> continued,

↑ What's up with you, bandit ！ ？
I've been stingy with your threads and the way you respond, but
I think you're basically a nice guy.
You have a few outbursts.
Well, you've decided to treat me like air, so that's fine, but
then you don't have to be so sarcastic.
The same goes for the emphasis in this thread on anything and everything.

I'm all for senior people having fun in life, but
I'm the kind of person who won't shut up if someone breaks the rules.
You should start a pilgrimage topic ？.

You are so desperate because you are not being taken care of. I'm amused.

I don't think he cares about you when he writes "continue" ？.

＞ You can walk on a road that rises and falls for 6 hours

The maximum of 6 hours is actually the total time you spend walking in a day, and some days you can spend as much as 8 or 9 hours outside from inn to inn. In other words, there is a lot of time to rest, visit temples, have lunch, etc., and if you do it in small increments, you will not be so tired.

＞ You can walk on paths that rise and fall

This also happens once every two or three days when there is a pass to cross, but otherwise you walk mostly on level ground. Even so, it would be absurd to suddenly go on a walking pilgrimage with a dull body that does nothing on a regular basis, so I walk for an hour or two once a week for the rest of my life in the area, and I have been increasing my walking time since about two months before I left for Japan.

If I get sick or have an accident in Shikoku, my trip will be cancelled and I will have wasted my money. Therefore, at my age, my wish is to live a healthy life and pass away at the end of it without causing any inconvenience to others.

It is true that happiness comes from good health. The other day on the news in Japan, they said that the average healthy life expectancy for a male is 72 years old. I am sure that you have exceeded the average ？ I would be very happy if I did too. However, when you spend time walking, do you ever think about or see the enlightened world? Walking is one kind of meditation.

By the way, this is a bit off topic, but when you withdraw money from Union Bank through ATMs in Japan, I saw on the internet that you can do it through ATMs at 7-Eleven. Is there such a thing, or do you have to withdraw at a different location? I would appreciate it if you could share your experience in this regard.

＞ When you spend time walking, do you ever think about or see the world of enlightenment

In my case, there is no such lofty "enlightenment". I just walk around in a "daze". However, former Prime Minister Naoto Kan said, "If you just walk around for a few days, your mind will become empty. I know it is far from "enlightenment," but it also makes me feel as if I am resetting all the thoughts that have been stored deep in my mind. Maybe I am meditating.

I didn't understand the words "colorless void, void void of color, colorless void, void of color" in the Heart Sutra at first, but now I understand it a little better thanks to NHK's commentary programs.

Whenever I need yen during my travels, I stop by a post office with a sign attached "Yucho Bank" and use a Union Bank debit card to withdraw yen from the ATM. Convenience stores have recently begun to dot the main roads in Shikoku, but post offices are suddenly more common and I usually use them. Unlike regular trips, the pilgrimage routes are more remote, so the post offices, which are more closely connected to the daily lives of the people, are more reliable.
