"Ryomufuda" at Matsushima Shrine

[Old Counselor] May 22, 2012 08:30

Why don't you entrust your dreams to Matsushima Shrine's "Ryomufuda"!


I tried to practice this. Just one year ago, I passed the national exam with a pass rate of about 2% in my late 60s (= old ginseng) thanks to the benefit of "Ryomufuda".

The method of praying is as follows.


First, get "Ryomufuda" (= ¥ 500) at Matsushima Shrine.
And the day before the important day, fill out the form inside the bill with wish. This paper depicts mythical and young Okuninushi (= Oguro Ebisu) by the flash of Miyashi.
And put the completed bill under the pillow at night to sleep.
The next morning, when you put this bill in the prayer box for fulfillment of the good dream bill at Matsushima Shrine, Miyaji will strictly hold the Masamu fulfillment festival in worship hall.

After this ceremony, the bill will formally become the "Ryomufuda = amulet" where God dwells. This is derived from the legend that "a good dream with Okuninushi will be a real dream."

Kids wrestlers are very active ... "Wanpaku Sumo Tournament"

[Shitamachi Tom] May 21, 2012 08:30

The annual "Wanpaku Sumo Chuo-ku Tournament" was held on Sunday, May 20 at [General Sports Center] in Hamacho.

 

Wanpaku Sumo 201205-01_R.JPGEarly in the morning, the area near Hamacho Park was crowded with participating children, their parents, and local supporters. It seemed that not only the players themselves, but also the way of getting the power of their parents seemed to be transmitted.

At the beginning of the tournament, real wrestlers came from the Arashio room of the sumo wrestling, which is the only headquarters in Chuo-ku, received explanations with demonstrations such as rules, manners, and "bidden hands", checked notes, It is a good start of the game where everyone can do radio exercises well.

 

Wanpaku Sumo 201205-02_R.JPGThere are individual battles divided into men and women for each grade and team battles against schools in the afternoon, and the voltage of support increases in each. Mochiro games are important, but children will learn how to act neatly and fairly, whether they win or lose, and how to care for others through the game.


Some of the players were sorry for losing their regrets and tears. I want to sympathize, but there must be "lost and know". I just hope that children will be able to grow through various experiences.

Nevertheless, the eyes of the children who fell one step after the match and went home with their families were lively. The fulfillment of what we have worked hard will be better than anything.


We prayed that the children of Chuo-ku would grow up quickly and felt that we would like to support them.


By the way, the players who won the top position in this tournament will participate in the "Tokyo Block Tournament" scheduled to be held on June 23 as representatives of Chuo-ku. Beyond that, the national convention will be held in July. I would like to support you to achieve good results. "Wanpa Sumo National Convention"


I want to develop Chuo-ku as a town where local children can grow up honestly and healthy. Because these children are valuable human resources who will support the future region ...
