My homeland

Finally tomorrow at our new office, Tohoku center, I would install the Koma sign board that was drawn with calligraphy and hand carved by Mr. Idaki Shin. It seemed to make us encounter Great Being. As I watched it I felt that my life became purified before the truth. I was greatly moved to see the ongoing great transformation of human history and an extreme joy was born within my heart. To build a sign board signified the manifestation of our spirituality. I was glad as my name, Koma, has sometimes been interpreted in a negative way. However the time of truth has come while I have endeavored to live a life true to the truth. Under any circumstances I was determined that I would remain true to the truth. After having created the Koma sign board, we had a talk around Mr. Idaki Shin and he reminded me of my homeland, Koguryo’s historic site. When I was there I became extremely happy whatever I was doing and a special pleasant breeze always accompanied me that I felt as a wind of eternity. I realized Great Being. He said that I was indeed very fortunate to have a wonderful homeland while he did not feel so happy as I was in Wandu castle city or in Mt. Gojo, when he went back to his homeland. He made me acknowledge the meaning of my own homeland. The new Koma sign board built in Tohoku was now connected to my homeland in the mainland. The latitude was in reality the same forty degrees north, so basically the climate was quite similar. Also in the bedroom of my apartment, both in Morioka and Kyoto, I installed a photo frame that I called my homeland as I wished to be always surrounded by the atmosphere of my homeland. As a sign board manifested a spirituality, Koma sign board made me realize the depth of human history and showed me a future. I realized that this was a life pole. I was filled with gratitude as I watched the Koma sign board and listened to the story by Mr. Idaki Shin about a homeland.
