Building a new nation

It was spring but today was very cold. I held a salon concert and screening event entitled A Night for Building a New Nation, at a western style historic house in Yokohama with a beautiful view of the port. I used to come here in my teens motivated to find an answer to essential questions about my life and the truth. I walked around this area as there were pleasant sea breezes and a magnificent view. I entrusted my hope to an unknown future. Now I was extremely grateful as I was provided with the truth about my life and nature and was actually paving a way to realize a global peace. When I visited the ruin of Heijou city I received a message that in ancient times people had built a new dynasty in a land illuminated with heavenly light and now light within each people’s internality would receive light coming from far beyond Heaven and create a new nation. I realized that the time had come when this message would come true. Here, a new nation signified a new world that allowed everybody to live on. When a person’s internality was shining, one’s surrounding circumstances would be filled with brilliant light, as light was the field for the core of human life, not to mention that Mr. Idaki Shin has been always expressing this in his concerts. The more people experienced the true meaning of love through his concert, the more we contributed to building a good world. Today also his piano improvisational music filled me with extreme happiness liberated from any concerns, preoccupations and burdens in my mind, brain and body. I acknowledged that one should create something out of nothing. Therefore his concert was a precious opportunity for realizing a path for building a new nation. I was grateful as we could do so by having a truly wonderful time by listening to his music and having handmade sweets and special coffee.

As I climbed up to a hill overlooking the port in my teens
I entrusted a marvelous future of my life beyond this sea.
However I felt the sadness of transience in human life
at the sight of a foreigner’s graveyard.
The idea of my disappearing one day from this world
Filled me with inexplicit vacancy.
I wished to believe that there should be a meaning in my life
As I was born and alive now.
I desperately searched for an answer day after day.
I yearned for a wonderful world far beyond the sea.
Now a truly glorious world was manifested here and now.
Love, the truth, eternity,
Everything I wished for was provided.
Human lives separated through past history were recovered
and our grievances were nursed.
I was dedicating myself completely to creating a new world so that
Everybody on earth would live a happy life filled with love.
The light of the port looked like that of hope.
One day every port all over the world would shine brilliantly like this.
People would be able to move freely around any country
Filled with the light of hope.
We would realize the true meaning of their lives and their eternal nature.
No one would repeat a sad history as we were building a new world.
People all over the world should shine brilliantly.
It was time to build an authentic human world.
