まず初めに、ごめんなさいを言います。6話で京都の祇園祭（ぎおんまつり）の話をしていますが、「前祭（まえまつり」と言っているのは、「さきまつり」のまちがいです。京都およびリスナーのみなさん、本当にすみませんでした。間違えた私も悪いけど、知らん顔してウソ教えるハルカちゃんも悪いと思わない？ChatGPTは漢字弱いです。今回もお寺の名前が多いですが、ハルカちゃん、全部ウソ読みました。
さてさて、今回は京都に比べて人気イマイチな奈良のお話です。私は好きなんですけどね。まあどちらも夏に行くには暑すぎて、本当は対決する前に退場してもおかしくない県です。でも、夏ならではの奈良（←発音するとおもしろい！）を紹介しているので、聞いてみてくださいね。

我们来看看道德经的第三章。

不上贤，使民不争；不贵难得之货，使民不为盗；不见可欲，使民不乱。是以圣人之治也，虚其心，实其腹，弱其志，强其骨，恒使民无知、无欲也。使夫知不敢、弗为而已，则无不治矣。

第三章的内容，对许多人来说都是有争议的。Some people may not understand this chapter, because we tend to think intellects are good. 然而，老子看到了有才德的人的问题。In my understanding of this chapter, it means intellects bring about ego, which is not align with Tao. 表面上突出的事物会带来争斗。老子追求的是顺其自然，无为而治。竞争和欲望可以导致战乱，When I said the sage weakens people’s ambition, you may disagree, because our time is the age of ambition and everyone want to become better. But this also makes people anxious and overload. Lao Tzu advocates letting go and non-doing, go with how things are. 当所有人都满足于自己的生活，天下就会太平，不会有争斗。

感谢收听，我们下次见~

"This is what a blockbuster drama is!"
An eye for an eye! A tooth for a tooth!
Hammurabi has been resurrected from the dead!
This show tells viewers a bitter-sweet emotion like an espresso.

“블록버스터 드라마란 이런 것이다!”라는 걸 제대로 보여준 드라마가 아닐까 싶습니다.
눈에는 눈! 이에는 이!
