Book “Wind Phone” Six years after the Great Earthquake, what you can see through “Wind Phone”.

Why is the “Wind Phone” made, what is seen and heard, what is he thinking, and where is he connected?

“Wind phone” has been taken up and introduced in many media to this day, but I thought that each description and video was just an introduction of some aspects. Therefore, I was always dissatisfied with the content of the report, saying, “It’s different.” In addition, there were many media people who visited “Wind Phone” and made offers with false recognition. It’s been a year since I started writing, and I was finally able to publish it.

What were 25,000 people doing there in six years to a wind phone with no telephone line connected anywhere … everyone is calling. I wrote this with the idea that I should convey the activities from the “Wind Phone” that connects the thoughts of the bereaved family and the deceased to the present.

Professor Yanaga, Clinical Psychologist, Keio University, who recommended this book, said, “I have been working as a psychologist for many years involved in the feelings of the bereaved family who lost a loved one. I felt a deep emotion without any feelings coming from the bottom of my heart. “

I think this book suggests one answer: where those emotions come from, why you feel healed by “Wind Phone”, and why it leads to getting out of grief work. If you have any doubts about why it is a “wind phone”, please pick it up and read it.

It is already on sale at Ippodo in Otsuchi, but it will be on sale at bookstores nationwide around August 24th after the Bon Festival.

Unlike the impression I see on TV, I can talk to them in a friendly manner, so I didn’t feel like a celebrity, and I just chatted.

According to him, “He seems to be looking at himself,” he said, “He seems to be looking at himself.” I think he felt that he was thin and smart, and he was not fat no matter how much he ate.

This time I was told that he would come with his wife and went home. I’m looking forward him to finding  some hints for the next work.

Mr. Miura, a photographer from Gifu visited Bell Gardia KUJIRAYAMA. He came to the children’s garden in Ofunato to deliver “Halloween persimmons” with  a persimmon farmer.

And it was Yoko Okumura, an alpa player, who came with them. She came from Nagoya to a concert in Ishinomaki, and after the concert, she said she really wanted to go to “Wind Phone” and “leave” the music to those who died in the earthquake.

This is the first time to hear Paraguayan instrument, and it seems that there are only three players in Japan. Even so, “I’ll leave the music” was the first word I heard again.

I felt that the tone of the alpa was very similar to the harp. Playing with tears what kind of life has she lived

She is the second person to play a music in front of “Wind Phone” since Katsumi Matsumoto, a violinist, but both of them are quite good, coupled with the spiritual atmosphere.

It is a live image at the time of Hodo Station, a TV news program on February 11, 2016.

“Wind Phone” read by Keiko Takeshita at Miyagi Gakuen Women’s University on March 6, everyone felt  that the idea of ​​not forgetting the earthquake was conveyed to the world. Also, after the broadcast of “NHK Special” on March 10, many people were impressed, and we have received encouraging emails and letters from all over the country asking them to continue. This is all the content that impresses me.

NPO Portamo’s “One Step to the Future-People-to-People Connections Heart-to-heart Connections” at the Mito City General Welfare Hall on March 12. Five years after the earthquake… The concert, which talks about the feelings for reconstruction and continues with music, will never forget the victims, and everything that has received “life” will take the first step toward the future. It is a song and a narrative that expresses the feelings that made it possible to take a step forward.

The only way to overcome sadness and suffering without staying there is to do whatever you want. It is also good to come to “Wind Phone” at your own will. I think that what you want to come is a step out of the grief, and you can change your consciousness and see the future. I strongly felt that in the activities of Portamo. I look forward to an even better stage in the future.

Five years after the Great Earthquake, the feelings of those who visit “Wind Phone” have changed.

I pray that I can change my consciousness as soon as possible.

Everyone, have you been doing well today for the first time in a while? I got sick last December and had to take a rest. Please be assured that it has improved considerably.

By the way, March 11th marks the fifth year since the Great East Japan Earthquake, but more than 190,000 people are still forced to live in evacuation centers.

Australian psychiatrist Beverley Raphael, in his book “When a Disaster Hits”, states that “forgotten” is the greatest danger to disaster victims. Many of the victims are still living a life that should not be forgotten. I would like to remind those people and give them their thoughts.

On the other hand, there are also plans in various places to remember to be close to everyone.

Introducing “Wind Phone”, on March 6th, Tohoku University International Research Institute of Disaster Science / Miyagi Gakuin Women’s University / Kataritsugu Sendai Executive Committee / Reconstruction Support Concert Executive Committee “Katari Tsugi” reading and music evening sponsored by the society at Miyagi Gakuin Women’s University.
