The Dewa Mountains run through the central part of Yamagata Prefecture.
The land of religion, the sacred peak of Shugen, Tsukiyama, Mt. Yudono and Mt. Haguro are settled there.
On the approach to Mt. Haguro, there is a village called Toge, which is lined with dormitory.
There is Shozen-in in the village, and a temple called "Otake Dainichido" is built on the precincts.
"From September 25 to October 30 this year, the opening of the book of Take Dainichi Nyorai in main deity will be held."
I learned about the information through the pamphlet of the "Ide Cultural Memorial Hall" in the same area.
Oh, Obamboo Dainichi Nyorai.
Maybe.
3-6-2, Nihonbashihoncho. The north side of the Ozu Washi store.
There is an explanation board of the site of the bamboo Dainichi Nyorai well and the auspiciousness.
Is that bamboo?
"In the early Edo period, there was a middle-income woman named bamboo who was caring.
And he had given others to divide what he had eaten.
A practitioner of a super wasteful spirit that eats the leftovers of the kitchen sink.
One day a Mt. Haguro examiner, led by mysterious power, came to the mansion.
"The gentle bamboo is the reincarnation of Dainichi Nyorai."
The words of the examiner were ignited, and Take's reputation spread throughout Edo. "
Oh, that's the story.
What kind of things.
Patterns common in narratives and fables.
I didn't care much about it.
In the distant Dewa area, the statue of Dainichi Nyorai and the Dainichi Nyorai-do were enshrined generously to the present day.
Do you have a special revelation this year?
Ohtake, it might be amazing.
The birthplace of Katsura Shoin, the fifth Tokugawa Shogun Tsunayoshi, is also a bamboo as a living Buddha.
"Thank you, the end of the day with the light is a flower-shaped bamboo day."
I'm writing a song.
It would have been a great salvation and peace for those who live desperately every day to worship the people who are within reach with God and Buddha.
And when I pay attention to the religion of the Edo period, I can feel the existence of producers with outstanding abilities.
Ise Jingu Shrine, Mount Fuji Asama Taisha Shrine, Kumano Sanzan ...
Lectures have been created in various places, and a system has been created that even ordinary people with low incomes can expect to visit them once in a lifetime.
The information network of examiners must have been fully utilized in the production of Three Mountains of Dewa.
The land of faith in the far distant Michinoku.
Due to the presence of Take, the distance to Dewa has been reduced at once.
Let's take the opportunity to visit revelation.
There are plenty of hot springs in the Shonai region of Yamagata Prefecture, as well as Yamagata beef and Yonezawa beef, as well as locally brewed sake in Shonai.
Let's be guided by bamboo and enjoy autumn leaves hunting.
