TENMON JITEN
Katakamuna Uta 58: Kamuna Mani Mani
Scope: An English rendering of Katakamuna Uta 58, separated into transliteration, controlled literal gloss, and interpretive English.
Transliteration
Kamuna Mani Mani — Kami Wake no Uta — Oho To Tama — Tamaru — Awa Chiho no Sawake
Literal Gloss
Latent reality proceeds according to the spirit-jewel law. Song differentiates and orders divine functions. A spirit-core is placed at the great gate, rounds and gathers, then subtle fire-water becomes a thousand shoots and is distributed into streams.
Interpretive English
Uta 58 turns reflected mind-body into a song of discernment, gathers it at the great gate, and redistributes it into many channels. No external etymological identity is claimed.
Evidence Boundary
This English edition preserves the Japanese source’s distinction between canonical text, structural observation, TENMON interpretation, comparison, and unverified hypothesis. Sound correspondences are not presented as proof of historical etymology.
