Listening to the words of Dharma friends, I find myself bowing to them in surprise, saying “Now I understand what you experienced!”
It is the moment when everything that has been done for me by all the Buddhas, by all my good friends, everything that has long lain inscribed deep within my body, comes finally to be revealed.

お同行の言葉に、思わず「そうでしたか」と頭がさがる。
久しく、深く、私の身体に刻まれていた、諸佛・善知識の御恩の世界が開ける瞬間です。
