Winds blowing around Yasaka
Though I decided to go straight back to Tokyo today, in reality I went around several spots and dropped in at the Koma gallery Cafe at Yasaka again in the evening as originally I had planned to stay there. I sat at its inner garden and looked up the Yasaka tower. Trees were waving to winds and started talking to me about their joy to see me again. Other trees and plants also looked very happy. That made me shed tears. I felt I should have followed my original plan and filmed my video lecture program here. Anyway my final decision to have come back here before returning to Tokyo was right. There was something important at Yasaka that I should not have missed. Around the Koma calligraphy work, I sensed that a wind of eternity was blowing and I envisioned the eternal spirituality in the Yasaka tower. I had a great time drinking a special ice coffee in my beautiful Komasui art piece surrounded by trees and flowers that talked to me with great joy. What was more a soft cream with red sweet beans made by Mr. Idaki Shin was more delicious than anything I had had in the past. It made me forget an elapse of time and filled me with exquisite energy. I felt I was reborn. Then I left Yasaka and drove back to Tokyo with joy in heart all the way.
Winds
As if there were many fellows,
Winds were talking to me.
They said they were more than pleased to see me again.
I rejoiced at our meeting and
Winds joyfully responded to me with gentle blows.
I felt I had come to see my dearest family member.
Who shared the same heart for divine beings.
They were unified with winds
To tell me their joy to have encountered me.
I was more than happy to see how deeply they were impressed and happy.
