正法眼蔵 辨道話（ １５１）
普段私達の視線は、前方へ向いてます
左右の目が、機能してる感じでしょうか
物事を、明瞭に捉えます
Our line of sight usually look forward.
It's like our left and right eyes are functioning.
We see things clearly.
椅子に坐る時、左右の腿を直角にしてみます
坐禅の足組みと同じです
左右の膝頭と左右両腿を、直角三角形にします
When sitting in a chair,
try to keep your right and left thighs at right angles to each other
This is the same as the zazen leg-stand.
Make a right triangle between the right and left kneecaps and the right and left thighs.
左後方と右後方、それと前方が釣り合います
Left rear, right rear, and front are balanced.
身体の感覚、筋肉の感覚
Sense of body and muscles
これを、視線として感じてみます
I'm going to feel this as a line of sight.
目のように、明瞭には見えません
Not as clear as the eye
しかし、視野は広いし安定してます
But the vision is wide and stable.
そして何より、優しく見る事が出来ます
And above all, you can look at it gently.
