realize that your life is indeed shining on to eternity in this vast universal space.
