Time is alive
I have been speculating on the reason why I was alive and whatever I would do. I questioned if I was about to do a right thing in light of this. I felt truly and vividly alive when I was engaging myself for realizing a global peace. In face of the North Eastern Japan disaster, I envisioned a light vision of peace. Sixteen years ago, I was hit by the Great Hanshin earthquake and realized that we could live on without a house and office and we could become happy if only we would support and help each other. At the Koma gallery Café that I had built under the Yasaka tower in Kyoto, I held monthly gatherings entitled a night of poem for life. While I wished to become a poet since childhood, I extremely enjoyed the gathering that was participated in by my intimate fellows with whom I shared the same heart. Moreover everybody was extremely happy with exquisite Andromeda coffee and special sweets handmade and served by Mr. Idaki Shin. This was a supreme moment that made us realize the source of energy arising from the bottom of our heart so that we could live on whatever might happen in our life while we were living in Japan that was perpetuated with natural disasters. Likewise people all over the world would get together, share their heart, acknowledge the meaning of human life and realize joy to be alive. This was a light-vision of a truly peaceful world. Each person was the precious being that would create a global peace. Now I was fully refreshed and would move ahead to make a new movement. While I had started to hold the Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered concert wishing to share my marvelous experiences with people all over the world, this month I was provided with the special opportunity guided by Great Being to hold this at various places in Japan that had deep historic connections with my ancestors. I prayed for the glorious future of Japan before the coming concerts. I would remain truthful to the truth and do my very best to lead our concerts to a great success. I hoped that many people would come to participate in my concerts and realize the moment of encounter with one’s true self. I recalled that thirty one years ago I was told to die within two months and my life was saved only when I realized this. My true life had started when I became awakened to the truth. This would be helpful to everybody on earth and was also the path for realizing an authentic peace all over the world. Therefore my concert was identical to my life. Though I narrated poems of souls in Japanese, foreign spectators who did not understand Japanese were also greatly moved on hearing my narration. This was a great hope to live on. As I said on many occasions, a Lebanese newspaper wrote about this as its headline news. I also vividly recalled in my heart the beautifully shining eyes of a young Bulgarian boy who came to greet me after the show. I envisioned a light of great hope; as long as these beautiful eyes were shining on earth the future of humankind would be glorious and peaceful. Everybody who was present at that moment with me acknowledged that his eyes expressed the precious encounter with the truth. In order for us to live on, I was certain that each of us should dedicate ourselves by expressing the truth for opening up a good society that would never fade out his beautifully shining eyes.
