Resonance between different dimensions, this is one of the most basic plinciple of life.
In the nature, eagles,plants, bacteria live in different dimensions and resonating together.
Dead creatures are rotten in the earth, bacteria eats them, plants get nutrition from them and generate ogygen gas through sun shine energy, and so on.
The dgrees of resonance are different, some one is directly, another one is very far resonance.
But anyway every life is resonating in different dimansion.
We can learn various resonance pattern from nature.
When we get this thechnique, theater become so novel world.
This week students reseach the different dimansinal resonance in various channels.
One subbody open audio channel, and make various body sounds, the other subbody resonate with it in different distance.
Sometimes similar resonance which body movement and sound sychronize.
Sometimes body movement takes distance from audio stream, and keep its own rhythm.
When we can control these resonance pattern in varius distance,each subbody can be in diffferent dimansion in a space.
Slowly students learn various resonance pattern, then subbody cobody theater becomes so rich taste which we have never seen before.
We wiil continue to investigate in this.
There are hidden novel posibilities infinitely.

Sinking into the drakness of body
15 September, 2009
The demon of dualism
The controlling power of dualism is extremely deep.
How deep our thinking is controlled by dualism!
Today, I realized that my resonance method was bound by dualism for long years.
The awareness was so bitter.
There are neither subject, nor object in the resonance.
The resonance occurs from both sides naturally.
This is the first principle of resonance which I have found already.
But, in my method of resonance was not followed the principle of resonance.
On the contrary, I used to begin from a simple mirror copy (line symmetry) or disc copy (point symmetry).
It was a physical practice method which I found over ten years ago, but still I follow it.
Because I thought that it must be simpler and easier for students.
Then slowly I used to guide students from the simple physical resonance to complex multi-dimensional resonance.
But, some students suggested me some resistant feeling.
I had felt a subtle the same feeling against my method, but I could not notice what was problem.
On the contrary, I thought the reason why some students resist it must be depend on the too much individual education, and they feel difficult to follow the others.
I used to guide them to die down their egos deeper.
But it was me who was bound by preconceived idea deeply.
The ease or simple is the biggest demon of dualism.
To accept the complexity of multi-dimensional resonance is too complex, then as a simplifying method, the dualism was used as a convenient way of daily thinking.
The division of easy/complex was also a dualism bind as same as the dualistic judgment as good/bad, right/wrong, high/ low, beautiful/ugly, and so on.
I must know well about it, but still I was bound by the way of simplification of dualism.
Simplification is the demon of dualism.
We must not start from simplification for learning resonance.
We don’t need to decide the role of leader and follower for learning resonance.
We can just start from real resonance which has no leader, no follower.
We stand for facing each other, and the resonance start at a cell of both bodies.
We have six trillions of cells in our body. One cell of twelve trillions of cell of two bodies can initiate a subtle movement, the other cells resonate it beyond the difference of two bodies. We don’t know what will happen at next moment, we just accept the process of resonance totally.
To accept everything is a principle of resonance, too.
I must find it before in my written method, but the practice method could not accept it yet.
I could not listen in the subtle signal of body and life enough.
I realized that the depth of the darkness of body. There are so deep binds of dualism and archetype.
The release from the binds of dualism and archetypes does not proceed quickly.
It takes time for the awareness sinking into the body.
This must be the real speed of changing.
There may be no other way except of acceptance of this slow speed of change.
I must re-organize the resonance method from the foundamemtal.

The Life 1
What is life?
Finally the day has come to be able to struggle to the deepest problem for me.
All of my previous steps existed for solving this question.
How is it possible to contact with the principle of life?
I tried to listen to the life in the darkness of body at Himalaya for long years.
At the first awareness about life which I got is swaying.
Life is always swaying in the world.
This is the first characteristic of life which I found.
I tried to upstream the history of life throuhg subbody meditation.
