I have finally noticed that I feel uncomfortable with the fact that, although my inner state has changed greatly, the clothes I wear, the things I own, and the environment in which I live have remained the same. Today, I began rearranging my home by laying down a single carpet. Whenever something begins for me, it is always with a single thing—like a single table runner from which I end up completely renovating my home. Something I encounter becomes the beginning of an overall transformation. Tokyo Koma-ya, too, underwent a complete renovation after I encountered a single chair. Encounters are the future. I am encountering the future itself. Today, after rearranging my home and getting rid of things that needed to be discarded, I felt tremendously refreshed. Then, a powerful energy to try anything began to overflow within me. It is a very hot summer, and these days I often think about how I want us all to stay well and get through it together. First of all, when I drink the “Tamashii” (soul) coffee roasted by Master Idaki Shin, I am instantly filled with energy, and I am grateful that my body naturally begins to move. This is something everyone who works with me says as well. We are all supported by the “Tamashii” coffee roasted by Master Idaki Shin. Today, through the experience of being in the space I had rearranged, I also experienced that creating a space and environment in which it is easier to express oneself can become a great source of strength. New ideas for trying various things began to emerge, and creating what lies ahead has become increasingly enjoyable. Drinking the “Tamashii” coffee every day, I wish to keep moving forward, one step at a time.
Today, at Food for Life—Kitchen Labo, Brillante Il Suzuki and Yui-Kobo chef provided us with an Italian meal. I enjoyed delicious dishes that cannot be found anywhere else, and it was a very enjoyable time. In this hot summer, enjoying delicious food, drinking delicious coffee, doing what I want to do, creating the future, I want to spend each day moving forward, getting through the heat. Thank you.
Hello.
Although the intense heat continues day after day, whenever I think of doing what my life itself demands—telling many people about Master Idaki Shin’s concerts—strength wells up from the depths of my being, and I am grateful that even the heat becomes no obstacle at all. It has been this way for a long time. However painful things may be, whenever I recommend his concerts, strength rises steadily from within me. That is how I have always been saved. At his concerts, I have had the extraordinary experience of my very life being lifted all at once and soaring. Through this, I have been able to remain in good health, come to understand many things, and survive to this day. Now that the world is in such a grave state, what we need above all is a new world. I know that his concerts offer the best solution and bring that new world into being. I am therefore filled with one wish alone: that as many people as possible will come to his concerts.
Yesterday, I met someone from the very part of southern Lebanon that had been attacked by Israeli forces. His home and factory had been destroyed in the bombing. Even so, he had made it safely to Japan and had come to continue doing various things. Whenever I visited the Middle East, I was deeply impressed by the resilience of its people: bombings would destroy their homes, businesses, and shops in an instant, yet they would rebuild. Yesterday, I felt once again that we should learn from that resilience. If we all use our wisdom and abilities, we can create a new world and make the world a better place. I sincerely hope that, with this spirit in mind, we will join forces and create a new world—a better society where no more lives are lost. Thank you very much.

Improvisation Poem
18th Jul. 2026 / in Tokyo
Feelings deep within us
connect with Great Being
and begin to emerge,
becoming light,
becoming flowers.
We can express our feelings
and bring them to life—
now.
When we express our feelings,
flowers of light
blossom open in space.

"Kaze-no-Tayori"
3rd June. 2026
A strong, powerful wind
shows us the way—
to move at once,
toward a new world,
toward an unknown world.
Rising up
into the far beyond.
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.
