"From Heaven is above All"
I was tired of practicing mediation.
So, I opened up my eyes to instinctively look out of the window of a Shinkansen train.
Then I instantly saw Mt. Fuji 20km or 13 miles far surrounded by the unique and overwhelming terrain.
It was snow-capped and gigantically occupying the space out of the window against the blue sky.
Its wide broad base facing the Pacific Ocean over the super-express railroads could be also fully observed, though a little skew.
As I had no camera, I could only let the scenery slowly moving behind against the 200km/h train.
And I realized that I had not even thought I might have been able to watch Mt. Fuji today while being carried out toward Tokyo along the Pacific Coastline.
I was thus greeted today by an Angel, in my interpretation.

If a volcano erupted once in 10,000 years, it is classified into a live volcano.
An average life-span of a volcano is one million years.
Yet, Mt. Fuji is jut 100,000 years old.
To your surprise, Mt. Fuji is very young.
(But, have you ever seen a one-million-year-old volcano?)
Yet, it was in 1707 that Mt.Fuji erupted most recently.
Joh 3:30 He must increase, but I must decrease.
Joh 3:31 He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.
