When a mirror is placed in water and the sunlight is reflected, rainbow-colored light is generated like a prism.

I wanted to create a place to dance to understand myself using the rainbow as Yorishiro, just as the primitive people danced around the fire.

 

Yorishiro (憑代) is an object that the spirit of the truth relies on.

Visionz Rainbow Hut

 

I participated in a festival called Visionz, which was launched by a friend I met in Goa, India.

It was held every January from 2000 to 2002 at a ranch about an hour drive from Takaka on the South Island of New Zealand to Fairwell Spit.

It was an event to spread permaculture, including a trans zone, a live zone, and a healing zone, and the rainbow hut was used as a chill-out zone.

Rainbow Hut is a place to dance.

Primitive men were dancing around the fire at night.

We will dance under the rainbow during midday.

 

In the rainbow hut, a rainbow functions as a bonfire.

When people think of a rainbow, one tend to think of the words hope and dream, but I don't want to produce that kind of image.

I would like to see the waving color as it is.

Converting a rainbow into some image, thought, or symbol is to create the center of self (= thought), and it is nothing but to separate oneself from the world.

I believe that this separation is the beginning of a fundamental mistake and the root of all evil.

It is so natural that the world is not separated from oneself and at the same time it is very difficult to understand.

Even if it can be understood logically, it is miraculous to actually understand it.

But what I want to understand is this miracle, this is why I make rainbowhuts while feeling the contradiction.

I think it is possible to understand that I am the world itself through dancing.

I think we can understand that “the observer is the observed”.

But if dancing is the method to understand, the result is still a projection of thought.

You fall into the usual brain trap; doing something for something else.

We remain trapped in the prison of our own thoughts.

Therefore, I think it is wrong to make a rainbowhut with a purpose.

This is the reason why I feel a contradiction.

I think "I" is a collection of data separated from the world.

And this “I” is trying to influence and improve this society.

We made this conflicted society.

Therefore, I think that what I should do is not to try to change or affect society, but to understand myself.

 

My body is not separated from the world.

Dancing has no purpose and I feel free when I'm just dancing.

I would like to create a place where we can dance.
