Today's Tao
Thus, you can last long. (Ch.44)
True You are Tao.
Therefore, you are eternal.
In Buddhism, we call this «Fusho fumetsu / 不生不滅».
No life no vanishing. (No life. No end of life.)
Dogen says:
"Future is past and present".
(Juki 授記, «Shobogenzo»)
Life is a form of a hologram.
Vanishing is a form of a hologram, too.
They are part of the wheel of manifestation 法輪 [horin].
Don't be attached to either life nor the end of it.

Tao answers your question!
☞Kitaro's album «Onbashira» is the name of a traditional Shintoist ritual. «Onbashira 御柱» means "The sacred pillars". The matsuri festival takes place once every six years. They drop the huge and heavy trunk of a fir tree (about 17 meters long, one meter in diameter, 10 tons) at the edge of a cliff top (about 35 degrees , and 100 meters long). People ride the log down the slope. If you want to get your adrenalin going, you can go to Suwa, Nagano, Japan, instead of Pamplona for the run with the bulls, for change. Well, in six years time. Beautiful Lake Suwa will be always there, waiting for you. Enjoy magnificent Mt Fuji over Suwa Lake as millions of Samurai did. Here is Onbashira official site in English and Japanese.
