Everything humans think is an illusion.
What would you do if you had to choose between band or love?
Kagami:That's the ultimate question. Do people still take the band?
Cony:I believe I was born for it. Then again, music is what I was born to do. However, I would like to have children for the sake of the earth and humanity.
Kagami:But maybe as you get older, you can get both, you know? Or maybe you'll be able to balance it well.
Yurika:Yes, I don't want to be biased. However, I am in a state of nothingness when it comes to love. I don't think about anything (laughs).
Cony:In the end, we seem to spend about two thirds of our time in the world of the spirit, carrying around a variety of agonizing things. We are doing our best to stay positive and see it as a way to grow (laughs).
Kagami:Recently, I've been reading a book by Shu Kishida, and he advocates that everything we think is an illusion. It's very interesting.
What do you mean by that?
Kagami:Animals other than humans learn to stand on their own legs and walk as soon as they are born, and they go out to get food on their own, right? Human children, however, are not capable of such things. They grow up under the influence of their parents. According to Mr. Kishida, we live in a world of illusion. Your own parents were raised by your grandparents, too. In short, are human values really correct? Is it really true?
Cony:Heh, interesting!
Kagami:There is a video on YouTube of him lecturing at Wako University for about an hour, and it is a great learning experience. Also, the book in which he talks with Juzo Itami is interesting. Anyway, he says that human beings can only live in illusion. He also says that all the history we learn at school is taught in the way that suits the needs of each country. When you think about it, you don't know what you learn in school is correct.
Cony:Maybe we should take it as our own convenience too.
Kagami:That's right. So the idea that I would be happier if I had a lover is all an illusion (laughs). It doesn't matter if you don't have a girlfriend.
Cony:Illusion..., I can use it (laughs). I guess it is important to have something you believe in in the midst of all this.
Kagami:There are good and bad ideologies, though. If it's too strong, it becomes like a religion.
Cony:But it's good for me. I mean, I think believing is salvation. I always want to pursue something, always with a sense of loneliness and lack of fulfillment.
We live with loneliness as something beautiful.
I'd like to start wrapping up this issue.
Kagami:As Conny just said, it is good to use such feelings of loneliness and agony as energy. When you are satisfied, everything stops. That's why I think it's a very positive thing that all three of us were rejected at the same time. All creators are lonely.
ELIY:I agree. We all like to spend time alone by ourselves, but I think I am finding more value in it than before.
Cony:Happiness is something that I feel more often when I create it myself, rather than when it is brought to me by others. If I were to go beyond that, perhaps it would be to have a child.
ELIY:That's what I'm looking forward to when I think about it.
Cony:But now I will live my life seeing loneliness as something beautiful!
Yurika:And even when you have a lover, you are lonely when you are lonely.
So, happiness is also an illusion.
Kagami:That's right! You've got it all together. I wonder what happiness is.
Yurika:I am happy just to be alive.
Cony:I tend to get sick easily, but I am happy just to not have a sick spot.
Kagami:I feel like I'm talking to you like a grandparent (laughs). (Laughs) But that's the truth, isn't it? What are you talking about luxury? I said, "I'm fine. You're doing fine, so that's all that matters.
ELIY:We are rather lucky to have something we want to do our best for.
Kagami:It's wonderful to have an environment where you can devote yourself to something you want to do. It may seem obvious, but it is not. TAWINGS is a good band that makes you realize that. But that may be an illusion, too (laughs).
Cony:It all gets put away with that....
