Life in which you walk together with Amida, There's no way that it can't be just right. Nothing to boast about, nothing to feel bad about, Nothing above, nothing below.Įven the day and month that you die, Even they are just right.
Whether you go to hell or to the Pure Land, Wherever you go is just right. The life that you have tread is neither good nor bad, For you, it is just right. Happiness, unhappiness, joy and even sorrow, For you, they are just right. Whether poor or rich, Your parents, your children, your daughter-in-law your grandchildren, They are, all for you, just right. Your face, body, name, surname, For you, they are just right. In his book "River of Fire, River of Water" he explains the concept of the Japanese equivilent of the concept of "suchness" which is called sono-mama or kono mama simply meaning life "as is" or "just right as it is" through a popular Shin poem: Taitetsu Unno is a modern day Shin master.
