He is also passionate about nurturing the future generation of artists.
Opera
Handa debuted as an opera singer in 1997, and in December 2002, at the age of 51, he completed a course in opera at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA) at Edith Cowan University in Western Australia, and was awarded a master's degree in creative arts. Each year since then, he has worked in opera as executive producer and appeared in principal and supporting roles. He seeks each year to fuse Japanese and Western culture in opera as executive producer.[51] A characteristic of his staging is his fusion of Japanese manners and morals with Western opera, for example by giving expression to characters' emotional dynamics through traditional Japanese dance.[45][52] He performs opera roles entirely in their original language, but their names are all Japanese (using Chinese characters).[53] He always uses Japanese subtitles when showing his operas.[52] And he brings Japanese style to his dance productions with Taishō Period (early 20th century) settings and kimono set against beautiful backdrops, as in kabuki.[52]
In March 1997, he made his opera debut in the role of Yasuyori in Osamu Shimizu's opera Shunkan.[54]
On November 14, 2002 he performed the role of Prince Shōtoku in the opera Shotoku Taishi – Wa o Motte Toutoshi to Nasu (『聖徳太子』和を以て貴しとなす, literally, Prince Shōtoku – Harmony is to be valued), for which he was also the executive producer.[52][55]
In December 2003, he held a concert with the Australian and Chinese performers called Great Japanese, Chinese and Australian Singers' Joint Performance – An Evening of Classical Opera, featuring himself as the Japanese singer, at the Grand Palace of the People's Theater in Beijing.[56][57] On September 2, 2004, he performed the role of Marcello in the opera Taishō Jidai no La bohème (大正時代のラ・ボエーム, literally, La bohème in the Taishō Era).[58]
On May 30, 2004, he assisted with the premiere of the super opera Yang Guifei in Beijing, China, performing the role of Akao himself.[52] Yang Guifei had a favorable reception in various Chinese newspapers, with coverage of him, the Japanese singer and Peking Opera actor. The Beijing Daily coverage included a report that Jiang Kun and his wife were moved to tears.[59] The People's Daily said the script was moving, the music excellent, and that he had made a contribution to China-Japanese cultural exchange.[60] The GuangMing Daily lauded the great contribution to this opera by him and his many years of efforts toward China-Japanese cultural exchange.[61]
On September 15, 2005, he performed the title role of Figaro in the opera, Hinamatsuri no Figaro no Kekkon (雛祭りのフィガロの結婚, literally, The Marriage of Figaro at the Hinamatsuri)[62]. In October the same year, he was executive supervisor for another performance of the super opera Yang Guifei, which had been very well received the year before in Beijing, this time it was the overseas premier in Japan at the Grand Auditorium in the Shinjuku Bunka Center.[52] The opera was very well received, which was also reported in the Chinese press.[63] The Shaanxi Daily wrote about his passion for contributing to China-Japanese cultural exchange.[64]
On September 27, 2009, he performed the title role in the opera ZEUS no Keshin Kaijin Don Giovanni (ゼウスの化身 怪人ドン・ジョヴァンニ, literally, The Phantom – Avatar of Zeus: Don Giovanni). It was reported that showing subtitles in Italian made the performance easier to understand and more interesting.[65][66]
In 2012, he performed the title role in Don Pasquale in the 1st Grand Opera Japan, a performance with Opera Australia in Japan, and the first joint production in Japan.[67] Until 2010, the theme of his operas had been conveying Japanese culture from a Japanese person's perspective, however, with the Grand Opera Japan series starting in 2012, the production goal shifted to conveying Japanese culture from a Westerner's perspective.[67] This production of Don Pasquale featured a former Japanese Ambassador to Italy in his 70s, who appears on stage in his Italian villa dressed in Yukata, with framed calligraphy in his hand adorning the wall, and a scene in which he flourishes his calligraphy brush.[67]
Concerts
In addition to opera, he is also active as a singer-songwriter, and a singer of rock, jazz, animation theme songs, J-pop, enka and children's songs, having appeared in over 50 concerts and recitals in both Japan and other countries. He has often fulfilled in the role of executive producer for concerts, and has also conducted, performed on the violin, and performed classical ballet. He studied conducting under Kiyomasa Nagase,[68] and has conducted more than 30 concerts both in Japan and other countries.[69]
On November 18, 1994, he conducted the Royal Albert Hall Orchestra and sang in Around the World, a charity concert at the Royal Albert Hall in London, England.

