<Y>I think that a bamboo is good.
<K>It is hard.
<Y>Yes. A bamboo is strongly extended straightly with root on the ground.It seems that the latest people is insufficient of such power. The core is not found in that people. There was the central pillar in a house in old day. The pillar was growing in being alive. Now, a house becomes square and the pillar is lost. I think that it is serious for culture of Japan.
<K>Influence has appeared in the body.
How can it have in such a thing having been lost? They even forget that it will have.
<Y>They also forget foundation of shrine and building and so on. Nobody will look at a foundation. People say good or bad only seeing upper house. A flower is seen and a root is not. It is not going to see by the leaf of small grass. Delicacy is being lost to a small thing. It was haughty and delicacy has been lost.
