Towards "Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered" Concert
Along the avenue of cherry trees, petals swirl in the spring breeze, and the ground has begun to take on a gentle blush of pink. As I stood beneath the blossoms at night to enjoy their view, I perceived a vision in which the spirit of the cherry blossoms and the flower blooming within my heart became one blossom, unfolding as a flower of love. I earnestly wish to live united with the life of nature and to welcome the moment of full bloom. Wars continue in the world, and when I think of the many people who live in harsh conditions, my heart aches deeply. And while here in Japan, I spend my days unable to remain still, filled with a sense of urgency. Although it’s the season of the cherry blossoms coming into bloom, sadly, the condition in which human beings are living is far from spring, and I sincerely wish to transform human society that runs counter to the laws of life.
Today, at Kitchen Labo, I had the opportunity to enjoy gnocchi prepared by an Italian chef. I was grateful to have this authentic dish. Kitchen Labo, operated by NPO Koma, is a place where people may do what they enjoy and work together. Through the combined efforts of many, they offer food that is both delicious and nourishing to the body. It will be open again tomorrow, and I would be most delighted if you could come and enjoy it. Whatever the circumstances, I hope that we may continue, step by step together, to advance a way of living that contributes to the world. Thank you.

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.
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.
