Axis of history

Though Tokyo was hit by a big typhoon on the same day, I was grateful that we could successfully hold the Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered concert at Shinjuku and many people from various part of Japan came to attend the concert. I prayed for their safe return home. The sound of the pipe-organ played by Mr. Idaki Shin at the beginning was magnificent and I realized that we were at the crossroad of human history. Then he played the Japanese traditional drums expressing the birth of a Heavenly king, the high time of the ancient kingdom and its decline, a sad history of separations and the resurrection of original love. I was greatly encouraged to move forwards by rapid movements and the four dimensional sensitivities of ancient Koguryo’s troops and king Kotai. Together with his music and video projections the event turned one page after another the great romanticism in human history,: the heart of a princess with a harmonica, the wishes of king Tomei’s mother with a Shamisen, king Jakou’s sadness, his soul and heart for an unknown future with a Koma flute. As he played the music I felt that the great divine being was unified with us and every soul was orchestrating his sound. Souls were revived and we could start living a new life with a column of eternity at the center of our heart. Human history was indeed at the turning point and I was determined to manifest my true nature and shine brilliantly from the internality of my life to open up a peaceful world. Once again I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for having successfully held today’s historic concert.
