At the suggestion of YAMAMOTO Ryokichi, a discussion was recorded at Columbia Records featuring SUZUKI Daisetz, NISHIDA Kitaro and YAMAMOTO himself. The conversation among these friends from the same hometown, who had known each other since their teens, was in their regional dialect and filled with laughter , creating a relaxed atmosphere of mutual trust and understanding. After the recording, they had a meal at the restaurant "Yoshino”, which turned out to be their last gathering together. The recording was not distributed and was carefully preserved by the three individuals. You can listen to the audio at the Ishikawa Nishida Kitaro Museum of Philosophy.
