Prologue 88


Prologue 93

When the clouds of the three kinds of existence (of life and death) disperse
The oneness of the Dharma-realm, the true body is revealed

Ah, the luminous Moon (the Primal-Vow and the Name)!
‘The Dharma’ is truly wonderful! Even I can also be saved, how amazing this is!
The irrefutable evidence is ‘Namu-amida-butsu’.
The moonlight is beaming brightly; even the ‘faith’ is out of sight
To attain faith or not is just an idea of man
Amida Buddha and I are like the pine leaf:
Both sides are the same
When Nyorai begins to show His face, all things are unraveled.  Namu-amida-butsu is Nyorai. The Primal-Vow, the Name, the beckoning sounds, the Perfect Enlightenment, all is Nyorai. To encounter Nyorai, it makes the spirit high.

My only duty is to hand over my life-and-death to life-and-death, while roaming in the echoes of nembutsu to repay the kindness of Buddha.
