While in Morioka, it is my daily routine to open the window at home to view the landscape. The different scenery each day is dramatic. Today a blue wind was blowing across the night sky, infinitely high and lucid. The souls of Aterui and the Emishi people had revived and were together with us. Their feelings of sorrow were liberated, and their shining souls were united with us. The pleasant wind had the appearance of beautiful and courageous souls. When I looked over at the flowing river, the wind of a foreign land was blowing. It was a mystical scenery. I recalled a scene in Isfahan, Iran where a man and a woman were talking to each other on the bridge over a river. Although by law, men and women were not allowed to be seen in public together, the pleasant air surrounding the couple made me smile. Feeling the wind in Morioka that was connected to the foreign land, I realized that souls I encountered all over the world were together with us. My soul trembled that they were part of "Great" supporters who were united with us. On the beautiful night, I swore to my heart that I would move forward to realize the earnest wishes of the souls.
I had a pleasant time holding a volunteer meeting at the Tohoku center to head towards the "Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered" concert to be held in Sendai and Hirosaki in May. Afterwards, I selected my original Venetian glass necklaces for some people. I became excited when I felt a new wind from the internality of each person. The core of one’s life was set, and a new movement seemed to be born from the core. I am excited to see how our activities will develop from now on. I perceive that our past activities will come to fruition this year. Everything has changed. A message I heard at the shrine where Sarutahiko Okami was enshrined has been realized–“Everything will come out: what used be hidden will be revealed.” I perceive that now is an era of "Idaki." Foreseeing that our actions will be successful, I look forward to moving ahead. The new wind blowing at the Tohoku center became one with the blue wind blowing in the night sky, filling the space with energy expanding upwards.
