Today at the Idaki Kyoto Office, I had the opportunity to experience Master Idaki Shin's "Ontology" and "Idaki Applied Course." Master Idaki Shin's lectures are a place where our lives commune with the life of Master Idaki Shin, who receives everything in his body and is united with all lives. It is an irreplaceable experience in which ways of living and thinking that place a burden on our own lives come clearly to the surface, leading toward liberation.
Today as well, many changes occurred. My body's responses continued to change, and tears continued to flow within my life. I had a bodily sensation that the sorrow, shadows, and darkness of a history that was not mine alone were dissolving. Whenever someone said something to me, tears would well up and I would begin to sob. Holding back my tears, feeling the depths of my life, I listened to Master Idaki Shin's talk.
Finally, when he spoke about Koguryo again today, I clearly understood that my life is one life with the soul of Koguryo. To live while denying this would only bring suffering. I had the bodily sensation that my habitual tendency constantly to suppress myself and hold myself down with the thought that I was at fault was embraced by light and dissolving away.
How one lives is connected with the state of the body. Through the body's responses, I am shown the ways of living that place a burden on life. And we can regain the ability to live just as life itself is working within us. I felt that the time had come when we could express our innate qualities just as they are, and through my tears, suffering and sorrow were washed away.
Thank you very much for this irreplaceable experience.
Tomorrow, Master Idaki Shin will give a concert at ROHM Theatre Kyoto. At the concert, our lives commune with those of many people, and together we experience the liberation of life. There is no other space or place filled with such energy. I think about how I can convey more and more my heartfelt wish for all to come and place themselves in this space.
Thank you very much for today as well.