Characteristic of subbody meditation is to open all channels. Especially body channel and movement channel. Because life is always moving, without movement sensation, we tend to be bound by only thinking channel. Thinking channel is bound by dualism so deeply. We need to release ourselves from all of dualistic judgment, because it disturbs us to be life. Life has no judgment. We need to enter life world without any words, but with opening full of body and movement sensations.
When we enter the darkness of body without thinking, we meet the life sway.
When we upstream the history of life which has four billion years history, we reach the moment of the birth of life on the earth.
What happened at the moment of the birth of origin life?
We need to learn The String theory for investigating in this question. According to String theory, everything in the universe is made of the change of resonance pattern of String. String is minimum size in the universe as Prank length; 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000m.
Each string is resonating in the Prank size space. Surprisingly, the String theory said there are eleven dimensions in the Universe. Only three dimensions of space and one time dimension are spreading after big ban, but the other seven dimensions are still curled in the minimum space of Prank length. Strings are vibrating in the eleven dimensions including tiny sized seven dimensions. There are infinite resonance patterns of strings. Each resonance pattern becomes a specific material or energy.
For example the simplest resonance pattern makes the Gravity. Another resonance pattern becomes Electro-magnetic power, and so on. There are four powers in the Universe, Gravity, Electro-magnetic power, Strong power, and weak power, all of them are made of the change of resonance pattern of String. Also all kinds of materials are made of String resonance.
One day a big question occurred in the meditation, “How about life?”
Life is neither physical thing nor energy. Life is another thing which is essentially different from them. The essence of life must be hidden in the tiny hidden dimension which nobody knows yet.
I can re-understand through String theory, the swaying of life which I found before is the resonance.
I renewed the first finding about life as following;
The first essential characteristic of life is the resonance.
If also life is made of the change of resonance pattern of String, what happened at the moment of the birth of the Origin life?
Try to imagine the moment with becoming the Origin life. It must be the completely dead world around the origin life. A novel resonance pattern of String had begun in the dead world. Strings started a specific resonance pattern. It was the origin of life. The resonance pattern had two specific characteristics.
The second characteristic which only life has is that life can maintain the special resonance patterns of strings as it is.
The third characteristic is that life can renew the resonance pattern including new resonance patterns which life invents with new materials or energies.
It may seem a contradiction between the second and the third one. But life does not belong to the dualistic logic world. Dualism is mere conbinient simplification for daily life.Life belongs in the non-dual and multi dimansional resonance world. The integration of these paradoxical characteristics is the essence of life.
I noticed that the swaying which was my first finding about life was essentially the resonance of life.
At the early age, life was able to resonate with a few patterns of materials and energy, Gravity, subtle electricity, water, amino acid, protein, sodium, calcium, and so on. But around the origin life there were so many things which life could not find proper resonance pattern in the dead environment. Life had to invent new resonance pattern with new things in every moment desperately. Because if life could not find proper resonance pattern with them, it meant immediately death. Life was resonating with dead from the first moment to present time at every moment. Life’s history is the history of infinite inventions. Also life continued resonance with dead from the beginning to now.
So, then we can find that the fourth characteristic of life is the resonance with dead. The third characteristic is infinite invention of novel resonance pattern with everything.
When life found a new resonance pattern with something, life could keep memory of it in the cell as qualia. Qualia is not physical as same as life. It must be subtle resonance pettern of String in hidden tiny dimensions. Only life can feel and use qualia. This is the essential difference between qualia and information. Machine as computer can use the information, but not qualia.
We can find that the ffifth essential characteristic of life is qualia.
Exactly saying, life and qualia is not different thing. Life and qualia are born at the same moment, and they are oneness. All kind of life memories are qualia. Some of important qualia are imprinted in our genome. The others are kept at our cells as temporary memories. The whole process between temporary memory, long term memory, and DNA memory is not solved yet. It will take long time, because essential secret must be hidden at the tiny seven dimensions where the strings are resonating.
