素晴らしいのは今年春に出版された「人は愛するに足り、真心は信ずるに足る」で、アフガニスタンの無医地区で四半世紀も医療活動を続け、さらに井戸掘りまで黙々と続けている中村哲さんと澤地久枝が対談したものだ。正しい物の考え方とか行動規範があるとすれば、こうした人のことだとつくづく思う。政治もメディアもそれを実践していないということがしっかり語られている。
もう一冊余興に読んでいるのが「巡礼コメディ旅日記」で、これは友人のお薦めだ。大手術の後自分を見直そうと巡礼の道を歩き出したドイツのコメディアンがそのマイペースな旅を多分に饒舌に綴る内容で、その中でちょっと面白かった喩えがひとつ、ざっと以下のようなこと。
神とは沢山の賞を受けた傑作映画のようなもの、教会組織や制度はその上映館に過ぎない。それも、田舎の古ぼけた映画館。僕はいつかその映画のオリジナル完全版が、映像・音響とも最高品質の３Ｄで見られるようになったらと思う。
I resumed the chorus exercise in the weekend, and confirmed that I could see the conductor while tracing the score in hand without the help of glasses. In parallel, I started reading books, too. I had borrowed 2 books from the library and need to accelerate reading them before the deadline.
Notably wonderful was “The Promise with Afghan – People Are Sufficient to Love and the Sincerity is Sufficient to Believe”. It is the book released this spring by Hisae Sawachi interviewing Dr. Tetsu Nakamura who devoted more than 25 years in providing medical services in the areas with no doctors in Afghanistan and even digging wells taciturnly for the people to survive. I speak out he is the real example who thinks and acts on the right discipline. The media and the regime in general do not perform so in contrast to him.
Another book I read for fun is “Ich bin dann mal weg” by Hape Kerkeling as one of my friends recommended it. A German comedian sets to the pilgrimage from St. Jean Pied de Paul to Compostela after recovering from his serious surgery, and he talkatively writes about the journey of his own style.
One interesting metaphor in the book to remark below:
The God is like an excellent movie that achieved number of awards, and the churches and their system are merely like the cinemas, or more precisely those aged in countries. I wish someday we could see its original unabridged version with the superb quality of the vision and the sound in 3D.
