Ms. Lennon, Have you taught Sean..your traditional Japanese Cooking Recipes? do you trust Sashimi with all the oil spills? Domo Arrigato~ _/\_
I didn’t have to teach him. He loved Sashimi. John loved Sashimi, too. Of course, we have to be careful now because of oil spills. But if so, there are so many things we have to be careful about in terms what to eat. Just make sure to eat sashimi of fish which came from where there’s no oil spills at this time. Pretty soon, we may not have such a place in the world, but we still have it now. We must get use to life changing rapidly, and we change our lives accordingly. Be protective of yourself without being stuck to your old habits.

What is the most far-reaching and effective issue on which Occupy needs to focus?
By a peaceful occupation, let the politicians know that we are wide awake, even if they are not. They have to be careful about their moves now, since we are not happy with the way our lives have been dealt with by them. On a subconscious level it’s working. They were thinking, they have couch potatoes for “people” and they can do anything they like and we won’t notice. That’s not so. But don’t give them a chance to despise us. Learn from our dogs, cats and lions to clean ourselves and to be silent and still together before the meal. Show animal dignity. And stand for human rights, justice and peace.

do you practice zen meditation, madam Yoko Ono ?
Meditation is part of all Asian lives. If anything, that is Asian Power. We meditate when we eat, when we walk, when we dream. We are in meditation all the time.

Will your “Every Man Has A Woman” album ever be available again on CD? All those great artists like Elvis Costello and Harry Nilsson performing YOUR SONGS, how amazing was that?!!?
They were my friends and did it for love. So when you listen, you hear their love.

Hello Yoko and thaks for this opportunity. How do you separate your ‘artist you’ and your ‘business you’ or is there need to do it?
I don’t separate. Separation creates less power. Do everything with the utmost power you have… like making love.

I love flowers with sweet smells.

What makes you laugh?
Life is laughable. That’s why we keep trucking.

Hi yoko! I’ve visited the dakota twice (jan 2011 and jan 2012) and strawberry fields. I love sitting in central park to escape the busy streets of new york city. My question is, how do you find inner peace in such a busy, hectic, chaotic world!?
There is always peace inside us. Listen to your heartbeat, and you will know.
Bill Cannon
Thanks for the inspiration. You are like deep blue sky.
You inspire me, too, by those beautiful words. Thank you.

I went to ur exhibit at SFMOMA yrs ago.. What’s the story behind the clear maze with the toilet? Thanks!
It was showing that your search for something grand may end up in the reality of what we must do every day. There is a bit of sense of humor, too. Don’t take yourself too seriously. is the message. We must defacate to clean ourselves.
Madeleine. @MadiJonesCasey
which do you think is more important out of love or success? I love you Yoko, you are amazing You love yourself for having succeeded in something. Unless you love yourself you cannot love others. Success can mean just being successful in conquering your smoking habit. So success and love is very much connected. One needs to build ones dignity as a human being to love. You cannot love when you hate yourself.
NewAgeSinners @NewAgeSinners
Thank you for protecting John’s legacy. All music and movies you’ve allowed have been done with great respect and love.
Thank you for your understanding
i love the gang.✰ @Reynolds_Dee
What’s the hardest decision you’ve ever made ?
Every day to go forward.

How do you get parents to understand their queer kids? 
You have come to this earth through your parents and have grown up with their love. The choice to have them as parents was made for some reason, but not to share all knowledge. So you don’t have to give them information they are not ready to understand and be hurt by it..
One day, they may wake up to deeper understanding of life, or they may not. Meanwhile, you will have many, many people who are your family. Be strong, and know the role of your parents in your life, and love them for it.
Mary Armstrong @Mary_Lynnzizzle
Yoko, have you ever lain on the ground and watched the snow fall at night? It’s magical.
I certainly did. As you know I am crazy about snow! Read GRAPEFRUIT and you will see many SNOW pieces.

What exactly is “the other side”?
Time is a man made concept. So is the “Other side”. There is no such thing as the other side. It’s all what you are creating in your head to play the game of life as such. We are on the same side. All of us.
Jan R. Annechino @surrogatekey
If you could invent a new color, what would it look like?
There are already all colors in the world. Why try to create another? Just give love to what we are given to perceive.
Jan Madeleine. @MadiJonesCasey
what is your favorite type of wild animal and why? Does it represent anything to you?
Wild animals living in the way they were meant to live – with freedom and dignity.