These are the essential characteristics of life which I could find through subbody meditation for these ten years at Himalaya.
When we investigate in the butoh of life, these perspectives about life guide us. This is the reason why we need to resonate with other world, because life is resonating with them. Also it is the reason why we need to stop daily rough thinking, because life is resonating though so subtle qualia with the other world including dead world.
Let’s look back the essential characteristics of life.
Resonance
Maintenance self resonance pattern with integrating new resonance pattern
Infinite invention of novel resonance pattern
Resonance between life and death
Qualia
When we become life, we have to follow these essentials, as ash walk, as nest walk, as wearing other world, and with subtle qualia. The subbody butoh method is what just follows the principles of life.

The Butoh 11
The face of forest
A student of Hijikata asked him, "Why can you make so complex faces as your solo piece?"
He told about so many elements of his choreograph, and said
"It is impossible to become such a face of the forest without multiple resonance among these complex conditions.
We need to assosiate all of them on your face at the same time."
Now we can read his last butoh score which he left only one as "a butoh score for solo of Queit house( See chapter 8)"
It is composed by so complex multi dimensional resonance among various elements.
He called it "The face of forest", but maybe it is hard to imagine the qualia of real forest which he meant for young people of present age, because almost of them have never seen the real forest, because the primeval (=virgin) forests had distroyed completely in agricultural and industrial history.
In the primeval forest, there are so rich ecological system, multiple kinds of creature and materials resonate together deeply. It is the real natural condition of life which resonate with everything in multiple dimansion.
As the slideshow above shows, the old tree in the primeval forest is already a world itself. So many kinds of life and death resonate on the tree. .Some of them survive for ten thousands years, they have experienced every kind of changes, happenings, dramas between life and death.
The face of forest which Hijikata meant is to become a face as these old trees.
He could complete the method how to become it.
We can see it in his Butoh score.
I translated part of it in the chapter 8. Though it is only the first paragraph of them, but you can see that it has so many complex elements which resonate together in multiple dimensions.
When you see his butoh by video at the first time, you may not recognaize what is happening. It looks only various parts of body swaying in different directions. Also for me I could see only it during over ten years.
But during I continued to watch it carefully, and repeated to read his butoh scores deeper and deeper at the same time, slowly it comes out transparently that the essense of his butoh is multiple resonance among all kinds of physical conditions and invisible qualia.

Wearing the rear world
We meditated with audience for a while before starting the last weekend theater.
Because an essensial change is happening on student's body in the second semester, but it is too subtle to notice by busy daily body and camera.
Only at the real moment we could share it through life resonance, it was so tasty.
Students became a quiet body through the breath of life.
And started to carry the quiet body as an ash walk.
The biggest change was what students became to listen to the rear world.
They wore the rear world, and carryed it.
They could listen to so many qualia of the rear world.
Exactly saying, it is not only a world.
Life is resonating with so many another world; dead world, hidden memory, forgotten dreams, life memories when we were another creature, underground world, heaven world where so many archetypes are floating, uiverse, and so on.
We can wear and carry all of the rear world.
When students started walking with them, they could control all of the space with unknown indications.
From the rear world so many qualia visited hteir body. They also wore them on the various parts of body, and hidden skins as subbodies.
Subbodies wanted to come out, but students controled them at the minimum size.
This is the Nest body. They carryed nest body quietly.
They could become wear so many layers of qualia.
This was the biggest change, though it was so subtle that daily eyes could not catch it. Also it is unable to catch by camera.
Everyhting become more subtle and quiet littele by little.
I recognized that it took time for half year for changing of body and mind.
This is the reason why I had to close the short course.
Slowly slowly we are entering a novel realm together toward the butoh of life.

The Breath of Life
According to the Craniosacral method, our bodies breathe in three kinds of rhythm, except of the lung breathing rhythm.
They call it "Breath of life" or "Primary respiration rhythm".
