Grudge


[Chapter 79 / English Translation] - click the line to watch the related video.
When you pacify a big grudge, there is always a remaining grudge.

How can you call it good?

That's why the sage takes the contract, but doesn't ask the person to pay.

Heaven's Tao has no favouritism. It is always on the side of a good person.


Rapid Decoded
Don't try to ignore your grudge. Just accept it as it is.

Even if you have a grudge, don't feel bad about it because there is neither good nor bad.

You can do whatever you want in your hologram (=the world). You can even make a wish (="the contract"), but you should not try to act direct to make it come true. The feeling of dissatisfaction, or a grudge, will block the natural flow of Tao the energy.

Tao, which circulate through all the four corners of your hologram, doesn't judge. There is no "favouritism". All you have to do is to believe that Tao is always on your side because true You are Tao itself.

Read Yama Uba the Zen play


☞«Ju-on 呪怨» signifies "curse - grudge" in Japanese. Do they hold a grudge against someone, curse him, and wait for the best moment of revenge? In general and in reality, no. The happy-go-lucky islanders in Far East forget things easily whether they are good ones or bad ones. But we adore the stories of those evil spirits who have carried their grudge into the world of the dead. Since the ancient time of Kojiki 古事記 chronicle, we are afraid of "that world あの世" but fascinated by those who can spiritually travel between "this world この世" and "that world あの世". «Ju-on the Grudge» is now available on Nintendo Wii. Well, at least we can "experience" it virtually.

☞Did Godzilla destroy Tokyo with a grudge? As a sort of revenge? Human beings tested a hydrogen bomb while it was asleep. According to Dr Kyohei Yamane in the original film «Godzilla / Gojira ゴジラ» released in 1954, it was a gigantic animal of two million years ago, in the middle of the evolution from an aquatic reptile to a land mammal. A nuclear experiment woke it up. In Akira Kurosawa's «Ikiru» 黒澤明「生きる」, was the man living with a grudge against work? He was a bureaucrat. While Godzilla left the body in contaminated Tokyo Bay, the man left a tiny park for local children. Ishiro Honda
本多 猪四郎, the director of «Godzilla», had once worked as an assistant under Kurosawa.
