Raze Rey
I had the chance to visit for the first time our newly opened Café in Teheran, Raze Rey that was situated in a shopping mall. As I went to the third floor, I could meet again with what I had named ambassadors of peace, my glassware art works. They were exhibited to the public in the lobby of the Idaki Shin concert held in Japan one day before their departure to Teheran. On that occasion, I had wished that they would never return to Japan and stay in Iran forever to carry out the precious mission of connecting the hearts of people so I was very impressed to see them again in Teheran. Some were installed at the entrance and others were displayed in a showcase surrounded by the warmth of woods. An Idaki Shin stereo sound system was playing the music from our Persepolis concert and as I took a seat, a big plasma screen was screening its video. I was extremely happy and satisfied with everything. When I had visited the space last year, it was void, and though I felt a great hope for the success of this shop, I could hardly imagine the opening of such a beautiful space as this. The tables were all hand crafted of woods and true to an inspiration I had had when I had visited the Hermitage museum in St. Petersburg. Because I could not find in furniture shops in Teheran anything similar to my image of a table, I asked an architect who accompanied me to shops in Teheran specially to design and hand craft tables based on my idea. Interestingly there was a small display space at the center of each table in order to exhibit my art pieces. As I took a seat and looked at my art piece displayed inside the show case through a glass, it was shining brilliantly and I sensed an aroma of dream coming either from ancient times or from an unknown future to give me a clear perspective of our future life. It was an exciting moment in my life. The Andromeda Ethiopia Limu coffee served there was delicious and it tasted like a pure stream of water generating an exquisite aroma. I was very happy. The video of historic sites of Iran filmed by Mr. Idaki Shin manifested an authentic atmosphere of great ancient history and high spirituality of people corresponding to each location. The message I had received in Iran was revived, “ As long as our foundation was firm and solid we would never perish”. Ray signified beauty and its calligraphy made by Mr. Idaki Shin was placed at the entrance gate and was seen from everywhere inside the shop. Raze signified secret and together with Ray, the name of the shop expressed the true beauty originating from love that one day I heard from Mr. Idaki Shin. I was motivated to share the happiness to spend a moment of life in this beautiful space with many people. And indeed more and more customers came towards evening. I felt a special aroma of beauty, Rey. I was grateful to be able to have opened this wonderful Café in Teheran.
In Teheran
I landed in the desert and envisioned
Light coming from the world three stages before the Big Bang.
The sadness of the land was nursed
Numerous bloodsheddings were transformed to love and
They addressed me expressing gratitude to have provided
Numerous opportunities to experience true love.
In return I shed tears of joy.
As I landed in Teheran,
Numerous souls greatly welcomed us and held each other acknowledging
Great joy to be able to see each other again.
They have been waiting for us and were ready to collaborate to realize
The Legends of the World concert.
Wherever one was, souls full of love knew
The joy of living a happy life unified all together at the core of life.
We were filled with hope for the future.
The land has absorbed energy of love and light from the music played by Mr. Idaki Shin.
Sadness was transformed to love and renewed itself.
The truth shall be fulfilled,
With great hope in a newly opened world.
Yellow lovely flowers were in full bloom and were waving to winds.
They were also welcoming our arrival with joy.
The time has come to change the earth full of sadness to that of love.
Every life shall shine brilliantly as they were treasures of the earth.
Let’s welcome the great moment
When human beings will start living a shining life true to human nature
In a newly manifested world.
Unified with the world three stages before the Big Bang
The world of nothingness,
Beautiful light of life shall prevail.
The entire space will transform itself to a new one
That will revive every creature.
The center of life is unified with the world three stages before the Big Bang.
Thank you very much.
