I was a student. Although it is another temple, the head of the monk was invited to Shanghai as a state guest in 1997. He was interested in a newspaper reporter from Shanghai, and he wanted him to come and inspect because of that connection. Local police(Japan)It seems that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs asked me if there was a person inquiry.

The director said, "I don't know, but the name is a Chinese Buddhist site inspection team. When I arrived, the airport manager of Shanghai Airport came to greet me. It seems that he was led by a local police police car. In a TV interview, the late president replied, "I want to actually see, touch, and feel with my soul the Buddhist ruins in China, which are the origin of Buddhism in Japan."


The photo above may be different, but is it "Unrin Zen Temple"?(Unknown, maybe mixed...)The size of the Great Buddha Hall of Todaiji Temple is built on three steps at the back of the temple gate, and at the top of the mountain, more than 20 monks greeted me and started reading sutras all at once. Unlike the sutras you hear at funerals in Japan, it was like metal sounds and ultrasonic waves. It seems that the Tibetan lama monk also gave sutras with this kind of sound. Fifteen years before he was invited, he went to Mongolia via Beijing when he went to a cave temple. I heard the sound of the great wind in Mongolia and heard a song of homi from a Mongolian man who was drinking in a small restaurant. At that time, he said that he was in tears when he heard the song and did not know what to do. I won't write about it here, but it was said that I was taught from reading sutras and singing.


I think the photo above is a photo of the vice president of the Chinese Buddhist Association, Master Ming Yang (Jiang Zemin's advisor), at a press conference at his home. This is the story of the chief priest of Motoyama who accompanied him, but he said, "Friends of Japan, thank you for coming. He said that even though he is a great person, his friendly feeling is amazing. Also, the Chinese vegetarian food prepared was so delicious that he had never eaten it before.
And he wanted to see the calligraphy of "Wang Xizhi", which is also one of the purposes, and he was guided to the Shanghai Museum and came into contact with history. When I entered neighboring Hangzhou from Shanghai, the police car was also taken over by Hangzhou, which was under its jurisdiction, and he led the way. The number 1 of the car is used by the police chief, and the second is the next one. When I stayed at a hotel in Saiko, my favorite dish came out during the meal. It seems that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs conducted a survey in advance and understood their preferences.

The photo above is a commemorative photo with the police car in the background. Mr. Kanju of the Nichiren sect who admired and admired the police officer


I think the photo above is a goose pond. Wang Xizhi likes geese and is still in the pond.



The director of the Rantei Calligraphy Museum asked me to write it. Because it was unexpected, I couldn't press it because I didn't bring the signature. Regret.
I have heard the meaning of "way" = seeking the way when it was written. It seems that it was written in the sense that "a person's life must always be lived with a desire to improve.
The following is an aside.
The president used to say this.
To put it bluntly, it would be impossible if Kannon, a national treasure class, had eleven faces on his face. But for some reason, it's so beautiful that it brings tears to my eyes. "No matter what kind of object it is, as the ancients said, there is a saying that the head of a sardine is also from faith, but after all, as an object of prayer, if you recite it seriously, it will look beautiful." And it seems that there was such a thing about prayer. "A man whom the president was caring for fell ill and was hospitalized. He recommended that he should avoid being discharged from the hospital, but he was treated at home because the hospital was in a lull, but when he returned home, he fell down the stairs and broke his leg bone, and was hospitalized due to deteriorating condition and fell into a critical condition. A few days later, when I was asked, he looked at the president (I am worshiping him diligently. The president seemed to trust me, and after I was in a critical condition, I often appeared in my dreams, so I put my hands together and prayed hard. Among them, my physical condition has changed, the swelling of my legs has been halved, and my stomach is flat and my face is swollen. I thought so. I thought that those who have the state of mind and ability to pray will be saved. Also, (People who have an object to pray for are happy.) And (I pray that you can feel it at any time, when you are grateful, when you are sad. Whatever you pray for. While thinking of Buddha and ancestors, it is okay to think of the title and title of your family's sect, and what you believe in naturally comes from your heart. Prayer can be anywhere on the futon. Also, I can realize once again that you say that you are really great and that if you chant the Buddha, you will be saved. He said. )」
I would like to write this down as a warning to myself and end this time.
As the director felt when he was in the world of lines, he said, "The ears of the Buddha are long and large. It is proof that we are trying to listen to the appeals and wishes of sentient beings in every corner of the world to understand our own hearts and current situation, and that we are trying to listen to the worries and sufferings of each person with all our nerves. We who have a connection with the Buddha's world must practice so that we stand in the same position as the Buddha's big ears. He said that he should admonish his senior disciples once again. In the words of the president, education is to develop a heart that understands the suffering of others."
It seems that there is still a lack of dedication. Will I grow a little more and travel before I die? I wonder if I'll do my best! ? I will do my best.
This continuation and secret story will be discussed on another occasion.
Together, great compassion
Monk Kenji Hoshino
