////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I introduce ''心臓'' on this time.

The ancient people expressed ''heart'' as follows.
It is ''the important internal organs put away in the center of the human body''.

I think that it is very precise expression.


I introduce ''胃'' on the next time.


Thank you.
See you next time.

All of us are pieces of peace.
