No.43 On Our shukuzen or “past good”

Our shukuzen or “past good” simply means that we happen never to have slandered the Dharma in the past.
As such our shukuzen is always there to help us examine and purify our faith which we have received as a gift from the Buddha.

Humbly and respectfully

宿善とは過去に誹謗の心が偶々起こらなかっただけです。
したがって、今たまわっている信心を洗い直してくれるのです。
