This is the final stanza of Ryokan’s poem in praise of his favorite character in his beloved Lotus Sutra, which he knew intimately. Never-Despising-Anyone was, in his eyes, the very embodiment of the bodhisattva’s faith in the value of all human beings. This happily foolish character offered full prostrations before every person he encountered, confirming his belief in their intrinsic capacity to awaken. Even when people chased him off with blows and ridicule, Never-Despising-Anyone just said, “I cannot despise you since you will become Buddha!’
