    About this ebook

    "The reason why we exist here, in this present moment, is to draw out and plentifully express love... We were born so that we ourselves, and all the people around us, might know true and lasting happiness. Despite what we may think, it is not difficult to express love. All we need to do is wish, from the bottom of our hearts, to love ourselves and love others. This heartfelt desire, in and of itself, will cause love to well up from within. Not only that, when we are able to continually manifest love with our whole being, no one will be able to invade our hearts with violence, nor will we ever feel that that we have anything to lose. Even if we are living in the midst of poverty, war, or disease, if we continue to manifest love, our inner dignity can never be shaken. No one can teach us to express love, for it is not a power that is acquired from the outside. It is a power that wells up from within. The power to express love is the power to draw out and manifest our own life-energy." — Masami Saionji

    私たちが、今ここに存在しているのは、自らの愛を... 精一杯表現するためです。私たちは、自分を含め、周りの誰もが幸せになってゆくために、生まれてきているのです。愛の表現は、決して難しいことではありません。自分を心から愛そう、そして人々を心から愛したいと思うことが私たちに必要なすべてなのです。ただそう思うだけで愛は湧き上がります。また、心から愛を表現しつづけてゆけるならば、あなたを侵す人もいなければ、自分が失う何ものもないのです。たとえ貧困、戦争、病気の真っただ中にいようとも、愛を表現しつづけてゆくならば、私たちの内なる尊厳性は決して揺るいでしまうものではありません。誰も愛(外部からは得られない力)を表現することを教えることは出来ません。それは、心の中でこんこんと湧き上がるパワーだからです。愛を表現するパワーは、自らの生命エネルギーを引き出し、現わす力なのです。— 西園寺昌美

      Activating the Power of Love

      愛の力を自分で引き出す

      Without exception, all human beings are born for the purpose of manifesting love. When we go to the root of life, ignoring all that is temporary or nonessential, what remains is love. Love is all there is—the only true, unchanging existence.

      人類はすべて一人残らず、自らが愛を表現するために生まれてきています。私たちが人生における本質的でないもの、または一時的なものをすべて切り捨て、その根本を突きつめてみる時、残るものは愛であるということに気づかされます。ただ一つの真実、変わらずにあるもの、愛こそがすべてなのです。

      More than anything else, what each of us needs to do now is to love ourselves and love others, forgive ourselves and forgive others, and express only love, sincerity, and forgiveness in all our words and actions. Soon, everything else that we thought we needed will be rapidly taken away.

      今、私たちに必要なことは、自分を愛し、人を愛し、自分を赦し、人を赦す、愛と真と赦しの言行なのです。そうすることで、それ以外のこれまで自分が必要としていたものは、どんどん取り去られてゆきます。

      From moment to moment, each of us needs to consciously observe ourselves and ask ourselves these questions: Here and now, am I giving expression to love? Is my heart filled with love for myself, my family, my friends and acquaintances, my society, and all human beings? Am I showering love upon all animals, insects, and plants—on water, air, the sun, the earth, the mountains, and
