Words that have changed my life

Words that have changed my life

This word of Foucault that I met at the end of my twenties changed my life fundamentally. We can take off the "human" that is imprinted by the modern society, it turns on the light of the huge hope. This word has become the guidance that I was able to reincarnate as a Butoh dancer in my 40's. Because the Butoh, created by Tatsumi Hijikata also pursues to take off "human", and it opened up a practical way to become Life. In those days in my twenties, what should we do exactly after the death of "human", I had no idea about it.
I was wandered with searching in the darkness of body, it's no way to be the "Superhuman" as if in Nietzsche.
However, after 20 years of retreat in the Himalayas, the practical enlightenment that we take off "human" and at the same time, the way of "De-self" to take off the "Ego", "Self-identity" and "Personality" become transparent gradually yet slowly.
Hijikata also had pursued the way of "Butoh of Life" that "Sinking down to the relationship before the differentiation of self and others".
The way to be Life was becoming transparent.
Also, those resonate with the "Rhizome" that overcome the hierarchical Tree orders of Deleuze's thought who was Foucault's ally.
To take off Human, to become Life and to become Rhizome is Oneness. Because Life is Rhizome, neither the center nor the upper and lower. Foucault, Deleuze, and Hijikata are deeply connected to one and are an eternal forerunner for us to become Life.

Take off the modern "human illusion" and become Life!

Now, I can say that with confidence.
Friend, it is not yet late.
Let's become Life desperately!
