Live a truthful life

Through a series of lecture by Mr. Idaki Shin I came to understand many essential things in my life. I thought that my ancestors, king Tomei and king Kotai had been together with me as if they were still alive in my body. But the truth was that they were not ordinary human beings and were capable of achieving something that only gods could do, and their souls have been protecting me from outer invading powers. However, because they died as young as at the age of 38 years or so, they did not know how to live on up to, say, over a hundred years. So if my consciousness became assimilated with their consciousness I would follow the same pattern of life and could not live a long life. 
Actually from childhood I had a strong image on my life as a skyrocket; to be short and achieve many great things very rapidly. But obviously this idea was totally against the nature of my life, as every creature was endeavoring to live on. I became ashamed of my arrogant consciousness. Mr. Idaki Shin told us that he has rejected everything that seemed to serve to protect him in exchange for tuning his consciousness to a limited field of power. What was essential to live a life true to humanity was to wipe away all frameworks. People in modern society were captured by piles of frameworks that attacked everything beyond their interpretations. This was how the actual world was perpetuated by wars, conflicts and destruction. People were made to forget their heart. Seemingly contradictorily, however, we have to acknowledge heart consciously and put less priority on the role of brain. I realized our concert activities have indeed been the short cut to regain the core of our lives; heart and mind true to human nature.
