We
just trust in
the
Primal Vow for its inconceivability
of
“saving this worthless fellow”.
We are tied up by our own “calculation” and fooled
by our own mind. So called kinojinshin,
which is the deep faith on the part of “those who are to be saved” signifies
that,
“No matter how bombu calculate,
it is of no use. Without the power of the Buddha, bombu are incapable of becoming Buddha. Hence, do not rely on bombu’s idea of searching out your mind.”
This in itself constitutes honojinshin, the deep faith on the “side
that does the saving.” Honojinshin
refers to the design of the Tathagata, which is to trust deeply that we are
relying on the Primal Vow-power for birth.
