Lebanese cedar

As I went back to my home in Tokyo a photo panel of Lebanese cedars photographed by Mr. Idaki Shin attracted my eyes and a fresh wind blew through the space. While in Lebanon wars and conflicts have been perpetuated and people were living in an extremely difficult situation, Lebanese people always looked very active. I never forgot a very refreshing atmosphere I enjoyed when I visited Lebanon for the first time. The same fresh atmosphere was still vivid as I recalled when I stood among Lebanese cedar trees. Last night when I was cleaning my home in Morioka I tried to wipe off a leaf of a tree and that was in reality one within a photo frame of a historic site of Koguryo. It looked very real and made me smile. As I passed by another photo frame of Lebanese cedar a fresh air came and I turned around to see the photo that looked purified by a sacred water that made my life clean and purified as well as if I were surrounded by Lebanese cedar trees. In Lebanon I could encounter the soul of my father who passed away so Lebanon always made my life renewed. I embraced within my heart people who welcomed me as their family member. As they were living under extremely difficult circumstances to my gratitude we have been transmitting to Lebanon by live Internet all the Idaki Shin concerts held in Japan. I felt that many Lebanese were waiting for a coming transmission from Mitaka. Mother Earth and the space of the world were unified under Great Being so it was the time to drastically change our world and concentrate ourselves on creating a time for realizing this.
