Kannon-sama of Kotoku Ningyocho

[Asunaro] July 15, 2018 12:00

The honor of Kannon-sama, July 10th.

If you visit on this day, it is equivalent to 46,000 days, so the visit of this day has become popular since the Edo period.

It is called a bodhisattva because it says, "If you care about Kannon-sama, you can change your shape freely and save it."

It is said that there are thirty-three appearances of the change, and it is said that the origin of the Kannon Sacred Ground became thirty-three.

The third place of Edo 33 Kannon is Daikanonji Temple.

"Jodo Shinshu Honganji School Honganji Tsukiji Betsuin"

 

It was built in Yokoyamacho near Asakusa in 1617, but was burned down by the great fire of the Meiryaku era.

Reclaimed and rebuilt the sea off Hatchobori. It came to be called "Tsukiji Gobo".

After that, the shaven was burned down by the Great Kanto Earthquake and was designed by Dr. Chuta Ito.

In 1934, the current main hall was completed.
The exterior of main hall is made of stone in ancient Indian style (Tianzhu style).

Dr. Chuta Ito himself
"I love ghosts, what causality is, sexually, and ghosts."
As you say, Tsukiji Honganji has a number of mysterious animal designs.

Natsukoshi Tsukuda Sumiyoshi's Minazuki Exorcism

[Asunaro] July 2, 2018 18:00

New Year's Eve in June is Natsukoshi's exorcism.

Thank you for purifying the filth for half a year and having spent a safe time.

The second half is also a prayer for sound health.

Inside the large Chinowa built on the grounds of the shrine

"I've got a hemp leaf with my thoughts.
        I wonder if it's going to go to the exorcism even if I cut it into a cut."

"The person who purifies Natsukoshi of Minazuki
        "The life of Chitose is going to extend."

"Misogi Seba in the clean flow of Miyakawa 
        I can't come true to pray."

While chanting

By passing through like writing a letter 8

It is said that they can avoid illness and disaster.
