Good evening!
As the moon becomes bigger and brighter, so the world reveals itself bigger and brighter.
As the mind is smaller and more shadowy, so the world is smaller and more shadowy.
As the idiom “four views of one (same) body of water” (issui shiken: 一水四見) shows, water for humans is a palace for fish, a bloodbath for devils, and an ornament for celestials.
“So many men, so many minds (jûnin toiro: 十人十色)”; so many minds, so many manners; so many manners, so many merits or so many miseries.
