The beautiful sight of shining new buds and tree leaves swaying in the wind moves me so deeply that my soul trembles with awe. Today, a strong wind was blowing. It conveyed movements arising across the world. Moreover, I learned that movements emerging are new, from which my own body naturally began to move as well. I learned that by continually advancing toward an unknown world, a new world comes into being. The situation in the world remains severe, and today again, I was pained by news footage showing the familiar city of Beirut in Lebanon under bombardment, with black smoke rising into the sky. What can be done is something I reflect on every single day. And I hold firmly in my heart that the time to act is now. I believe that living in a way that continually paves the way forward is the most meaningful contribution one can make, and I strive to live by being in a state of transcending this dimension and connecting with Great Being. I am deeply grateful to have in my mind that by conducting each event fully, we may influence the world. I fervently pray each day for wars to end as soon as possible, for acts of destruction to cease, and for the loss of life to come to an end. And I continually contemplate living and working toward the creation of a new and peaceful world. The life of nature constantly sends us many messages, and we are offered guidance abundantly. Herein lies hope. I will live with a mind and body capable of receiving this guidance to pave the way for the future. Thank you very much.
