Did life begin on your birthday?
To begin with, where did you start?
People use their date of birth for divination.
Sanmei-gaku,
Western astrology,
and Four Pillars of Destiny as well.
The day you were born.
The time you were born.
The place you were born.
From there,
they begin to read the person that is 'you'.
But, at one point,
I became unsure of just one thing.
Where were you until that day?
We
did not suddenly appear on our birthday.
In our mother's womb,
we were already alive.
Our hearts were beating,
our bodies were growing,
and time was passing.
Yet, when we try to understand a human being,
for some reason, that time alone disappears.
In that,
I felt a strange void.
Before we were given a name.
Before we became someone's daughter.
Before we had a role.
Before being loved.
Before being hurt.
Before being expected of.
Still,
when I had not yet become anyone.
What was there,
at that time?
I call that
center of life before becoming anyone[[phN_open]][[phN_close]]
as the "fetal zodiac".
I interpret human beings through two layers.
One is the conventional Sanmeigaku
The three pillars after birth.
Me within my family.
Me within society.
Me at work.
Me, wanting to be loved.
Me, becoming someone.
And, one more thing.
Existing before those roles,
the center of life.
The me living through three pillars, and
the center found in the fetal zodiac.
Those two layers,
I see them simultaneously.
Why do you try so hard?
Why do you stay even though you dislike it?
Why do you hurt the ones you love?
Why, even when you feel secure,
do you look for something else?
What lies beneath your strength?
What lies beneath your kindness?
Oka's Sanmeigaku is,
a form of Sanmeigaku designed to solve the mystery of being human.
It reads not only the light,
but also the fear, the attachment, the loneliness, and the love.
Because these were things,
that person needed in order to live.
Here, I will now write about,
the 60 Kanshi that solve the mystery of life,
as we move forward.
The 60 sexagenary cycle,
not as 60 types of personalities,
but within a single human being,
60 fears,
60 ways of survival,
60 faces
I read them as.
While living through the three pillars,
do not lose your center.
While becoming someone,
do not forget the self that is no one.
And in the end,
who on earth are we?
I will pursue that mystery
through the 60 sexagenary cycles.
