Greatly impressed
At the monthly Idaki counseling applied courses in Kyoto, Mr. Idaki Shin told us about the nature of human passion and impression and I realized the importance of living a rich life full of new discoveries and having the sensitive heart to be impressed with many things. Today’s lecture had deep meanings and greatly impressed my heart. In reality since I built new spots for our activities in Kyoto and personally rented an apartment, I installed many art pieces, curtains, tapestries and furniture of my own with mind-scape drawings that created an exquisitely beautiful space like a gallery. As I experienced the great Hanshin earthquake in our office in Kobe at that time, I wanted to make my new space simple and full of my art objects. They were rather art pieces to be appreciated rather than for a practical use. However this beautiful space always made me smile naturally, cheerful and energetic, though sometimes I came back to my home in Kyoto completely exhausted. Today I brought two Komasui glassware art pieces for serving ice coffee and as I drank some an exciting mind-scape drawing started to show up, and I truly enjoyed using them. I realized the importance of enjoying daily life that enriched our life and made us vigorous. Playing a DVD of Mr. Idaki Shin was also a great joy in my daily practice and the music of the Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered concert seamlessly expressed wonderful scenes that shook my soul. This was a moment to realize the great joy of being alive. I had a great time listening to his music even when I was alone. So I wished to share this great experience with everybody on earth as I knew from many people I met that the great impression felt at the core of the heart could transform the world into a truly peaceful one even in the perpetually warring Middle Eastern countries. To enrich our internality was the key issue. As in my life a marvelous thing was continuously happening moment after moment, any problems would be solved, and I was living a truly happy life more than I had ever dreamt. I sincerely wished to create more and more opportunities for sharing this wonderful experience with people all over the world.
As I held my lecture event in Yokohama the other day , many people who have taken the Idaki counseling courses gathered there, and after the lecture they came to show me off and to wave their hands in front of the archaic historical building, and we should have looked like shining brilliantly like a ball of light in the darkness so that every person in the street watched us attentively and some of them took our photos. In Kyoto every time I came across in the street a person who had taken our courses he or she looked shining and lit by a spot light. I wished our fellow with a shining life would live a happy life and become a hope for people all over the world.
