Meeting With Mitsuo Sato

MEETING WITH MITSUO SATO

HEAD PRIEST OF THE HOME

OF THE GREAT BUDDHA

On 24 September 1987, Sri Chinmoy gave a Peace Concert at the feet of Kamakura's Great Buddha, the "Daibutsu" of Kotoku-in Temple. At the end of the concert, he meditated with Head Priest Mitsuo Sato, presenting him with a plaque and a garland. Sri Chinmoy then offered the following words to Mr. Sato.

I am offering you my soul's blessingful love and gratitude. The Lord Buddha is giving his highest blessings to your heart, and illumining your entire being. Many, many people come here to receive the blessings of the Lord Buddha, and you are the instrument of our Lord Buddha. Therefore I am extremely grateful to you.
