Shakuhachi : Taniguchi Yoshinobu | |
Bosatsu was composed by Taniguchi Yoshinobu in 1995 especially for the 2.7' shakuhachi. It contains elements of goreika (Songs of Pilgrimage), koden honkyoku, komori uta (lullabies) and original compositions. "Bosatsu" is an abbreviation for the Sanskrit word "Bodhisattva", a title given to someone of great compassion who seeks to help others reach enlightenment while simultaneously undergoing his or her own spiritual training. Satori or "enlightenment" is an experience of the way to rise above the cycle of life and death. One who works hard to lead a life of love and compassion is a bosatsu. Enlightenment and happiness are always close by and located inside oneself. When we, as incomplete human beings, follow this path in our hearts, we feel great joy in helping each other. Moving one's conscious mind out of the subjective self-centered world and empathetically putting oneself in another's place to experience what they experience from their viewpoint takes much energy and will power, but is one way to create a spiritual bond. Then there is satori; then one is a bosatsu; then there is joy. Being able to have true compassion for all sentient beings is one step on the path to Buddhahood. | ||
