Good morning!
We have now the half moon quickly changing from the full moon. We have candle light quickly burning to its end. The moon seems to repeat its changing phases, but has its end.
Before I came here I watched the special program on the last year tsunami which claimed about 20,000 lives. The tsunami swallowed even those who fled up to the refuge buildings.
The Buddha said that the east, west, south, and north mountains are pressing upon us. What would you do? Every one must face this situation, but no one knows when.
Life is like light before wind blowing off (fûzen-no tomoshibi: 風前の灯). How can we let it blown by fame and fortune, sacrificing precious life? Memento mori before it vanishes.
