Original song. Audience are completely absorbed into the music. In other words, audience is become one with concert. At that time, audience forget themselves. At that time, you can enjoy to listen to the music, becoming one with music. And renew the adornments of the way of enlightenment. At that time, let's imagine great mood, great mood of circumstances increases gradually. Completely circumstances is decorated by the so-called wonderful music. I don't know what. The vast expanse of being so-called music or beautiful rhythm for music and song.

[01:07]

I don't know. Then at that time, when all classes of all beings in ten directions of the universe, all together at one time being bright and pure in body and mind, realize the stage of absolute emancipation and reveal the original aspect. Audience enjoy themselves. Performer enjoy himself. Piano enjoy itself. In other words, three comes, three activities, words, thoughts, deeds. Enjoy themselves. Becoming one with piano, performance, pianist, and audience,

[02:19]

everything. So at that time, there is nothing. Just music exists. Concert exists. But never all being, all things absorb into it. At that time, the concert is magnificent. Magnificent. That's why Dogen says, when all classes of all beings in the ten directions of the universe, all together at one time being bright and pure in body and mind, realize the stage of absolute emancipation, performer emancipate himself. In other words, performer forget himself because performer become one with piano. At that time, performer can play the piano concert. At that

[03:24]

time, performer can reach towards the soul of the composers, music composers. When the performer reach towards the soul of composer, it is called when performer become one with piano, forgetting himself. There is no performer. Then, realize the stage of absolute emancipation and reveal the original aspect. All things reveal their original aspect. No form, so-called piano, so-called performer, so-called music, Bach, Bach, one song, no form, just concert, dynamic working, so-called music concert. At that time, all things together come to realization in themselves of the true

[04:31]

enlightenment of the Buddha. At that time, you say, wow, how wonderful, say how wonderful. But when you during listening to the music, during absorbing into the music, you forget also how wonderful it is, just becoming one with music. That is Buddha's world. Then all things, at that time, all things together come to realization in themselves of the true enlightenment of the Buddha. Utilize the Buddha body. At that time, performer is not performer. Performer is Buddha body. Performer is, in other words, piano. Performer is performance. Performer is Bach. Performer is audience. Performer is music itself. Performer is concert

[05:35]

itself. It is called, that's why I say Katagiri is not Katagiri. While Katagiri tried to play the piano, it is not music concert. It is called ensemble line. It is called working on the ensemble line. Zazen also, in the third or fourth session, you work in the world of Zazen on the ensemble lines. Get up, sit, get up, sit. At that time, it's pretty hard to follow the schedule of Zazen. Utilize the Buddha body, immediately leap the confines of this personal enlightenment. At that time, you cannot be realized, conscious of, I am not the performer. You cannot.

[06:44]

You cannot perceive, I am not the performer. Because you are already not performer. You are already pianist, piano, concert, audience, and so on. You cannot. So, immediately leap the confines of this personal enlightenment. Sit properly beneath the kingly tree of enlightenment. That Zazen is called Shikantaza. It is called Shikantaza. Just sit. So, just sit is not just sit, okay? Just sit. Shikantaza is very strict, very sharp, very serious, very transparent, sincere, sincerity.

[07:48]

Turn simultaneously the great and utterly incomparable dharma field. Then, at that time, you start, performer can start to learn the wonderful incomparable dharma field. Then, at that time, you can create wonderful concert, okay? But you never audience everything absorbed into it, okay? That is so-called great concert. At that time, you are called great pianist. At that time, you are called Buddha. And expand, expand the ultimate and profound prajna free from all human agency. At that time, okay, there is no better way to be free from human agency

[09:01]

more than to become one with piano, music, forgetting performer himself, forgetting the three comes, forgetting comes, forgetting audience, creating great vast expanse of music. That is best way. There is no better way. Okay. Maybe, maybe not. You don't understand, but I hope, I hope you will understand little bit what Buddha is like, okay? According to my own word, Buddha is infinite possibility, okay? Infinite possibility. I like this word, infinite possibility.

[10:23]

Infinite possibility. Moment after moment, you can create wonderful concert, okay? Nevertheless, it is not good enough, okay? Moment after moment, you create wonderful concert, okay? Becoming one with truth. In other words, in the realm of infinite possibility, I think, you can have vast dream, vast beautiful dream, okay? Dream. That vast beautiful dream is called bodhisattva vow, so-called I save all sentient beings, okay? That's very big beautiful dream, okay? When you take one step forward, okay? Within the confines of the one step, okay? It is not one step. If you understand it is just one step, it is not, there is no dream, okay? There is no ideal, okay?

[11:46]

Within the confines of the one step, you should have beautiful vast dream, so-called ideal, okay? Saving all sentient beings, helping others, okay? Then, we are always chanting, I vow to save all sentient beings. That's very beautiful dream you should have, okay?
