In my teens I visited the ancient city of Kyoto.
I remember how deeply at home I felt.
My father should have walked along the same Kamo river
whose surface I was looking at,
trying to see a reminiscence of his face.
I saw through my tears how he dedicated himself to making other people happy and wished to open up a future for coming generations.
I would never forget how sad he was to have his soul buried deep under the earth.
I came to understand that the sadness of numerous souls of people in the past has been handed over generations until this moment should come when heavenly light comes down to earth to manifest truth.
All the souls of people alive and in the past as well shall get together to pave the way for the future of life. For life is now unified with the core of the universe to give birth to love.
One step forward makes anyone encounter the light coming from far beyond Heaven.
Everybody is here.
This world blessed by heavenly light fulfills the most cherished wishes of human beings: love.
