An eternal love born in Mt. Gojo
The last part of my story entitled “A song of a heavenly angel in her sorrow” was about an ancient princess whose romance was not fulfilled. I had once created a poem entitled “A romance at royal court” for the Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered concert and there a princess had realized the eternal nature of love born in Mt. Gojo. Today I made a mind-scape drawing on shortbread biscuit hand baked by Mr.Idaki Shin that I named Mt. Gojo sable. In the past I had experienced many incidents that prevented me from visiting Mt. Gojo; I had to cancel my trip several days before or even on the day of departure. Some time ago in Café Akira at Roppongi, Tokyo I had handmade special sweets wishing to express my yearning for going back to my homeland. I named each sweet after a historic site of Koguryo , shared it with my fellows, and talked about Koguryo’s ancient cities as if we were visiting there all together as I had originally scheduled. Like this I had long waited for an opportunity to go there in the future. Mt. Gojo shortbread biscuit was one of these special sweets. As I worked on them too hard I had damaged my arms, so Mr. Idaki Shin came to handmake them in my place. The sweets I had handmade were full of Koguryo’s atmosphere, while those by Mr. Idaki Shin were cosmic. As I ate one I realized the vast universe and the eternal nature of souls in a limitless world. When I picked up today’s sable, I acknowledged an eternal world, and naturally I said that love born in Mt. Gojo was eternal. The sadness of the ancient princess was nursed and hearts of numerous people’s souls were responded to as they realized the eternal nature of souls that would brilliantly shine. Everyone’s soul was indeed here with us. I was extremely happy and joyfully I made mind-scape drawings on sweets. The world of souls has always greatly encouraged me and manifested the true human life. I was greatly impressed to see how human beings could live an enormously creative and romantic life as I did in my own life. No fantastic story could be more romantic. I wished to share the same wonderful way of life with people all over the world and create a truly human era. After the Idaki Shin concert in any country in the world, people could realize the sensation that allowed everybody mutually to understand and smile at each other trying to express the joy and great impressions one had experienced in the concert, indifference to nationalities and languages. Gentle heart and love were at the core of everybody’s life and shed tears of joy and gratitude at being born as a member of humankind and the unity of heart. The heart of people in the past was also rewarded and glorified. Everything made me realize the extreme joy of being alive. I would manifest the true nature of my life for the sake of opening up a new world for people in the future. I would like to express my greatest gratitude to everything from the bottom of my heart.
