Good morning. I hope you’re doing well today. This is Shima from Oubaitori. This is Morning Daimoku — 10,000 Daimoku a Day journal.
A New Business — Decided, and Already Underway
“At last,” I say — and you might be thinking, So what is he going to talk about?
The truth is, I’ve decided on a new business. And it has already started. What is it?
You might think it has nothing to do with you. But actually, it has a lot to do with you.
From “I Can’t” to “I Can”
The book I’m writing now, Human × Daimoku × AI = LB³, will be out on Kindle very soon. And AI — this year, it has become part of my work in so many ways. It has truly helped make my work more efficient.
Things I thought I couldn’t do, I can now do with AI. For me, the ground that stretches from “I can’t” to “I can” keeps growing and growing.
For example — I can’t do English, and yet I can publish a book in English. That’s how big the difference is.
AI Played a Big Part in My Books
What I’ve lived through myself — that’s what all my books have been, too. Each one has been my own experience of faith, turned into a book.
Last year it was Butsudan Revolution: The Story of the Kokū Zushi. This May, Let’s Daimoku! And very soon — around the start of November — LB³ will be published.
And all along the way, the thing that helped the most was AI.
Not Used by AI — the One Who Uses It
With this new business, I want all of you to put AI to work, too. I want you to become the one who uses AI. That’s what I’m hoping for.
Not the one being used — but the one using AI to turn your own value creation into reality. That’s how I see it. Call out “AI,” and it answers, “Aiyo!” — “Aiyo!” (In Japanese, aiyo is a cheerful “You got it!”)
The Website Is Already Up
I’ve already launched the website. It keeps evolving, day by day.
Pine, Bamboo, Plum — Monitors Wanted for the Free Plum Course
And right now, we’re looking for monitors for AIyo.
We’re also planning three courses: Matsu, Take, and Ume — pine, bamboo, and plum. It’s an old-fashioned way of naming things. Very Shōwa era!
Pine, bamboo, plum — three tiers. The plum course is free, and that’s the one we’re looking for monitors for.
By all means, everyone — if you’re interested, give it a try.
Let’s Daimoku!
Today was a little commercial for AIyo.
Today’s Question
What is one thing you’d like to turn from “I can’t” into “I can” — with AI on your side?
Bloom your own way, at your very best.
