IMAGE: It is commonly said that some people stand at the crossroads in their lives, but that is not accurate. In truth, everyone is always standing at a fork in the path in their life. Should they go this way or that way? They have to choose one way or the other. They lose the way.

IMAGE: Everyone seems to think that life is cumulative. On the contrary, I think it should be unloaded. The more wealth and knowledge one accumulates, the more freedom one loses. If you stick to the accumulation of the past, you will be buried in the sediment before you know it and you will not be able to move. To challenge life and truly live, you must be reborn moment by moment and open your destiny. To do so, you must have nothing and be unconditional in mind and body. The more you throw away, the thicker and purer your life becomes.

IMAGE: For me, art is life itself. I would like to emphasize that art is the way of life that lives the most intensely as a human being, unconditionally exuding life and exploding. "Art is (an) explosion"...but what I call (an) "explosion"...doesn't make a sound. Things don't fly away. Open your whole body and soul to the universe unconditionally. That's the "explosion". Originally, life should continue to explode moment by moment, gratuitously and aimlessly. It is the true way of life.

ぼくが芸術というのは生きることそのものである。人間として最も強烈に生きる者、無条件に生命をつき出し爆発する、その生き方こそが芸術なのだということを強調したい。“芸術は爆発だ”……が、私の言う「爆発」は……音もしない。物も飛び散らない。全身全霊が宇宙に向かって無条件にパーッとひらくこと。それが「爆発」だ。人生は本来、瞬間瞬間に、無償、無目的に爆発しつづけるべきだ。いのちのほんとうの在り方だ。 – 岡本太郎 (1911 – 1996): 『自分の中に毒を持て』 (slowrabbitによるPixabayからの画像) (Google Translateのエンジンを使用した、Sound of Textによるテキスト読み上げ) More »

IMAGE: Tell me not, in mournful numbers, / "Life is but an empty dream!" // For the soul is dead that slumbers, / And things are not what they seem. // Life is real! Life is earnest! / And the grave is not its goal; // "Dust thou art, to dust returnest," / Was not spoken of the soul. //

悲しげな詩で、私に告げるな、/「人生はただ虚しい夢!」などと、//目覚めていない魂は死んでいるのだから、/物事は見えるとおりではないのだから。//人生は本物! 人生は本気!/死が人生のゴールではない;//「汝塵なれば、塵に帰るべし」とは、/(肉体のことであって)魂を述べたものではなかった。// – ヘンリー・W・ロングフェロー (1807 – 82): 『人生の詩篇(青年の心が詩人に言ったこと)』 (Gerd AltmannによるPixabayからの画像) (Google Translateのエンジンを使用した、Sound of Textによるテキスト読み上げ) More »
