花見
昨日、今日と朝６時半起床。目覚めと同時に「我は今、力と勇気と信念とを持って甦り・・・・」と天風道の「甦りの誦句」を黙称しながら、寝床の上でひとり按摩、その後、感謝念で布団をあげ洗顔の後、庭に出てプラナヤマ呼吸、呼吸操錬、統一式運動、積極体操を行い、爽やかな気分で食卓に向かう。定刻より少し早く家をでて速足で駅へ、勿論歩く時は「歩きながらの呼吸法」。中々優秀な天風会員である。これが１年３６５日続けば金さん銀さんくらいはいけるか
も・・・。
何時もの電車より１・２本早いのに乗り、一つ手前の「天満橋」駅で下車。天満橋を渡って大川端を歩き、９時３分前に会社着。
そう・・、桜につられての天満橋駅下車である。大川端の桜は７・８分咲き。明日、明後日の土日が満開であろう。それにしても今年の桜は見事である。開花と同時に花冷えとなった為か、花びらが何となく凛として、活きが良いのである。昨日、今日の小生の如くである。一寸調子に乗りすぎか・・・・。
Yesterday and today, I got up at 6:30 a.m. As soon as I wake up, I silently chant the “Rebirth Chant” of the Heavenly Wind Path, “I am now reborn with strength, courage, and conviction…”, and then I lay on the bed to massage myself, and afterwards, I lift the futon in gratitude, wash my face, and go out into the garden to do pranayama breathing, breathing exercises, unified exercises, and vigorous exercises. I left the house a little earlier than the scheduled time and went to the train station on my fast feet, and of course, when I walked, I did “breathing while walking”. He is a very good member of Tenpou. If this goes on for a year and 365 days, it’ll be about gold and silver.

I took the train one or two trains earlier than usual, and got off at “Tenmabashi” station. I crossed the Tenmabashi Bridge and walked around Okawabata, arriving at the office just before 9:03.
That’s right, I got off at Tenmabashi Station with the cherry blossoms. The cherry blossoms in Okawabata are 7 or 8 minutes in bloom. It will be in full bloom tomorrow and the Saturday and Sunday after tomorrow. Nevertheless, this year’s cherry blossoms are magnificent. Perhaps because the flowers cooled as soon as they bloomed, the petals were somehow dignified and lively. It’s just like me yesterday and today. A little too much….
