It was a morning with strong winds striking the windows.
When I opened the window, bright sunlight poured in, and clear air spread throughout space.
As I cleared my heart and listened to the message carried by the wind, it told me that a purifying wind was blowing. I feel that my internality is being purified, and this fills me with deep joy and overflowing gratitude.
Even while sleeping at night, there are times when I am taught through dreams. I am shown the meaning of why I was born and the truth of my existence. The other day, what Master Idaki Shin spoke about at the Entrepreneur Salon came to me again in my dreams, as though I were hearing it anew. And the more I understand, the more I experience―within the dream itself―what it means truly to know my own existence. When I awaken in the morning, a natural feeling arises within me: to live by making use of my innate qualities. And so I begin to move.
I can see what is invisible to the eye, and I can hear the voices of life within nature.
Ever since I first met Master Idaki Shin―now already forty-five years ago―I have continually experienced that when I give expression to these things through words or action, the future opens.
From the depths of my heart, since the age of three, I have prayed for world peace.
After meeting Master Idaki Shin, I have lived with the wish to move toward its realization through action. If, by expressing one’s inborn qualities and existence, it is possible to create a peaceful world, I feel there is nothing more precious than this.
With this feeling, starting today, I have begun to express and put into action even the smallest of things.
I know that wind and fragrance are messages of the soul.
Today, a photograph of narcissus flowers blooming across the Echizen coast―something that has long lived in my heart―suddenly came vividly into my awareness, and I received it as a message of the soul. Though it is a place far from Tokyo, a feeling arose within me that I wish to send a message there. I will try putting this into action.
There are many works that guide us, show us the path forward, and prepare the way.
Receiving these works, I have begun to move―expressing and acting upon them.
With the wish to create what lies ahead, I will continue to pursue it.
Thank you very much.
