25th Jan. 2026 / in Tokyo

I resolved in my heart to carry out revelations and began to live accordingly. For a long time, since childhood, having endured the agony of being doubted by others for seeing what cannot be seen, I developed a deep fear of expressing revelations or speaking of perceiving what others cannot. As a result, keeping silent became second nature to me. Since I decided to put revelations into practice, habits and old tendencies sometimes emerge unconsciously, but when I notice them promptly and quieten my heart to receive guidance, I can see with my eyes and feel in my life how countless works are being bestowed. It feels exceedingly rich and smooth, and I am deeply happy and thankful that an inner state opens in which I can keep moving toward the future. Today at Tokyo Koma-ya, we held a gathering listening to the “Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered” performed in Komae on November 28th last year. When it became clear to me, so as to see it, that all my improvised poems of the “Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered” express revelations, I felt reassured in recognizing that it is enough to live as if standing always on the stage of “Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered.” It is a stage I perform on in complete earnest. If, in everyday life as well, I could live by expressing the workings in words with the same earnest resolve, I could see that a path forward would open widely. Today’s gathering at Komaya, “Today’s Talk and Gathering to Express in Poetry the Deepest Wishes That Arise as We Move Toward Full Houses for Concerts,” was also an exceptionally fulfilling, rich, and joyful occasion. It is the opportunity I find most interesting at present, because I know well that by expressing one's deepest wishes that arise and putting them into action, the future unfolds. In writing poetry, you are recording what you will do. As you carry this out in daily life and put newly arising innermost wishes into action one after another, I understand, so as to see it, that you will experience great leaps. There is a year-long path of giving our all toward obtaining full houses at each concert, culminating in aiming for a full house at the Kyoto Concert Hall on December 1st. Carrying things out every day is a joy. At Komaya, I have irreplaceable experiences. Surrounded by solid wood, in a space with superb acoustics, we listen to the music of Master Idaki Shin, and all share coffee specially roasted by Master Idaki Shin—it is an extraordinarily blessed environment. Making full use of this environment, I wish to express ever more fully my deepest wishes that arise and put them into practice to realize myself and to move toward realization of world peace. With heartfelt gratitude, thank you very much.
