仰(おっしゃ)る通(とお)りです。門弟(もんてい)たちに対(たい)し、研(と)ぎ澄(す)まされた刀身(とうしん)に浮(う)かぶ白銀(はくぎん)の刃文(はもん)を見(み)つめさせ、日々(ひび)の精進(しょうじん)が己(おのれ)の刃(は)にそのまま現(あらわ)れるという真理(しんり)を厳(きび)しく叩(たた)き込(こ)みます。

Just as you say. I will make the disciples gaze at the silver temper line on a whetted blade, and drill into them hard the truth that daily devotion shows exactly in one's own edge. (N1 lesson 151)
