Practice Guide of Butoh Revolution

The essence of the Butoh Revolution caused by Tatsumi Hijikata is to create a new "Beauty" by finding the exquisite Jo-Ha-Kyu even in the ugly and distorted state of Life that people of the world do not recognize as beauty. The great works were established by surrendering human ego, identity and judgment and becoming Life. Hijikata placed the "Flower of Kan" in the essence of the Butoh of Life transmitted by resonance from Life to Life. Life resonates with everything in the world. However, there are some Qualia that are not able to resonate well for Life. That becomes "Kan". Life is sometimes squeezed with unavoidable force, twisted and poisoned, then deformed. Convert the "Kan" into "Flower". That is the essence of the Butoh Revolution, the "Flower of Kan". To explore and realize the "Flower of Kan" It begins with the search for Qualia which our Life couldn't resonate well and have warped into ugly and distorted shape within the abyss of the darkness of the body. At the Subbody Resonance Butoh School Himalaya, I have edited the total articles found in the last 20 years. The original, which had 1500 pages, was condensed into 500 pages of this book. In my Life Resonance philosophy, what I think in my head is nothing but an illusion as long as it stays in my head. Only if we can work hard to resonate and share it with other people, it can become something real for Life. Every day for 20 years, I kept sharing the best that I found with people immediately. The everyday life of a Butoh dancer who is a midwife of the creativity of Life is very simple. Every day, I just seek to find a comfortable medimotion conditioning that calms the consciousness, share it with the co-researchers, and become a subconscious body (subbody = cobody). After that, let the body move, and leave ourselves to be moved by something. And dig the darkness of the body in different ways every day. I was always surprised when the unique and unexpected subody=cobody, squirted out with mysterious movements. We have to take off all the judgment of the "human" to open up the infinite creativity of Life. Every weekend we perform and share them with the public as transparent as possible. Butoh is a real-time Life Resonance Art from Life to Life. For the first time after the dance is over, various questions and mysteries rush. Why did such a subbody=cobody come out? Where did they come from?I have been found some logics in the last 20 years trying to solve those tremendous mysteries. Those logics were crystalized as the theory parts of the first to third chapters of this book. Theories are actually based on practice. If you really want to be a Butoh dancer, I suggest you start with chapter 4 and read while moving your body.
