49. No heart

[Chapter 49 / English Translation] - click the line to watch the related video.
The sage always has no heart.

He takes people's heart as his own.

I think something good is good.

I think something not good is good, too.

I attain goodness.

I think someone faithful is faithful.

I think someone not faithful is faithful, too.

I attain faith.


When the sage stays in the world under the sky, he has no heart.

When he makes the world under the sky, he has no mind.

People all open their ears and eyes, but the sage closes all of them.


Rapid Decoded
You should know that your own self is part of your hologram.

You and non-you are the same thing. They are "yourself under your control" and "yourself beyond your control". Other people are "yourself beyond your control" like your intestines.

Good is good, but it is useless to judge.

It's because no good, or bad, is good, too.

When you don't judge, you are one with Tao. "Goodness" is part of you though it is not wise to use the word.

If you have faith in something, it makes it easier for you to use Dark Depth Female and change your hologram (=the world). It doesn't matter what you believe.

If you don't have faith in anything, it is all right, too. Whether you believe something or not, you project your hologram, in other words, you create the world in front of you. Probably, you create your frustration, too.

Whether you have faith or not, you project your hologram. The difference is whether you remember the fact or not. If you forget it, naturally you create doubt unnecessarily.


Although true You are Tao itself, your own self including mind and body belongs to the sphere of your hologram (="the world under the sky"). You should know your "heart" is an illusion.

When you "make the world under the sky" (=project your hologram), true You have "no mind". Mind, along with body, is part of your hologram like clouds in the sky.

No matter how much other people use "their ears and eyes", you should not rely on them. So-called objective information is truly misleading.

Read Yama Uba the Zen play


☞«Kokoro こころ» is translated as "heart" or "mind". Soseki Natsume 夏目漱石 was probably the first Japanese novelist to realize the cruelty of a modern society. He had written about it even before Japan truly embraced modernism. Your kokoro suffers when you are forced to judge and decide by yourself. Some people are very happy to follow others. Now more than ever, young Japanese need this book of Natsume. Mercy 38-4 and No form 40-17 also have little articles on Natsume Soseki's «Kokoro».

Help Wanted
-"Is a geisha truly a p,.........?"

  No, it means "artist", literally. She
  is an artist of the Taoist way of
  living.

-"What Does Nintendo mean?"


-"Frustrated?"


  Why don't you think the other way 
  round?

-"I am not happy about how I look."

  There are a few things to think
  about.

-"Are you scared of seeing your
  reports?"

  To forget about statistics.



☞Please look at the Kanji / Chinese character in the photo on the top of this page. This Kanji character 心 is pronounced [kokoro] or [shin], depending on the context. The confusing thing is that the Kanji 心 [kokoro / shin] is translated as "heart" or "mind" in English, depending on the convenience of the translator. It seems to me that the definition of the word "kokoro" covers all but material things.
