He was very versed in Edo folklore and was a man of great thought.’ He abhorred lying, swearing, quarrelling and fighting hence he was also being referred to as Ere II. He spoke of the journey of the mind saying “that the mind journeys over the horizons of life thriving on the infinity of time, discovering that tomorrow’s events are that of yesterday’ s and that yesterday was born to bring today so that we may realize the futility of life.
Time tortures us, contradicts our life’s puzzle and frustrates us and yet giving us hope for tomorrow of what may happen or yet to come, then the struggle continues until we are gone from the surface of the wonderful world” People always gather to listen to this great philosopher
