I hope the monk who gives the sutra lecture is a handsome person. Only when you stare at the handsome face of the monk, you can feel the preciousness of what he is talking about.
From the stage of “Spring is Akebono”
Night is good in summer! It is good that a lot of fireflies are flying not only when the moon is rising but also in the dark night. Also, it is good to fly one by one, shining faintly. It’s good that it rains.
From “elegant”
Elegant and beautiful. Put shaved ice in a bowl and sprinkle with sweet juice. Also, the beads of crystal are elegant. Also, it is beautiful that a very cute little child is eating strawberries.