Where did you come up with the title “Season of Glass“? What an awesome phrase, not to mention awesome album.
I thought of the season in which everything was suddenly clear as glass and my heart, so fragile. I realized it through my pain when my husband suddenly passed away.

yoko what does it mean ” I’m in phase 9 now”,( your response to fact you don’t cook but put energy else where) what is is significant about the # 9? Does John’s Revolution #9 share a meaning?
with a handshake in thought.

Thank you so much for answering my question Yoko
Joseph Martin john is a light that will never go out for all you need is love will continue to feed this light
he was a poet, songwriter, composer, a father, a champion for peace but most of all he was just a man. unlike paul m. he could feel and write a…bout pain and longing and reach the depths of dispair and somehow it was beautiful Help i need somebody, so i sing a song of love for julia, mother you had me but i never had you, women you understand the little child inside a man, i was dreaming in the past and my heart was beating fast, if you want money for people with minds that hate all i can tell you brother you’ll have to wait, war is over if you want it, no need for greed or hungar a brotherhood of man,but most of all IN MY LIFE I LOVE YOU MORE
happy birthday john you are loved and i and millions more will miss you
Yoko, your message is beautiful and we still believe in Peace.
Here in South America we fight everyday for our beliefs, our ideals, our peace motives and for the beauty of life.
Sometimes is very hard to swim against the currents, against over consumption, against the media, against the powerful and their money.
But when i saw you and your willpower to keep screaming for peace and love for everyone, i feel alive now and i’ll keep yelling and working to build a better world for us all.
Thank you Yoko. Mata ne!
Felipe Nadeau.
i need your help!…i’m in a big emotional crisis and i don’t think i’m handling too well….
[...] I relation till händelsen med Gloria Emerson är det intressant att läsa Yoko Onos svar på en fråga från RMG_Design på twitter om vad hon tror om de ständigt växande sociala mediernas roll i att skapa ”worldpeace and harmony”. Yoko svarar: [...]
Hello Yoko, thank you for being available. I was at MoMA this past weekend…I screamed and made a wish. Thanks for bringing me full circle…and thank you for your he(art). I will be thinking of you and John tomorrow. Xo jen
Hi Jen! It’s nice that you participated in the scream piece and screamed. Your scream joined all the other screams of that piece performed in MOMA, and is sending out a strong vibration and making a strong statement to the world. love, yoko
Many years ago in NY you and John did a TV show on channel 13 which I attended. I have never heard anything relating to this show. Could you please let me know why.
Love and God Bless
That show still exists as a video and is played once in awhile by the TV station.
My next cd with my poems / music will be dedicated to you and John. This because of the good vibes you’re givin’ to the world. More than thanks, and with lovin’ greetings from The Netherlands,
Jos Witteman
Once again thank you very much for taking the time to answer the questions your much appreciated n loved..cheers, thanks.
Live forever
HI Yoko,
I am doing a write up on Cut Piece. I was wondering what is a message or representation you were trying to say with this piece?
Thanks,
Kallie
There are many layers of statements in that piece. It is not just one. yoko
Thank you for the answers that you shared to me especially about questions related when you were expecting a baby with John.. One of my favorites is you are craving meat and cabbage and about morning sickness.. hope if you don’t mind I could post some questions that was bugging in my head. it is all about Sean when he was not yet born (I mean inside your womb)… again thank you…
Love your response to my query, thank you so much for your work. You’re absolutely right about love.
Yoko, God bless you, love nessus
Yoko, one day I drove through Florida and felt incredibly sad, for no apparent reason, later, I found out Nam June Paik had died, how did you feel on that day? do you remember?
Yes. I felt sad. He was a good friend. yoko
Love your work Yoko !!!
Yoko, do you believe in “an eye for an eye”? those who kill should be killed in return or anything like that?
No. Watch this.
Thank you Yoko for taking the time to answer these questions. Your ideas inspire me.
