Makimono (scroll) with D\u014dkun<\/p><\/div>\n

The text that is read during chinkon gy\u014d<\/em> is called D\u014dkun<\/em>. It consists of Seiku<\/em> [\u8056\u53e5] (meditation), Seigan<\/em> [\u8a93\u9858] (oath), D\u014dkun<\/em> [\u9053\u8a13] (teaching of the way) and Shinj\u014d<\/em> [\u4fe1\u6761] (creed). (In Japanese D\u014din<\/em> one also read a section that is called Raihaishi<\/em>, in that case these text are collectively referred to as Ky\u014dten<\/em> [\u6559\u5178].) Below is a short explanation of these texts, as well as the official English version of them. At the bottom those that are interested can also find the original in Japanese, both in romaji<\/a> (our alphabet) and with kanji<\/a>\/hiragana<\/a>.<\/p>\n

About Seiku<\/h2>\n

This text is from the Dhammapada<\/a> (verses 160 & 165), which is one of the central texts in Zen Buddhism. Seiku<\/em> explains the importance of examining the self, to striving to discover the possibilities<\/span> within<\/span> the self, and<\/span> of aiming to cultivate the self.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

About Seigan<\/h2>\n

Seigan<\/em> expresses the mental attitudes to be applied in pursuing Shorinji Kempo, and the conviction to apply to the training. It explains the sort of resolve with which to strive when learning Shorinji Kempo.<\/p>\n

About D\u014dkun<\/h2>\n

D\u014dkun<\/em> explain how the human should act. It expresses in a concrete way what actions we as humans should do. [Concrete details for actions (living basics for kenshi).]
\n(This part is not translated in the English Shorinji Kempo Tokuhon [only in the Kongo Zen Tokuhon] and because of this not read that often in d\u014dj\u014d<\/em> outside of Japan.<\/p>\n

About Shinj\u014d<\/h2>\n

We reflect on the state of our own hearts and actions. and we renew our determination to put Shorinji Kempo into practice in our daily lives. [Outline of actual practice (norm for action).]<\/p>\n

Here is the official English version of D\u014dkun<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Seiku<\/h2>\n

Within self, my self finds recourse. Neglect my self, and to whom could I turn. Self is disciplined from within, the true and hard earned recourse.<\/p>\n

In doing evil, I contaminate myself. In not doing evil, I am pure. Purity and impurity come from within, and others cannot purify my heart.<\/p>\n

Seigan<\/h2>\n

In attaining this Art, we pledge to affirm the founders, to be honest with our teachers, to respect those ahead of us, to not disdain those behind us, to give as well as receive help, to cooperate, and to give ourselves to contributing to the Way.<\/p>\n

We resolve to settle with our pasts and practice with purely focused hearts as if we were newly born into this world.<\/p>\n

We pledge to train in this Art only to help people, never for personal reputation or profit.<\/p>\n

D\u014dkun<\/h2>\n

The path arises out of the heavens as the common ground on which all people can rely.<\/p>\n

Therefore those who gain this path should go forth on it, and should uphold it; to lose this path is immediately to lose one\u2019s bearings, so one should not depart from the path even for a moment.<\/p>\n

Given life in this world, one honors the human path by fulfilling it, and when soundly on the path of humanity one can stand and unite the glories of the heavens and the earth.<\/p>\n

But if one exists yet does not contribute a full measure of magnanimity, justice, loyalty, filial duty, and decorum, then although the body may be alive the heart is already dead, and this we should regard as stealing life.<\/p>\n

In essence, the human spirit is divine, the divine is the spirit; if there is no departure from the heart then there is no departure from the divine. Thus every motion and every stillness is witnessed by the divine, consequences attend every action, and nothing, not even a speck of hair, goes unaccounted.<\/p>\n

Therefore when we revere heaven and earth, respect the divine, honor ancestors, act dutifully to parents, obey the law, esteem teachers, love brothers and sisters, trust friends, bond as relatives, unite as neighbors, live in harmony as husbands and wives, support people in hardship, rescue people in emergencies, spread this teaching and lead others, follow the path with focused hearts, correct our excesses and refresh ourselves, and, ceasing our malign thoughts, perform all our good acts with faithful hearts, then though others may not notice, the divine knows immediately, and we stand to gain increased happiness, longer life, benefits to our descendants, decreased illness, and averted misfortune, each of these a blessing of Dharma<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Shinj\u014d<\/h2>\n

Mindful that our spirits come from Dharma<\/em> and our bodies from our parents, we acknowledge our debts and express our gratitude by applying ourselves to the full.<\/p>\n

We resolve to love these communities and these people, and through them to contribute to world peace and happiness.<\/p>\n

We resolve to become men and women of true courage, who love justice, respect humanity, act with decorum and defend peace.<\/p>\n

We strive toward constructing an ideal world by mastering the principles of this Art, strengthening ourselves mentally and physically, and sharing this purpose with others in mutual friendship, respect, and support.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

For those that are interested here is also the English version of the Raihaishi<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Raihaishi<\/h2>\n

Humbly, we revere Dharma<\/em>, the great and profound power of all space and time. Entangled in afflictions since time immemorial, we humbly and thoroughly repent our every transgression and failing. In these bodies for this life, and for future beyond, we devote ourselves to Buddha, Law and the Fellowship, and we seek to live by the profound teaching. We pray to be granted sound guidance and blesings.
\nIn devotion to Dharma<\/em><\/p>\n
