Mutsu no Utsushi Kaeshi: sixfold / harmonious reflection and return. Funa Kaeshi Hane: the returning vessel springs or lifts like a wing. Oho Toke Hashiri: a great loosening or release runs forth.

Interpretive English

The returning current is placed into a field where a fire-root is held within a receptive, water-like matrix. Deep knowing is set within the inner mountain-body, and the pattern is reflected back through a sixfold or harmonizing return. The vessel that carries the process turns back and springs into the next space like a wing. In accordance with Kamunagara, the gathered fire-water loosens and runs free, becoming waves along the abundant path of word and event. The hollow is not mere emptiness: it brightens, grows, and becomes the field in which a heavenly reflection is woven into pattern. The sequence culminates in a great rounding or gathering of heaven. This is an interpretive rendering within the TENMON kotodama framework, not a claim of established historical etymology.

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.
