The latter chapter: The lullaby of Amida Buddha
“Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu. Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu.”
I, Kuya, was starting to recite Amida Bubtu Nenbutu letting my mouth do the talking, holding Ren and stroking her head.
“Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu. Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu.”
“What is it?”
Ren raised her face and asked.
“This is a word of protection. If I recite Namu Amida Butu, Amida Buddha will protect Ren, Kotaro, and your sister.”
“Really?”
I, once again recited Namu Amida Butu letting my mouth do the talking.
“Is it here even now?”
“Yeah, it is always here.”
“Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu. Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu.”
“So, be assured. Because Amida Buddha is always here.”
I enveloped Ren’s body and gently rubbed her back.
“Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu. Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu.”
I keep reciting Amida Nenbutu slowly letting my mouth do the talking. Gently, slowly, and calmly like a lullaby. While rubbing this young child’s back. And I keep reciting Nenbutu sometimes patting her back gently with a palm.

“Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu. Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu.”
Well, it’s okay now. Amida Buddha is here. It is always here.
“Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu. Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu.”
So, be assured. There is nothing to be afraid anymore. There is nothing to hurt you anymore.
“Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu. Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu.”
Amida Buddha will protect us. Certainly it will protect you and you.
“Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu, Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu.”
So, it’s okay now. You may be assured now.
“Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu. Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu.”
Soooo… soooo… soooo.
After a whle, Ren was sleeping in my chest with a small sleepy breath. Ren’s warm, little back is slowly moving back and forth in my hand. Her expression was calm, soft, lovely, and sincerely reassuring.
All right, all right, all right. Please have a good night.
Don’t worry. I’m here for you.
I keep reciting letting my mouth do the talking holding the little child.
“Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu. Namu Amida Butu, Amida Butu.”
I’m here for you.
The fifth play: the story of Rajomon and Amida Buddha- warmly, gently, and calmly-(complete).
