I have returned to Tokyo from Mount Hiei, with snow swirling in the air.
Although it was only four days, it feels as though months have passed.
The experiences of Master Idaki Shin’s lectures and concerts always carry such depth that even a single day can feel like a year, or even decades.
This time as well, I felt that many things that had been clinging to or covering my body were purified and fell away. My sensitivity has become one that feels things just as they are. Today, I felt deeply that it is time to acquire a new way of living.
Now I understand how essential it is for every aspect of daily life and the way we work to be shaped so that a new way of living can truly take root, so I am steadying my heart and preparing myself to live rightly from tomorrow.
I feel happy to be able to live with the sense that the future is opening.
And because I can see a beautiful vision of the future, I sincerely wish to devote myself to living each day—today and every day—with beauty in my internality, as I move toward that beautiful future. Once again today, I deeply felt that knowing something as knowledge and having it truly embodied within oneself are entirely different.
It was a day of deep reflection on the truth that for something truly to take root, One must live in accordance with it. From tomorrow, I will put this into practice.
Thank you very much.