Philanthropic activities

Blind golf
Establishment of the Japanese Blind Golf Association
He introduced blind golf to Japan in 1988 by establishing its first Blind Golf Club.[4][133] He is Honorary Chairman of the Japanese Blind Golf Association[134] and Honorary President of the International Blind Golf Association.[note 4][135] He became aware of the need for philanthropy for sight-impaired people when he heard Shinjiro Matsui (at the time director of the Japan Vocational Development Center for the Blind), who served as first Chairman of the Japanese Blind Golf Association, say the words: Visually impaired people in particular are stuck in an unfavorable environment in comparison with various other types of disabilities. In 1987, the year prior to his blind golf undertakings, he was at a golf course in Perth, Australia, and was deeply moved by the very cheerful demeanor of some blind golfers there, as well as their excellent play. Later on at a seminar he held, he was impressed by the following words from Yasuko Ichibangase, then a professor at Japan Women's University: Philanthropy should help people with disabilities to achieve self-fulfillment. Thus, he came to think that the starting point of philanthropic activities should be to offer a place and an environment where people with disabilities can realize their potential. Because the blind golfers he witnessed playing in Australia were the most cheerful, pleasant, and happy people with a disability he had ever met, he began developing worldwide activities to promote blind golf as social contribution through golf in the private sector.[136]
Once again golf will be an official sport at the 2016 Olympics, and he is working to spread blind golf so that it may be adopted as an official sport in the 2020 Paralympics.[4]

