がんばれ、日本。がんばれ、東北。
いまこそ日本が一丸となって、一人ひとりが出来ることを。
(英国・インディペンデント紙一面より︶
以下はSOTO禅インターナショナルで出しているコメントです。
The recent Magnitude 9.0 earthquake that occurred off the coast of Miyagi Prefecture was of a scale that none of us have ever experienced, and was followed in quick succession by powerful aftershocks that extended across many regions of Japan.
Further, the large tsunami that descended upon the Pacific coastline of the Tohoku region in the wake of the earthquake caused severe damage and much loss of life.
We wish to offer our sympathies to all of those who have been affected by this disaster, and express our sincerest condolences for the victims who lost their lives.
Many people remain stranded without relief, and it is our hope that as many as possible will be rescued without delay.
The staff and members of Soto Zen International declare that we are willing to provide our tireless support to the people in those areas to the greatest extent possible, for as long as we are needed.

このたびの東北地方太平洋沖地震においては、宮城県沖で発生したＭ9．0というこれまでに経験したことの無い規模の地震をはじめ、大きな地震が各地で立て続けに発生しました。
また、地震に伴い、太平洋沿岸を中心に大津波が押し寄せ甚大な被害となっています。
まずは、被災された皆様にお見舞い申し上げ、犠牲となられた方々に謹んで弔意を表します。
未だ救助されずに取り残されている多くの方が、一人でも多く、一刻も早く救出されることを願います。
スタッフ、会員ともども、まずは被災地の求めに沿った可能な限りの支援を惜しまないことを表明いたします。

貞昌院では11日、プラムヴィレッジで行われているプラクティス﹁Sangha Gathering in Teishoin﹂が開催されました。
前半は曹洞宗式の本尊上供、大震災で犠牲となられた方々の慰霊、被災された皆様のお見舞いの心をこめて祈願法要を営み、そして後半はプラムヴィレッジ式で並修いたしました。
ティク・ナット・ハン師からもメッセージが届いています。
*Dear friends in Japan,*
*As we contemplate the great number of people who have died in this tragedy,
we may feel very strongly that we ourselves, in some part or manner, also
have died.*
*The pain of one part of humankind is the pain of the whole of humankind.
And the human species and the planet Earth are one body. What happens to one
part of the body happens to the whole body.*
*An event such as this reminds us of the impermanent nature of our lives. It
helps us remember that what's most important is to love each other, to be
there for each other, and to treasure each moment we have that we are alive.
This is the best that we can do for those who have died: we can live in such
a way that they continue, beautifully, in us.*
*Here in France and at our practice centers all over the world, our brothers
and sisters will continue to chant for you, sending you the energy of peace,
healing and protection. Our prayers are with you.*
*Thich Nhat Hanh*
