  経文や バイブル百度読むとても 心の糧とならじと人いふ
 55  

It is said reading
A hundred times
Sutras or the Bible
Does not make
Food for the soul.

#1, S6-436A
 
    紙やペン 言葉のみにて人間を 救はんとする愚かなる世や
 56   What a foolish
World it is in which
Human beings seek to be
Saved only through
Paper, pen, and words.
#2, S6-436B
 
It is a brain-dead world
That tries to save a human life
Only by means
0f paper,
Pen and language.

From disease!
Come to me. providing

Rejuvenate all who seek.
