(With a heart of true sincerity) This piece was written in commemoration of the 150th Anniversary of the Founding of Tenrikyo by Miki Nakayama in 1838. In the style of the Mei-an tradition of honkyoku, as practiced by the Fuke sect of Zen Buddhism, "Makoto Shinjitsu" expresses the wish that our actions be in constant harmony with our innermost spiritual feelings. It was composed in the Honkyoku tradition of trying to find the one perfect sound to cause world peace. This also involves the attempt to become a Boddbisatva, and trying to wait until the rest of the world enters Nirvana, before entering oneself. ICHI ON-BUTTSU. | ||