When I didn't know this method I have found a similar rhythm for calming daily body and transforming "Quiet body".
Quiet body is for me the first one of ten bodies. I found that I need to be quiet body which is released from all kinds of busy rhythms of daily body and mind.
At first I tried to traditional breathing in various culture, Buddism, Yoga, Tao (Taichi), and so on.
But for me the most comfortable rhythm was longer than the rhythm of lung breathing. I didn't know why, but anyway it worked for me to transform Quiet body, then I did it for long years without naming.
Recently I had a chance to learn Craniosacral method from a student, Pia.
She is a long experienced practitionor of Craniosacral method and Yoga.
I found that their concept of "The primary respiration" or "Breath of life" ex is the same rhythm which I found as the best rhythm for Quiet body.
Also the basic way of thinking about life and body, the Craniosacral method and Subbody method have so many similar thoughts. I will investigate deeper about this.
The breath of life
1. Long tide
The first one is long tide breathing which they call the primary respiratory mechanism. It has 45-50 seconds rhythm. It is the breath of life different from the lung breathing.
This rhythm is so similar of my teacher of life; Nenkin (Slime mold). Its body fluid changes the direction of stream opposite direction in their body in each 40-60 seconds.
Then they can recognize all constellation of qualia between self and world. (See video above. Notice: The speed is amplified.)
We can be with our life in this long tide rhythm.
2. Mid tide
The second rhythm is mid tide which has 12 second rhythm. It is called as potency tide or fluid tide, too. It is also different from lung breathing. It develope from life breathing to the body fluid.. The body spread toward upper and wide direction for arround 12 seconds and fade down and body becomes longer for 12 seconds.
3. Cranial rhythmic Impulse
Thr third one is CRI (Cranial Rhythmic Impulse) which is for 3 to 10 seconds rhythm. CRI is also the developement of the breath of life through the craniosacral motion to the body movement. In the swaying meditation you may find it as the most comfortable rhythm of sway.
I was seraching a method to calm down body and mind deeper for these years, because I planed to practice of possessed body and transparent resonance body. It requires us to controll body and mind more deeply to become possessed body, because if not we meet a danger to be possessed by strong unknown emotional storm from unkown dimension of qualia.
I notced that to learn the breath of life which has these three kinds of rhythm will help us to calm down and to control us to be ourselves firmly, even any kinds of qualia visit us.
Especially to remember the long tide and mid tide is usefull, when we are out of control from quiet condition.
To be with your life all the time
When you got the Breath of life, you can enter the novel realm to learn the transforming method of possessed body and transparent resonance body.
Toward the Butoh of life
Also this is useful for investigating in what is "the Butoh of life" which Hijikata longed for in his later years and could not completed, because of his death.
In front of you, an unknown virgin flontier in where nobody has stepped is waiting for you.

Kugutsu body
Kugutsu is a thing which has the shape of human-like as you can see on the slideshow above.
Kugutsu is merely a dead thing, but it mediates beween this living world and another world ,like as the dead world thorugh various qualia.
It is moved by another strength from another world through resonance.
It is similar with puppet or marionette whic is manipulated by manipulator. off course there are many traditional culture of manipulated puppet theater in Japan. It called Bunraku or Ningyou Joruri. The puppet is called Kugutsu or Deku, but the essence of Kugutsu is a medium beween this living world and another wolrd.
It is so difficult to explain it by English. I can just tell some essences of Kugutsu body.
1. Become a Quiet body through the breath of life.
2. Resonate with another invisible world behind the Kugutsu
3. Become a medium between this world and another world
This is all what I can describe. It may seem so rough, but for me it is impossble to explain the multi-dimentional resonance wolrd by my elementary English vocabrary.
Because there are neither subject nor object in the resonance world.
Right now it is unable to describe about resonance by English grammer which every word was divided into subject and object. I need to invent another logic to describe non-dual and multi-resonance world, but it will take long time.
