The appearance of beautiful cherry trees in bloom at Jingu Gaien reminded me of Japanese beauty. Being born a human, I contemplated committing myself to live a human life. Owing to the tea ceremony house we built on Mt. Hiei, I was moved to learn the beautiful spirit of the Japanese. Being purified completely, with an internality connected to the universe and a heart serene and clear, I felt as happy as a genuine human at the richness of living together with other people. After building our tea room and hosting a ceremony, I feel the spirit of the Japanese from cherry blossoms and the heart of the Japanese from the beautiful clarity of canola flowers and yellow flowers on the bank of a river. I have been experiencing a spring filled with beauty and richness. Although my heart is darkened at times by the state of crisis of humankind, and because of that, I strongly feel the need to acquire living beautifully wholly as a human being. I deeply feel every day that staying human at all times is what living is. I would be grateful if I could devote all my energy to world peace by building on the richness and blessing of living a life filled with realization, learning, and growth each passing day. Thank you very much.
