Iriichi Jizoson Bodhisattva, Iriichi Kanzeon Bodhisattva Yuran Bon memorial service
The current Sakuragawa Park is the place where the original Hatchobori was reclaimed.
guardian of children and travelers Bodhisattva and Kanzeon Bodhisattva are enshrined in a part of the park.
It is close to Hatchobori Station, and many people use the side of the park for commuting. I see not only locals, but also those who often visit.
Where was the Bodhisattva originally? When I was a child, I felt like I was told that it was a thankful Buddha who had flowed to Hatchobori. Later, when it was featured in Ad Street's Heaven, the managed elder told me that the guardian of children and travelers Bodhisattva was undoubtedly flowed into the moat. Just recently, another person told me that the guardian of children and travelers Bodhisattva was in Irifunecho. During the war, the air raids continued and I didn't know when it would be burned, so I was evacuated to the moat. It was forgotten after the war, but it was discovered in the water when the moat was reclaimed before the Tokyo Olympics. I was told that such a story would be good.
Then, about the two Kannon Bodhisattva? In fact, it is often unknown, but it is wonderful because of romance.
On Saturday, July 6, when the intense heat continued, the Iriichi Jizoson Bodhisattva and Iriichi Kanzeon Bodhisattva Yuran Bon memorial service was held.
Yulan Bon is read as "Urabon". It's Obon.
Every year, the memorial service is held at this time before the Bon Festival in Tokyo.
Decorate the offerings and curtains in front of the one guardian of children and travelers Bodhisattva and the two Kanzeon Bodhisattva, and prepare the incense stand.
I went to head priest from Tsukiji Honganji Temple and read it.
After the sutra of head priest, the people who gathered visited us.
A toddlers, an old woman in a wheelchair, a local gentleman who finally walks with a cane, and a person who happened to pass by side and worship. When many people thought that it was hot, rain clouds spread and thunder began to hear thunder.
This time, nearly 90 people visited the shrine. I managed to avoid the last minute rain.
head priest gave a lecture about Buddha. At that time, the rain began to fall. After cleaning up, it rained heavily with the light.
It seems that there was a blessing of Buddha by memorial service.