Tightrope walk
When you carry the Kugutsu body, there are some specific technique to keep stillness.
One is tightrope walk which you walk on a line between the first toe and heel. Imagine that you are walking on the tightrope in the space.
Sinking feet
Not lift up your foot at all, but imagine that your foot sink into the ground with pressing down each foot.
Nijiri walk
Carry your Kugutsu body with using only toes. Repeat toes bend and streatch.
Oriental walk
Slide your Kugutsu body toward side direction with using your toe ball and heel one after another.

The Butoh 10 A Girl who planed an evil deed in the rain
10 A girl who plans evil deeds in the rain
A girl who plans evil deeds in the rain
Hijikata wrote this sentense at the first line for his last butoh score of "Solo in the Quiet
house" (1973).
Who is this girl?
Where did she came from?
Hijikata was born as the last son. He had five elder brothers and five elder sisters.
He loved a sister who was taken picture with him when he entered an elementary school
(See above slide arround 1935)
She had to leave from him to work at far-off town from her home village soon.
But Hijikata had traveled to meet her by long train after entering the elementary school.
He faced his sister who dressed with so loudly cloths and gaudy make up.
Why my sister had to gone?
Why did she dress such a colorfull cloths?
What did she do at the far-off town?
Young Hijikata had to ask himself many times in the dream arround mystery of his sister.
But he as a child could not solve the mystery, though when he became adult, it was so
easy to understand the cruel circumstances.
Later he talked about this, "In that age when Japanese nation-state fight against the world,
our northern area had to suply three things for the nation-state. The first one was rice, the second was horse, and the third was women."
It was a big tide which no one could niether resist nor escape at that age.
Hijikata spend time alone with dressed his dead sister's dress(Japanese Kimono) and with
long hair for long years in his forties.
He told, " I breed a dead sister in my drakness of body. We live together. I learned how to
comb long hair, how to behave with lady's dress. I learn everyhting about her in the every morning.
There are so complex relationship, more than that she falls down in the darkness, I also fall down. When she stand up, I fall down. When I devote in the creation of a butoh piece, she gives me an advise to stop all expressions. Dead sisiter is my real teacher of butoh.
We need to lesson hard with the dead constantly. We need live together with dead."
Hijikata spent for long time with his dead sister. it continued from his childhood to forties.
Hijikata might entered in her dream world so many times.
"What dream did you dream? Your whole life was as if in the hard rain. Many men's bodies
had passed through your body. Nothing must be remained in your dream. You must planed only evil deeds in your dreams. You needed to take back which you have lost in your life. Let me know the details of your nightmares.
In these long process, his dead sister's qualia and his body transformed into oneness.
It fermented, decayed, and crysttelized into a butoh peice in the depth of the darkness of
body.
He wrote the first sentense at his last butoh score.
A girls who plans evil deeds in the rain.
And he transformed his sister, she starts dance. Her outline transformed as an animal shape. She who plans so many evil deeds, and transformed into one after another.
Hijikata's butoh score had more than three hundred lines with so conplicated and pricise choreographies. But his dead sister could accept all of them. The evil deed was an extreme creation of butoh. It was a completion of the weakened body butoh method.
He could be burn out, and released from the bind by the anima as his dead sister.
After this performance, he stopped dancing, and concentrated in choreograpfy to his
company.
He entered into another process of creation. He continued to invstigate n the next stage of weakened body technique.
He worte in his notebook at his fifties, we need the butoh which is called as the name of life.
We need to enter the non-dual world before the self and the others have separated.
Butoh have to sink down into the hidden logic dimension where we assosiate with the spirits without any medium.
These images were his last investigation for butoh which is called as the name of life.
But he had to stop his investigation before it comes out with a form.
Now is the time which we continue the investigation toward the next stage of butoh.
What is the butoh of life?
Let's investigate in together.

our northern area had to suply three things for the nation-state. The first one was rice, the second was horse, and the third was women."
