Zen and Chi Gong (PART 3 OF 3)
【Himiko's Monologue】
Wow! ... what an extreme life style!
Can you believe that a man could live on the pillar for 39 years?
Do you really believe that a man cut off his left-arm to show his sincerity?
As you know, I desperately want to meet my better half.
But when I meet a man like Saint Simeon or Huike, and he proposes to marry me, I'd rather remain single.
In any case, I've never met my "Romeo"---a decent man in my life.
How come I'm always a loner?
I wish I could meet a nice gentleman at the library in my town as Diane met Kato.
Well, they say, there is a way where there is a will.
I hope Kato will write another interesting article.
So please come back to see me.
Have a nice day!

Hi, I'm June Adames.
You might wonder why Saint Simeon decided to live on the top of the pillar.
Well...an ever-increasing number of people came to see him for prayers and advice.
This left him little if any time for his private austerities.
So he decided to climb up the pillar and formed a small platform at the top so that he could remain undisturbed.
Since he couldn't escape the world horizontally, he tried to escape it vertically.
For sustenance, small boys from the nearby village would climb up the pillar and pass him small parcels of flat bread and goats' milk.
In any case, to an ordinary man, living at the top of pillar is unthinkable.
If you determine to do the same nowadays, you are more than likely to be considered as the most foolish person in the world.
