When I opened the window, the birds sang, as if they were speaking to me. In an instant, I encountered Mount Fuji, and my heart opened wide. It was a morning filled with anxiety and fear. I worried that something might be happening somewhere in the world. And I wrote in my notebook that when even one more person connects with beyond and lives shining brilliantly at any time, it will change the situation, and I confirmed this within myself. The scenery within my heart taught me that nothing can stand in the way of one’s internality connected to heaven. I reaffirmed that I would live connected to the world beyond heaven at all times, never losing my center, and the day began. The words of Master Idaki Shin, who said that if we keep doing the same things at the same time, we cannot create work that paves the way into the future, came to mind. So today, I tried my best to avoid repeating the same patterns and moved toward something new. By chance, I had a very enjoyable time. The vibrant energy of conducting concerts abroad came alive again as I encountered the fragrances of foreign countries. Living and moving each day as my heart leads me, I feel certain that the future will unfold. Today's experience has made me feel this way, and I feel very hopeful. Thank you very much.
