Today, Master Idaki Shin's first applied course of the year was held in Tokyo. His talks are always timely. The very things I contemplate daily, questions that remain unanswered no matter how much I ponder, become themes, and I can break free from them decisively. Just by listening to his talk, I was able to see the whole, and I was touched by his way of expressing even unspoken nuances and sensations that lie beyond words as if I could see them. I experienced the joy of understanding something today. I also experienced today how enjoyable it is to understand something. It brought me happiness to be able to understand matters concerning both the world and Japan as if they were my own, allowing me to think things thoroughly. Today, I felt keenly the importance of not only being anxious or worried, but of thinking by myself and creating a path. I strongly believe that by correctly recognizing and accepting the current situation, and through the continuous process of thinking and moving forward, a path will definitely be created. I am most grateful and thankful that there is a definite clue. The answers to questions that had always lingered in my mind became clear, and it became the beginning of moving onto the next step. Understanding leads to the beginning. And understanding gives birth to movement. I was given the opportunity to experience once again today that understanding correctly enables one to move forward. I feel more than ever that Master Idaki Shin's talks are truly special. The words express the whole individual, and in a single phrase, everything from his background is revealed. As I listened to his talk today, I was filled with admiration, thinking that surely no one else could express things in such a way. There is no greater blessing than to meet Master Idaki Shin, and to listen to his talks. I feel profound gratitude for being blessed with such opportunities in life, and a desire arises within me to work each day so that I may utilize them for the benefit of the world. Thank you very much.