It was a big tide which no one could niether resist nor escape at that age.
Hijikata spend time alone with dressed his dead sister's dress(Japanese Kimono) and with
long hair for long years in his forties.
He told, " I breed a dead sister in my drakness of body. We live together. I learned how to
comb long hair, how to behave with lady's dress. I learn everyhting about her in the every morning.
There are so complex relationship, more than that she falls down in the darkness, I also fall down. When she stand up, I fall down. When I devote in the creation of a butoh piece, she gives me an advise to stop all expressions. Dead sisiter is my real teacher of butoh.
We need to lesson hard with the dead constantly. We need live together with dead."
Hijikata spent for long time with his dead sister. it continued from his childhood to forties.
Hijikata might entered in her dream world so many times.
"What dream did you dream? Your whole life was as if in the hard rain. Many men's bodies
had passed through your body. Nothing must be remained in your dream. You must planed only evil deeds in your dreams. You needed to take back which you have lost in your life. Let me know the details of your nightmares.
In these long process, his dead sister's qualia and his body transformed into oneness.
It fermented, decayed, and crysttelized into a butoh peice in the depth of the darkness of
body.
He wrote the first sentense at his last butoh score.
A girls who plans evil deeds in the rain.
And he transformed his sister, she starts dance. Her outline transformed as an animal shape. She who plans so many evil deeds, and transformed into one after another.
Hijikata's butoh score had more than three hundred lines with so conplicated and pricise choreographies. But his dead sister could accept all of them. The evil deed was an extreme creation of butoh. It was a completion of the weakened body butoh method.
He could be burn out, and released from the bind by the anima as his dead sister.
After this performance, he stopped dancing, and concentrated in choreograpfy to his
company.
He entered into another process of creation. He continued to invstigate n the next stage of weakened body technique.
He worte in his notebook at his fifties, we need the butoh which is called as the name of life.
We need to enter the non-dual world before the self and the others have separated.
Butoh have to sink down into the hidden logic dimension where we assosiate with the spirits without any medium.
These images were his last investigation for butoh which is called as the name of life.
But he had to stop his investigation before it comes out with a form.
Now is the time which we continue the investigation toward the next stage of butoh.
What is the butoh of life?
Let's investigate in together.

Life resonates with the Dead
Life resonates with the Dead
We have lost the resonativity with the Dead.
Especialy, we don't resonate with another country's dead.
What is the state?
How many people have died in Iraq or Afganistan, nobody cares, doesn't it?
Also we have forgotten about Vietnam war, the second world war.
I will continue to show the picture of the Dead in Auschwitz by Germany state,
the Dead in Nankin massacre by Japanese state,
the Dead in Sigon against USA.
Please check your life resonance ability with these Dead.
Is it alive? or not?
When we have lost the resonance ability, we finish.

May Michiko Kanba rest in peace
Dead friends in the darkness of my body
Many dead friends who were killed in the movement against Vietnam war,
against the government of Japan and USA 1960-1975, are living in the darkness
of my body.
Today is the day when Michiko Kanba was killed by police in the demonstration
against the Japanese goverment which promoted the war with Amarican gaverment
on 15th June, 1960.
Michiko came out in my dream and told me,
" Lee! Stop to do the fake dance!"
at the night of 15th June of 9 years ago.
Suddenly I aware that I fake myself at that moment, I made up the artists
network with every kind of dancers including modern dancers.
But that work forced me to take the fake mask as too much comminicative
and
I have fallen into the yesman.
I decided to separate from modern dancers who can not stop the ego, because
their ego inffluenced me almost dying together.
Then I could separate from these friends of modern dancers.
I did not know untill then that the ego of modern people's is so harmfull
for me.
The dead have informed me that I have to find my own way to separate completely
from modern people.
Then now I could established my own way in Himalaya India.
Thank you for awaring me, my dead friends!
