2007/10
 
 Recently we have often seen beautiful images that started to turn autumn color.
Days of intense heat have gone far away…

 The turn of the seasons is changeable in various ways, while our hearts flutter.
 Just at that moment, there is the news that the lunar explorer “KAGUYA”
(SELENE) went into orbit successfully!

 In looking up at the brilliantly shinning moon, I cannot help playing involuntarily
“May it go well…”
In the lengthening nights of autumn, look up at the sky, try to feel the mystical sign from space.

 -Fullness and Renewal-  Shinmin Sakamura

The sun rises with a deep red glow

and sets with a deep red glow

Despite billions of repetition

because of the reason

the freshness

I join my hands in prayer

I absorb the light

for fullness of life

for renewal of spirit

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　with thanks
