He came back and he ate his food, his meal, from this bowl. So we do not put anything but rice in this bowl, but spiritually speaking it is so. So in this case, as old monks in Japan do, it was better to break your eggs and put it in a small bowl and put rice from this bowl. You know, like this. And we should eat from this bowl. I didn't explain it, so that is my fault.

In such a case, when someone makes a mistake, he should bow to Buddha and to the man who is responsible for the kitchen. This is my fault. Not only this kitchen, but also various rooms where the officers and someone who is responsible for the room, we have to bow three times with incense. It takes time. If it is their heads, it will take. You will spend whole morning. Almost all doctors do not know what he did.

[02:15]

If someone calls with, No, this is not, he made some mistake. So, I should bow to Buddha and to the kitchen, and to the reverend Katagiri, and to Jiro. Spirit is speaking. This is how we monastic life. Everyone is responsible for his own position, and he is absolute. Absolute. Absolute. So, even the temple master cannot say anything, but you do.

[03:19]

If you observe our rules, we cannot say anything. Even though someone makes mistake, we cannot say anything. The man who is responsible for you should say something. No one else can say anything to anyone, unless he is not responsible for the person, for the work. In this way, the monastic life is carried on. So, there is no problem at all. Of course, we make many mistakes.

[04:22]

So, when we make mistake, we should bow. We should apologize. That's what we should do. If we have no ego, it is not so difficult. So, I will apologize to all of you for lack of consideration. Excuse me. I bow to the Buddha, and I bow to the Sangha.
