Sensitivity

 

I heard about thirty three years ago that ancient Jomon people used to prepare for receiving their guest several days in advance as they could communicate with each other by night dreams. This coincided with my way and experience and I felt a great relief acknowledging the human ability to envision something in a dream, feel somebody in a touch of wind, identify a symbolic color and feel an aroma to start something new when listening to somebody else. Sometime a person spoke with a painful tone and was damaging one’s life by wrongly expressing something or making a mistake in choosing words. One’s expression in language determined one’s future and one would open up a marvelous future or close all positive possibilities. Therefore I always tried to express myself in language true to the internal conditions of my life that I called my deepest heart or sincere wish. To live a life true to the natural demands of life was the most important thing for us to live a healthy and human life. Because our expressions generated our atmosphere and state of life, to live a beautiful and pure life was essential for making our living circumstances beautiful. This was a great hope for our inner potentials. Each person should live a truly beautiful life to make our entire world truly beautiful and human. We should never give up or passively wait for somebody else to change our world. Each of us should seriously think about taking the initiative as one person’s expression of life could globally influence the precious nature of life.
In this respect I felt great gratitude to the Idaki Shin concerts that were designed to make us experience and acknowledge the precious nature of human life as the source for opening up one’s future by oneself, and wished to share his concert with people all over the world.
