JAPAN's MOST UNFORGETTABLE SHRINES Relaxing Is One Thing
JAPAN’S MOST UNFORGETTABLE SHRINES Relaxing is one thing, but to feel at peace, you need to step away from the neon signs and busy streets and explore the spiritual side of Japan. Shrines are an integral part of Japanese cultural tapestry. You will find these places of worship hidden in forest sandwiched between office towers on busy streets or clinging into mountain tops visiting them can be a spiritual experience, a chance to gain insights into Japanese tradition and history, or simply enjoy serene escape from the busy city life. Shrines are considered to be the residences of Kami (Shinto gods) and are used as places of worship. The names of Shinto shrines in Japan can end in –jinja, jingu (for Imperial shrines), or taisha. Shrines are built to serve the Shinto religious tradition and are characterized by a Torii gate at the entrance decorated with vermillion, and are guarded by fox, dog, or other animal statues. The architecture of a shrine typically includes a main sanctuary (honden), where the shrine’s sacred object is kept, and a worship hall (haiden), where people make prayers and offerings. Some shrines may have treasury buildings and stages for dance or theatre performances. There are close to 80,000 Shinto shrines in Japan and are of several different categories like: • Sengen shrines- dedicated to the Shinto deity of Mt. Fuji • Hachiman shrines- dedicated to the Kami of war • Inari shrines- dedicated to the Kami of huge harvest of grains • Kumano shrines - dedicated to the twelve Kami, three Grand Shrines in the three Kumano mountains • Tenjin shrines- dedicated to the Kami of Sugawara No Michizane, a politician and scholar FUSHIMI INARI SHRINE Fushimi Inari Shrine (伏見稲荷大社, Fushimi Inari Taisha) is an important Shinto shrine in southern Kyoto.

Haguro Shugendo the Autumn Peak (Extended English Narration and Commentary)
Haguro Shugendo The Autumn Peak (extended English narration and commentary) Introduction Sacred mountains have been revered in Japan from ancient times. Over the centuries practices and ideas related to mountains took specific shape, under the influence of Buddhism, Daoism and other religious forms, until they emerged recognizably in the medieval period as Shugendo. Shugendo was long characterized by its acceptance as objects of devotion and practice both the native deities called kami and the various Buddhist divinities. Following the Meiji Restoration of 1868 and the resurgence of imperial authority, the new government prohibited kami-buddha admixture in temples and shrines, and banned Shugendo. In some places Buddhism came under direct attack and much physical destruction occurred. The shrine-temple complex on Mt Haguro, which had until this time been very powerful both as a Shugendo centre and as a regional economic force, was turned into an imperial shrine under the banner of the new ideology, Shinto, and Haguro Shugendo received a near- mortal blow. Despite the ban on Shugendo, however, the traditions of Haguro Shugendo were maintained, often with great difficulty, through the temple of Kotakuji, the former inner precinct of the shrine-temple complex, deep in the mountain. These traditions live on today through the annual ritual practice called the Autumn Peak, or Akinomine. The secret practice The film opens with a view of Gassan and the luxuriant forests that clothe its lower slopes. A sendatsu (one of the five key officials of the Autumn Peak) tips a teapot against a teabowl, in a ritual called ho no mi, symbolizing, through the imaginary sake being poured, the receiving of the life of the universe into the self.

Worldly Ascetics: Managing Family, Status, and Territory in Early Modern Shugendō Abstract Definitions of Japan’s Shugendō tradition often emphasize how its adherents, known as yamabushi or shugenja, took as their primary goal the acquisition of supernatural power and enlightenment via ascetic practice in the mountains. While mountain austerities were central to the tradition, settled, spouse- keeping yamabushi organized into households constituted the majority of its members in the late medieval and early modern periods; the study of their economic, political, and social activities have been neglected. The Shugendō organization headquartered at Mt. Haguro, one of the Dewa Sanzan triad of sacred mountains within present-day Yamagata prefecture, administered yamabushi and miko priestesses based in communities throughout northern Japan. Using the Sanada Shichirōzaemon and Sanada Shikibu households, elite yamabushi families based in Tōge at the foot of Mt. Haguro, this study investigates the lives and activities of spouse-keeping shugenja within the Shugendō tradition during Japan’s early modern period (1600-1867).

At One with Nature at Dewa Sanzan in Yamagata Prefecture, the Practice of Ascetic Mountain Worship Continues to Be Passed on from Generation to Generation
Series JAPAN HERITAGE At One with Nature At Dewa Sanzan in Yamagata Prefecture, the practice of ascetic mountain worship continues to be passed on from generation to generation. OSAMU SAWAJI hugendo is a religion that originated between the late-Heian (794–1185) and Kamakura (1185–1333) periods, through the syncretic amalgamation of the ancient Japa- Snese practice of mountain worship with the practices of various other religions, including Vajrayana Bud- dhism and Taoism, which were brought to Japan from China. Shugendo shugyo tests of religious devotion have been carried out at various mountains through- out Japan, but the most famous amongst them are A group of yamabushi descend the stone the Dewa Sanzan (the Three Mountains of Dewa), stairway on Mount Haguro consisting of Mount Haguro (414 m), Mount Gassan Photo: Courtesy of Shonai Visitors Association (1,984 m) and Mount Yudono (1,504 m), situated in central Yamagata Prefecture. It is said that the Dewa Sanzan were chosen by Prince Hachiko, son of Emperor Sushun, as a place for performing his own shugyo around 1,400 years ago. Since then, many yamabushi 1 have visited the Dewa Sanzan to undergo harsh, rigorous shugyo. As a result of those yamabushi visiting various places around Japan and spreading their beliefs, the Dewa Sanzan came to attract a great many followers. Yamagata Prefecture “Mount Haguro, Mount Gassan and Mount Yudono respectively represent the present, the past (which is viewed as the afterlife) and the future. A pilgrimage to all three mountains therefore signifies a process of death and rebirth,” says Haga Miyuki of Yamagata Prefecture’s Education Department.

A hybrid of the Hinai chicken and the Rhode Island Red, the Hinai Jidori is designated as a Natural Monument. Raising the Hinai Jidori takes more than three times as long as with typical broilers, and they are considered to be one of the three best varieties of chicken in Japan. Another local delicacy of Odate is tonburi, the dried seed of the summer cypress, which is also sometimes called “field caviar” because of its texture. The edamame of Odate is also known for its high nutritional value, which comes from the manure of the Hinan Jidori that is used for fertilizer. Hinai Jidori chicken skewers Edamame, a harbinger of fall cenery Mount Moriyoshi is known as one of the hundred most beautiful flower mountains of Japan and is famous for its “snow Smonsters”—the towering, icy figures of trees which have become covered in rime.
