似玉蔵深石
休将故眼看
一朝良匠別
方見宝光寒
In English
- Like jade hidden deep inside a stone
- do not judge it with your old eyes
- one day a fine craftsman splits it open
- and its cool, precious light is seen
- Meaning
- Once a skilled craftsman splits the stone, the jade hidden inside shows its cool light. Old habits of looking will miss that worth, so asking someone with a good eye to take a look could be the step that reveals it.
- What to do today
- Pick one thing you use every day and think of a different way to use it.
- A word from the capybara
- Something that looks like a plain rock might be sparkly on the inside.
The explanations added by each temple differ. The poems and fortunes follow an Edo-period printed edition.
