Being Japanese
The Idaki counseling applied courses held in Kyoto made me speculate about our mission as Japanese to regain its high spirituality and open up our future that I have never thought about in depth. By chance I came across a photo of a Japanese family that was photographed before World War Ⅱand they all looked very noble, beautiful and pure. Japanese of today were not conscious that our spirituality has been taken away and have been taken advantage of by others. As Mr. Idaki Shin stressed about people’s hearts who had fought for Japan at the risk of their life and died, I felt as if my heart were torn apart as nothing was more miserable than being deprived of spirituality, having totally forgotten the presence of soul and staying unconscious of this state of life. I felt sorry for the souls of people who had lost their lives in the war and became motivated to create a truly good society. In this respect we would hold ten concerts in August and especially the one to be held in Kyoto on the 15th of August was a crucial one that, preceding this, as Mr. Idaki Shin commented today, I realize the impact of holding the Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered concerts and the Idaki Shin solo concert entitled “ My earnest heart and mission of life”. I would remain unified with Great Being and achive my mission at any rate.
