科学の研究解明は興味深いことだけれども
いきつくところは精神性と倫理性になる
目視や体感の現象を探求することも重要だけれども
おおよその範囲を人間は肌感覚で知っている
これ以上は神の領域である
そういう思慮をもちブレーキをかけた世界も少なからずある
言語は誤解を生むこともあるけれど
人間界で意思疎通をする最も合理的な手段であり
第三者にも後世にも伝えられる手段である
たとえばゴルフにおけるプレイアビリティーについて
芝生の健全性や持続可能性を考えるにしても
結局のところ人間の過度の欲求が人間を苦しめている
法律やルールのまえにエチケットやマナーがあることの意味
考える力があるうちにしておいたほうが良い
The pursuit of scientific understanding is certainly fascinating,
yet where it ultimately leads is toward spirituality and ethics.
Exploring phenomena through direct observation and physical experience is important,
but humans already grasp the general outlines through an intuitive sense.
Beyond this point lies the realm of the divine.
There are, in fact, worlds in which people apply such thoughtful restraint and choose to hold back.
Language can create misunderstandings,
yet it remains the most rational means by which humans communicate,
and it is a medium through which ideas can be conveyed to third parties and to future generations.
For example, when considering playability in golf,
and even when thinking about turf health and sustainability,
it is ultimately human excess that ends up causing human suffering.
There is meaning in the fact that etiquette and manners come before laws and rules.
It is better to reflect on this while we still have the ability to think clearly.
