心身統一道(香里天風会)
先週末の金・土・日と3日間、香里天風会の夏期特別研修会(修練会)が開催された。猛暑の中での3日間、
体力的には相当堪えるが精神的には清清しく、心身統一の為の充実した週末を過ごすことが出来た。
朝8時から夕方5時まで、ほぼ缶詰目状態でみっちりと行修する。私は今回で14回目、修練の内容は毎年同じもので、
決して特別な事をしたり、新たな事を付け加えたりはしない。ところが、感じ方は毎年違う。
不思議な事に体力的には年々きつくなっていると思うが、感じ方は全く逆で年々楽になり、今年などは「アレッもう終わったのか・・」
と云う感じであった。
参加者は50名弱、老若男女入りまじっており、上は90歳余から下は3歳の幼児まで。とは云っても3歳の子はただ道場を走り回り、
疲れると母親の横で指をチュチュしながら寝ているだけだが。
心身統一道というのは人生道であり、生きてる限り続けるもので終わりはない。これで良しと云う事もない。天風先生自身、
「統一道を一番熱心に遣っているのは私ではないか・・・」と、公言しておられたと言う。多分私も死ぬまで続けるんだろうな・・と感じている。
The special summer training session of the Kori Tenpukai was held for three days on Friday, Saturday and Sunday last weekend. For three days in the heat.
I had a great weekend to unify my mind and body, which was physically demanding but mentally refreshing.
From 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., I was almost in the middle of the night. This is the fourteenth time I’ve done this, and the content of the training is the same every year.
We never do anything special or add anything new. However, the feeling is different every year.
Strangely enough, I think physically I am getting tighter and tighter every year, but the way I feel is the complete opposite, it gets easier every year, like this year, “Oh, it’s over already…
It was like this.
There were about 50 participants, young and old, both men and women, from over 90 years old at the top to 3 years old at the bottom. However, a three-year-old just runs around the dojo and
When I get tired, I just fall asleep next to my mother while nuzzling my fingers.
The mind-body unification path is a life path that continues as long as you live, and it never ends. There’s no such thing as a good thing. Mr. Tenpou himself said.
It is said that he had professedly said, “Isn’t it me who is most passionate about the Unification Path? Maybe I’ll keep doing it until I die…I feel like it.
