Good morning!
We can enjoy the beautiful spring Sunday scene with lush green leaves and clear blue
sky in the shiny sunlight, especially after sittings and service. We may not be able to
enjoy it, if we are blind, asleep, and astray. Last night I watched the NHK Special
“Great Life Leap – Camera Eye Emergence.”
The rhodopsin gene producing a light sensing protein, developed in plants (as found
in Dinophyceae) and acquired by animals (as in jellyfish), was quadrupled five
hundred million years ago, as in the case of chloroplasts for photosynthesis by
plants being acquired by animals (as in Elysia chlorotica).
Animals must usually feed on plants or other animals, thus becoming predatory.
Mankind, with gene multiplication and mutation, has become supreme in karmas
with the triple poisons of desire, division, and delusion, endangering the global life
system with mass extinction, etc.
Mankind must acquire the third eye of prognosis – unsurpassed awakening in
unconditioned peace (nirvana) by sitting, stilling karmas, softening the stiffness of
our bodies and minds – freedom from and of them in holy (wholly wholesome)
harmony and happiness to enjoy holy truth, goodness, beauty.
