Seiryu-Miharashi
Dear Friends and Students
Nobody in this world can predict what happens in the next minute! Yet we “Aspire and Action” in our life journey. Both “Aspire and Action” are good else we become idle and complacent! However, we become “Apprehensive” of our “Aspire and Action”. This is the cause of worry! Personally, I did this slip-up multiple times and still not able to practice well! We all have to learn how to be detached yet work on our actions. It is a tough task but we all need to attempt!
In 2010, I was in Japan for a short trip! We heard about a Train station named “Seiryu-Miharashi”, located on the Nishikigawa Seiryu line in Southern Japan. We all got excited to hear about the station. This station does not contain an entrance, exit or a ticket machine! It has just one small platform and shelter. It is only accessible to passengers passing by by train. It is adjacent to the Nishiki River and the surrounding forest.
You might be wondering why such station is built where it is not helping any habitant nor connecting to another hop. This is built to make passengers get down for 10 minutes and get arrested to the beautiful natural view. Please check the photographs at

Often in our journey, many of us are missing to construct such rail stations and platforms. We are continuously driving (for money, position, comfort, name and fame) only to reach the final cleaning point- Carriage and Wagon (C&W) Yards. By this time, the train has already become unclean, full of garbage. The yard staff cleans and services it for its next trip! Remember, the on-board staff makes sure that the train has been evacuated. The locomotive is detached from the rake. It takes a shower of lubrication and relaxes in the maintenance workshop so it can continue its duty next trip. In the next trip, the co-passengers are different, the direction is different and the goal itself is quite 180-degree different!! Hope you understand what this next trip in our life stands for?
If we understand the deeper meaning, the locomotive is our soul. All the co-passengers are our friends and relatives. Rake is our body! God inspects the all-under-slung parts of the locomotive, and reset the wheel sets. The quality depends on the performance of the previous journey we had! Hence “Seiryu-Miharashi Railway Platforms” are absolutely necessary in our journey!
When are you planning to build your Seiryu-Miharashi Railway Platform for your life journey? Remember no co-passenger accompanies you in your next journey!
