- The page quotes Kakyō (1424): “Life has an end; the art must have none,” then reads “art” as any practiced craft.
Field notes
The page presents four named concepts—Shoshin, Jibun no hana, Reidan jichi, and Riken no ken—as ideas from Zeami’s writings, then invites readers to take a one-minute quiz. Its framing contrasts familiar reassurance (“Everyone feels this way”) with a question about continuing to develop one’s craft. The historical details and translation are presented on the page; the excerpt does not show the quiz questions, result logic, or supporting references.
