Yoritomo chose this place aiming for impregnability by perfect feng shui.As the map shows, the land where the shogunate was established was surrounded by mountains on three sides. In order to invade, if you control "Kobukuro" in the northwest, "Asahina" in the northeast, "Nagoe" in the east, and "Hase" in the west, then you can only attack from the sea. This is perfect feng shui. Suzaku to the south (Yuigahama sea), white tiger to the west (Hase no Oka), It has all the Seiryu (namerigawa river) in the east.This impregnable figure can be compared to a horseshoe. In this horseshoe, the food, clothing and shelter necessary for the capital developed, To the temples and shrines that were opened one after another after the opening and invited first-class monks. A lot of monks visit the master and use the Wakaejima boat dock in Zaimokuza beach. I came here for training. The richly colored temples and shrines of the time were, so to speak, a lively place for international students.It was full of foreign languages and was as lively as today's Komachi street. I guess it will be.On a warm winter day, go outside with a cup of coffee. The deep part of the horseshoe that can be seen from the balcony, A flock of white doves circles over Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine. The series of irrevers gradually faded from sight, Delusions about a monk from a thousand years ago have come and gone.
Monk Myohkun came to Kamakura from the port of Song over 20 days. He came to Japan to visit the founder of Kenchoji Temple, Doryu Rankei. On the way, he encountered severe weather many times and finally set foot in Kamakura. He packed his personal belongings in one bag and held it under his arm and hit the gate. When he walk on the floor that is still fresh but has been thoroughly wiped and polished, he feel tense.He polished this floor day after day. He carried a bowl and went from house to house with begging. Reciting the Buddha's teachings, facing the gap with his own consciousness many times, Thinking feverishly about unseen truths, He's disgusted with his incomplete self, One day, he couldn't even raise his gaze above the hat. He continued walking while chanting sutras while drooping his head. At some point, the gravel road turned to sand.When he looked up for the first time in several hours, it was Yuigahama Beach where the sunset was reflected.It was the first time he had seen the sea since the day he set foot in Kamakura. A straight line from the sun to the ocean, an orange road was growing towards him.It is the delicate Tathagata that was held out as if to welcome.It felt like an arm.At that moment, Myohkun's consciousness ascended like evaporating water.
Enlightenment has arrived.
All the frustration, obsessions, frustration, and jealousy up until now sublimated into nothingness. It exists from head to foot, but this is a temporary form.The minute roots compose the body, compose the surroundings, compose the universe. Karisome(momentary appearance) is destined to continue to have conflicts,The root is free. Beyond the stars in the night sky,To the warm hands of my grandmother that day, To despair in yesterday's bed, we can reach anywhere.and to the teachings of Buddha.When he opened her eyes, the sun was about to set over Inamuragasaki.
The sun that can be seen from the balcony is approaching hill of Hase.17:00 in December is really chilly.With a pot of cyclamen in the sun and a cup of coffee,I went back to my room.Who was the delusional monk?
