『心偈』32続

But it's only provisional appearance that goes by.

If 'eternal' means that has tomorrow forever, It's only change no more than always.

Always should mean which is cutting wandering, and time which doesn't have before and behind.

Eternal doesn't wait the distant future, it  is in inner part at the moment. 

In the art of tea ceremony, it is said that treasure every meeting, for it will never recur, it wouldn't say there is the tea of yesterday and  the tea of tomorrow will be, but the tea at the moment.

Also 'now' isn't have before and after, sooner or later, slowness and fastness, and longer or shorter.

The time like passing by is only uncertainty.

At the moment will be eternal, the idea of the time will come home at my heart for the first time.

Now that it has come to this, there isn't  the aged.

Because we uninhibited by the time.

The real life is only now.

It isn't concerned with the difference between old and new.

It is nothing but the imagination that there is the life in the continuation from yesterday to tomorrow.

 

「 今」を日常に埋没させないこと。自分への戒め。

 

積雪40センチ以上、月火と二日間小学校休校でした。

大人も雪かき。まだ家の周りは雪がたくさんです。
