I am sick of Trump. トランプ大統領にうんざりしています。
There is no truth in his world. 彼の世界に真実はない。
He has only strong ego. 彼には彼だけがある。
This world is not equal and there is no justice.
この世界は平等では無く、正義もない。
I understood it since I started living in the United States.
と、理解したのはアメリカ生活を始めてからです。
I am very very fortunate to be with ダン蔵.
私はダン蔵と一緒にいれて幸運です。
He understands that the world is not fair and does his job.
彼はこの世がフェアじゃないことを理解し、自分の仕事を全うしてます。
I am distracted by the daily news.
私は毎日のニュースで気が散ります。
I’m sure ダン蔵 has a deep understanding of Suzuki Daisetsu‘s Zen Buddhism.
きっとダン蔵は、深く鈴木大拙の善を理解しているのだ。
What an interesting connection, as lately I’ve been reading about Helen Mirra, for whom walking has been a conceptual subject in her work and mentioned Suzuki’s teachings, and influence among others, for John Cage of course…I shall learn more, that you.
Suzuki taught at Colombia University. He wrote most of his books in English. And then later, those books were translated into Japanese. He had an American wife. I wonder He might be more famous in English-speaking countries than in Japan.
