Heading for a climax

Seventeen years ago at Mt. Aso in Kumamoto I organized a concert for love and peace all over the world. Since then I have been concerned about factors of war and conflict. The 6th of August was the saddest day in Japan as it commemorated the nuclear bomb in Hiroshima. Mr. Idaki Shin delivered a message to annihilate all nuclear powers. These days I vividly recall my concert in Tyre, Lebanon. Mr. Idaki Shin said before leaving Japan for this concert that he expected to receive the power of the authentic divinity, otherwise accumulating problems in the Middle East would not be solved. In reality, almost all local spectators shed tears when I narrated my last poem, and after the show I was interviewed by a Lebanese newspaper and asked if I knew the reason. I replied that encounter with a newly manifested god should indeed make them cry. This was reported in the newspaper headline the following day. And eventually I feel close to the divinity I experienced in Tyre and I anticipate its manifestation through our series of events in August, because the world is facing many dangerous situations that should be urgently redirected towards solutions. I can clearly see what is essential and what is trivial, so I can manage my life better. Ideally speaking I wish to organize our concerts every day, to tackle urgent issues. Meanwhile my installation work of Mind-scape series at Laforet Roppongi will be very elaborate with the help of numerous volunteers and I have created many gigantic pieces while Mr. Idaki Shin will kindly play music live from time to time. So I welcome as many people as possible to come to see this exhibition as this is a very rare opportunity to organize one on such a big scale. At our concerts in August everyone can be liberated from negative influences received from past history. This is indeed the ultimate hope for the future of humankind. As each person’s consciousness constitutes factors for war so when people experience a marvelous event that awakens true human nature, they acknowledge within themselves the core of their lives and a mechanism to trigger war. Like this a new situation for peace will be cemented. So just by participating in our concerts, people can start to live their lives true to authentic human nature and open up a new history of mankind.