When Taishimei Koizumi, an authority on Shintoism, was struck down by illness in his eighties, he instructed his close advisor, Takao Fujinami (a former Cabinet Secretary), again and again to invite Handa to meet him. Apparently these were the only times Taishimei Koizumi ever sought a meeting with anyone.[165]
Handa studied Buddhism under the late Chanting Master, Reverend Denchu Amano, Daisōjō of the Tendai and in 1998 he took lay ordination with the authorization of the Tendai Zasu (the head priest at Mount Hiei Enryaku-ji).[166] He has also been recognized by the late Reverend Keido Fukushima, Abbot of Tōfuku-ji of the Rinzai school, and was given the lay practitioner name of Daigaku (大岳).
International Shinto Foundation (ISF)
He founded and heads the International Shinto Foundation (ISF), an NGO approved by the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) and the United Nations Department of Public Information (UNDPI).[167]
In 2001, he established the Toshu Fukami Shinto Studies chair in the Religious Studies Department at Columbia University.[167] As head of ISF, he cosponsored the 4th Inter-Faith Action for Peace in Africa (IFAPA) Summit in Johannesburg, South Africa from October 28 to 30, 2012. He was one of two religious leaders representing Japan, who propounded a means of resolving problematic issues.[168]
Human rights activities
his engagement in activities to support human rights is based on the idea that it is the very entrenchment of human rights that will manifest universal religiosity.
He is an Honorary Advisor to the Human Rights Council of Australia.[169] He established the first chair in human rights education in Australia, at Curtin University, Western Australia, and was bestowed the title of Citizen of Humanity by the Human Rights Council of Australia.
Through Worldwide Support for Development, he established the WSD HANDA Center for Human Rights and International Justice at Stanford University.
Sport philanthropy
In the belief that the power of sports can serve to make a more peaceful society, he has been promoting contributions to society and philanthropic activities through sports. In 2003, he established the International Sports Promotion Society based on the idea that if the golf world as a whole were to be invigorated and its vision broadened, the world of blind golf would grow too. The organization has launched efforts to support senior golf, women's senior golf, junior golf, and so on. He is trying new forms of golf tournaments, such as holding pro-am matches at each tournament, and holding mixed tournaments to deepen interaction by forming teams combining pros, amateurs, and blind golfers.[170] He is currently promoting efforts in support of other sports including bowling, archery, and rowing. In 2010, he was bestowed with the Asia-Pacific Golf Personality Award.[171]
These tournaments are held as philanthropic events[note 5] in which not only the proceeds but also part of the prize money is donated by the athletes to philanthropic organizations. He also holds many sporting events where athletes can play regardless of nationality, age, gender, or a handicap.[172]
Foundation of the International Sports Promotion Society
When he held a tournament in 2003 at Kobe Golf Club to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the establishment of the Japanese Blind Golf Association, he was deeply impressed by what club members told him and thereupon decided to contribute to society through golf. The next year, 2004, he was told by the women's pro golfer Masumi Inaba that official women's senior tournaments existed only in the United States, and Japanese female senior pro golfers had no opportunities to compete. Thereupon, he approached the US Women's Senior Golf Association (currently The Legends Tour), and the First World Senior Golf Ladies Open Tournament, an official U.S. Women's Seniors event, was held in Japan for the first time in April 2005 (under the joint auspices of the Japanese Blind Golf Association [JBGA], the International Blind Golf Association (IBGA), and The Legends Tour [Women's Senior Golf Association][note 6]). Then, in June that year, the JBGA, of which he is the Honorary Chairman, held the JBGA Senior Ladies Cup in cooperation with the Japan Ladies Professional Golf Association (JLPGA). This event was the impetus for two more official women's senior golf tournaments, and since then several official senior women golf tournaments have been held in Japan every year.
Later on in 2006, the Japan Ladies Professional Golf Association (JLPGA) launched the Japanese Ladies Senior Pro registration system and held the first QT (qualifying tournament) for Japanese Ladies Senior golfers.
These contributions to golf's success resulted in the 2006 launch of an annual women's senior pro tournament sponsored by the Legends Tour[173], the Handa Cup (Handa being his real surname), as a Legends Tour event in the Ryder Cup and Solheim Cup.[174][175] The tournament's title was changed to the ISPS Handa Cup in 2013.

The tournament has been held every year since as an opportunity for players to come together from around the world to learn skills and approaches to the game, as well as manners and the wisdom of experience from the seniors.

The Foundation drew attention to the construction of survey ships in the form of three-dimensional geophysical survey ships as an issue of importance directly connected to issues such as security, national border demarcation, and maritime interests, in other words, the national interest, while also recapitulating its desire for the government to make a political decision on the construction of a number of ships.[190][191]

Notes
- ^ Ami originated in the Buddhist invocation NAMU AMI DABUTSU (I sincerely believe in Amitabha;Lord have mercy on me). He thinks Ami has two meanings: the first one is that according to his interpretation, Namu means a believer who is equal to a secular person, and DABUTSU represents Buddha, as a monk. As the text shows, AMI is found between NAMU and DABUTSU, so that he thinks that it means to be neither a believer nor a monk, as well as to be both a believer and a monk; and the second meaning is that the Amis in the past were artists who had striven to enhance their souls through artistic practices and dedication for improvement until the last moment of their lives, and could be regarded as Japan's Leonardo da Vinci or Michelangelo, who contributed to the creation of the Japanese culture of today. He regards that Ami is a representation of the way of life in Japanese-style Renaissance. He named himself Toto Ami , as his declaration I will live like Ami throughout my life for enhancing, deepening and polishing my soul, and I will cheerfully and funnily die enjoying them, while creating a lot of works in that process.
