Lycoris radiata
A lycoris radiate flower was seen in my garden at home and it was brilliantly shining under an autumn sunbeam and moved my heart. I raised a voice of cheers. As I carefully got closer to it, its transparent beauty seemed to have carried what I called a wind of Koguryo in autumn that made me acknowledge all at once that death was not an end, a human soul was eternal, and that numerous souls of people were collaborating together with us to create a glorious future. I recalled that when I came to know that the founder of Koguryo, king Tomei had named its first castle in Mt. Gojo a holy tree that was stretching endlessly towards Heaven, I felt that time had stopped and I shouted “Idaki” as king Tomei’s vision had the same meaning as what I had started in my life. Both of us envisioned the same ideal life and while I went all the way to Africa to open up a future for humankind, king Tomei had built a new dynasty for everybody to live a truly happy and vigorous life. The red flower in my garden told me this. I would like to thank someone greatly for being provided with a special moment to create a new country that should remain prosperous for eternity.
