Social
This is a personal essay dedicated to the beloved Sendatsu by a great scholar of the history of religion. Shiko Munakata who lived in the spirit of independence and self-reliance without needing a teacher or disciple, Ken Domon who made a "journey of conversion at the risk of his life" from the children of Chikuho to the Buddha statue of the ancient capital Nara, Takeshi Umehara who pursued his own philosophy, historical view and human view instead of the framework of borrowed things, and Hayao Kawai who worked on the difficult project of bridging between the West and the East and between science and religion. Although the world and the period in which they lived are different, the attractiveness of each is described in deep brush strokes while discovering what they have in common in the core part.
