天風会（香里天風会）
昨日は、香里天風会の越年会であった。
天風会では忘年会とは言わず越年会と称しており、毎年１２月の第三土曜日を香里天風会の越年会に当てている。
朝９時から通常の日曜行修を行い、１１時から越年行事に入り、一部が天風先生の講演テープを聴く会、２部が鍋を囲んでの懇親会である。
講演テープは、月始めの月例会では通常時間の関係で聞き難い長いテープを聴くようにしており、２時間２５分の相当長いものであった。
題は「十牛訓解明」。十牛訓、
十牛図は中国の宗代に書かれた禅の修行過程を牛に例え説明した解説図であり、尋牛、
見跡、見牛、得牛、牧牛、騎牛帰家、忘牛存人、人牛倶忘、返本還源、入テン垂手と十の図と説明からなっており、
それを天風会流に解説したお話で、昭和４０年・天風先生が９０歳の時に京都の補正行修会で講演したものである。
内容もさることながらとても９０歳とは思えない気力溢れる話しぶりで、
２時間半にも及ぶ長いテープであったが時間を全く感じさせない素晴らしいものであった。
二部はガラッと指向を変え、香里園駅前のちゃんこ屋で、先ほど聴いた先生の教えなどコロッと忘れ、
ちゃんこ鍋と焼酎に舌づつみをうっていた。出来の悪い子（弟子）ほど可愛い・・・？、と、苦笑しながら許してくれる事を信じて・・。
Yesterday, it was the Yue-Nen party of the Kori Tenpukai.
We call it the year-end party, not the year-end party, but the New Year’s Eve party, which is held on the third Saturday of December every year.
We had the usual Sunday service at 9:00 am and started the Yuejian event at 11:00 am. Part of the party was to listen to a tape of Dr. Tenpou’s lecture and part of the party was to get to know each other over a pot.
The tape of the speech was a long one, two hours and 25 minutes long, which was difficult to listen to because of the normal time of the monthly meeting at the beginning of the month.
The title is “Elucidating the Ten Cows”. The Ten Oxen.
The Ten Bulls is an explanation of the process of Zen training written by the Chinese sect reigns, comparing it to an ox.
It consists of ten figures and explanations, including the following: scenic spots, seeing oxen, gaining oxen, maki oxen, returning oxen, forgetting oxen, forgetting oxen, returning oxen, returning oxen, and entering oxen.
This is a story about the Tenpukai style, which he gave in 1965 when he was 90 years old at the Correctional Goshuikai in Kyoto.
He was so full of energy that it was hard to believe that he was 90 years old, not to mention the content.
It’s a long tape, two and a half hours long, but it’s a great one that doesn’t feel like time at all.
In the second part of the show, I changed my focus and went to a chanko shop in front of the Korinoen station, forgetting about what I had just heard from my teacher.
They were eating chanko nabe and shochu. The less good he is, the prettier he is…? I hope you’ll forgive me with a bitter smile…
