This chapter explores the practice of meditation through the imagery of "seeing with the inner eye"—specifically, looking into the eyes of Tomekichi Taike as a means of discovering the true self. Taike instructs practitioners to close their physical eyes and, through deep abdominal breathing, shift their awareness inward to awaken an inner eye. This internal gaze, when directed toward Taike's eyes, allows the individual to perceive their own inner world reflected back to them.
As this process unfolds, emotions and long-suppressed energies may begin to surface. These can manifest not only in thoughts or tears, but also through spontaneous vocalizations—nonsensical words or "gibberish" known here as igo (異語). These expressions, although unintelligible, are seen as authentic voices of the heart—language beyond the limitations of culture or nationality.
The central experience emphasized is not the verbal content, but the emotional resonance. Seeing oneself through Taike's eyes often brings a wave of realization, including deep remorse for past mistakes. Still, this confrontation with one's darkness is framed not as punishment but as a sacred encounter with truth. Such realizations are fleeting if one reverts to viewing the world through physical eyes; thus, continual and intentional meditation is encouraged.
Taike affirms that he is always responding to those who truly seek. By meeting his gaze with the innocent and trusting eyes of a child, one can begin to grasp the joy and reality of the true self. Ultimately, this chapter presents a call to persistent, heart-centered practice, where the eyes of the teacher serve as a mirror to the soul.
「田池留吉の目」を見つめる瞑想は、本当の自分と向き合う入り口である。本章では、まぶたを閉じて"中の目"を開くことで、自分の内なる世界と出会う方法が示されている。田池氏の目を心で見つめることで、素直で優しい自分が現れ、詰まった思いが口から異語（デタラメ語）として自然に表現されることもある。言葉にならない叫びでもよく、音として出すことでエネルギーの放出が始まる。
この瞑想では、自分の内なる闇や間違いに心が響いていくとともに、深い懺悔の思いが湧き上がることがある。それでも、このプロセスを通して、田池の目を通して本当の自分の存在を垣間見る体験は、非常に幸せなことであると語られる。ただし、肉の目を通して外の世界を見れば、その体験はすぐにかき消されてしまう。だからこそ、日々意識的に瞑想を続け、「心の目」で田池を見つめ続けることが勧められている。
田池氏は、常に私たちに答え続けている。心を真っ直ぐに向けて、幼子のような素直な目で彼の目を見つめるとき、私たちは本当の自分と出会っていけるのだというメッセージが、章全体にわたって繰り返し語られている。
