Great fortune
七宝浮図塔
高峰頂上安
衆人皆仰望
莫作等閑看
In English
- A pagoda adorned with the seven treasures
- rests upon the summit of a high peak
- and everyone lifts their eyes to it
- so do not look on it as something ordinary
- Meaning
- The word that carries this poem sits in its last line: do not treat it as ordinary. A jeweled pagoda on a high peak draws every eye, yet the easy mistake is to stop noticing what is right in front of you, so handle the good things you already have with care.
- What to do today
- Put one thing you have kept working on where someone else can see it.
- A word from the capybara
- The tower is very tall, though looking up at it only costs a slightly stiff neck.
