Coffee Break with Kuryu Matsumoto

NIN() should’ve been part of my recent「武士道」 book

-- causes gravitational waves.


Nin is a samurai’s self-worth. 

I’m in the vortex of Bushido. Are you in or out? Get in the vortex with me at your own risk. I got in on my own. 

It wasn’t till I got engulfed in this whirl-pool at Minami Awaji that I learned that giri and ninjo are intertwined in eddying waters. 

The collapse, oops, fusion of the two gravitational waves colliding into each other, complementing with each other.


The Spiral Logic. The natural logic. Natural logic doesn’t go straight, like, first, second, third or past, present, future; it goes spiral—getting right back where it started from. The past and the future evolve around here and now – zero gravity. It’s the center of Norwegian Maelstrom. It’s the eye of the typhoon – the funnel. You may call it void, ether, gravitational wave center.


When surface currents and tidal currents collide, dangerous giant whirlpools (maelstroms) occur on their own, like Onokorojima, 自凝島 in the ocean. Nushima, famous for hamo, softbony fish, product of Jomon currents, eventually fused spirally into Awaji island, thus consummating the marriage made in heaven between hunter, gatherer Jomon culture and rice-cultivating Yayoi culture.

Nushima gave us fishery, whereas Awaji-shima gave us farming culture. Fabulous onions.
Two cultures across the Median Techtonic Line, merge spirally into the celestrial conjugation, giving rise to the unity between Izanagi 's sperm and Izanami 's egg. The biological intercourse between two deities materialized the birth of the twin, first-born Nushima and Awaji-island. Hence Japan's creation myth. The two vortexes are spirally conjoined for eternal mutual attraction.



木馬館 keeps on harping on one thing. What goes up must come down. You get what you give.(因果応報) You just don't give it away. Time or money. Everything comes full circle.
I've been living in two major cultural vortexes: Osaka and Tokyo.
Now I'm in the middle of the conjoined ocean,

Currents are horizontally moving, created by global winds, affected by the Earth's spin.
Ocean water moves up and down in daily patterns called tides. Tides are caused by the gravitational, rotational forces of the Sun and the Moon acting on Earth. The moon's pull on the Earth is stronger than the Sun, because it's closer to us. 太陰暦 (lunar calendar) is more influential, more vibrational, and more gravitational than 太陽暦 (solar calendar), because it's more natural – with apologies to Fukuzawa Yukichi who poo pooed the former. 

Nature is spiral. We should be spiral. And our logic must be spiral, by extension.
