"Meeting is beginning of separation – 会うは別れの始め"
Japanese Buddhist Proverbs.
Meeting is only the beginning of separation.
1. The consequence of any evil act or thought never,--so long as karma endures,--will cease to act upon the existence of the person guilty of it.
2. Buddhist nuns and priests have their heads completely shaven. The proverb signifies that it is better to correct the heart,--to conquer all vain regrets and desires,--than to become a religious. In common parlance the phrase "to shave the head" means to become a monk or a nun.
3. Regret and desire are equally vain in this world of impermanency; for all joy is the beginning of an experience that must have its pain. This proverb refers directly to the sutra-text,--Shôja hitsumetsu é-sha-jori,--"All that live must surely die; and all that meet will surely part." http://
