| How to visit and courtesy call to Shinto shrine. |
I think that set up the another paragraph and introduce it by it also in other paragraphs though it dare to be when writing. It is not understood whether it is good that I write this. However, when the net is read, it is noticeable that there are a lot of people who visit the Shinto shrine by a selfish purpose. I think that write the learning to serve it even a little by it in this age said toward Ascension though which repaying will come for such people. Because the method of the introduction here is only my method, generality adds that it might not be beforehand. What place is the Shinto shrine? "Place in which it is face to the god" is an answer that I think about. It is said that a lot of Shinto shrines are located in the energy spot. Face to the god in the special land. I think the meaning to visit the Shinto shrine is that. Face to the god, and watch myself. I think that originally it had such a meaning that the visit to a Shinto shrine. Another one is a recovery of energy. It means to receive energy only by visiting the Shinto shrine in a word it is in the energy spot. You might request the meaning like hurting the mind and body's comfort and enhancement of energy, etc. from the visit to the Shinto shrine. Power strengthens in the Shinto shrine where a lot of people's reverences are collected that much, too. Moreover, there is a Shinto shrine built on ground special as introduced it by the another paragraph, the energy of such a Shinto shrine is big. However, I think that a moderate qualification is needed to go to such a Shinto shrine with a spiritual intention exept for the sightseeing purpose. Bigger container will be necessary to receive bigger energy. To fill the hot water, nobody might prepare the glass tumbler. A moderate preparation is needed to receiving big energy. To receive god's high level energy, the body and soul should be made clean that much. Repaying will be received if going to such a Shinto shrine to get energy by humble feelings. It doesn't do by the god but gives yourself repaying by your own (deep) will. Your behavior, your malice, and repaying a bad idea will happen to your body as if Medusa seeing the appearance of her which reflects in Perseus's escutcheon. Shall I say as loading off the dark by big light? You can not endure if repaying received at once, if it would be better for erasing karma considering the spirituality. For the sightseeing purpose, it will be except for this solution. Animals can freely enter the god region in the Shinto shrine. It is like going by "Animal frame", and no bad infuluence will be occured, although there is no divine grace either for the sightseeing purpose. Therefore, it would better to consider a spiritual meaning, be better to make the body and soul clean if going to the god for the resolution if going to the Shinto shrine. Meaning to go to Shinto shrine. I find such a meaning following. 1.Go to meet the god worshiped. 2.Make the network between Shinto shrines, and reproduce Japan as land of light. 3.Greeting the gardian god. Making the network between Shinto shrines is impressed with a certin book, and I started to do. To make the network of light and make Japan reproduced spiritually. I think it is the very excitement to participate in it, and to help even a little. I participates in that agree with the concept. After I knew my gardian god as Susanoh I was eager to visit the shrine concerned with the god. May it because of that, one medium saw the god behind me... Way of worship to a shrine. The way of my worship to a shrine basically follows the way introduced by a certin book. I write it as hit on as follows, it would be better for showed on. It should be evaded eating meat before going to the Shinto shrine. The body and the spirit are polluted by eating meat. So, eating meat should be avoided at least the day before visit. In case more devotion needed, even the fish I evaded. It was very natural for me beaccustomed to macrobiotics. Does the god allow the person close who killed the animals? It is evident if thinking about it, whether eating meat is right or wrong. Those who wants to eat meat will insist that eating meat is not for just killing, but for living, but what does a person do for making meals? It is clear to infringe cruelty by eating meat indirectly. Avoide to drink as far as possible. I feel the intake of alcohol with the effect of making person's ethics retreat, so it is not well. Of course, because of the relaxation it is effective, the drinking indiscriminately decides and is not put with evil either. If it is an amount of the extent not got drunken, I think drinking is not bad. So after I got dizziness and drift desease, I had drink lightly to soften nausea came in the train occasionally, also I have adjusted it as sobering up when entering the Shinto shrine Bowing at the torii gate. I bow both when going out and when entering. The Shinto shrine also has the meaning of god's house. So, bowing when going in and out are natural. The approach to a shrine passes edge. The center of the passes are for the god, so the person should go the edge of passes. I also have not known this until recently either. The cautioning oneself is put and written. Manners in Chozu-ya, washing-house. In washing-house, we wash in order of the left hand, the right hand, and the mouth with using the the ladle. 1. With having the ladle by the right hand, wash the left hand while water sprinkling on the left hand. 2. The ladle is substituted for the left hand, wash the right hand as the same way. 3. Again the ladle is substituted for the right hand, the dipped water received to the left hand, and rinsing the mouth by the water in the left hand. While rinsing, it is prohibited drinking the water of the ladle directly. I make it to changed color because there are too many people who do not know this. There must be a lot of people who doesn't know this and it makes me angry when visiting the Shinto shrine. Especially, to drink the water directly from the ladle to the mouth, which is a rude manner is often seen. Moreover, the senior citizen unabashedly accomplishes such rudeness. Therefore, Japan have got depravity... I do not do though there seem to be manners of washing one's left hand again, putting up the ladle that puts water in addition to wash the handle of the ladle, because there is an objection. How do I do when the water of washing-house is dirty or doesn't feed? It is not or there is no water spot in a small shrine though water is always poured in a big Shinto shrine. In such a place, I wash only hand, and omit to rinse the mouth, and told to the god in the shrine in the mind that I could not do because there was no water. Confirmation of the god worshiped. Most of the shrine there is the history book of the Shinto shrine at the side of the torii or in close contact with the main shrine, or somewhere in the Shinto shrine precincts. I was confirming it without fail. Because it is shameful not to know the worshiped god's name to visit a shrine either. When not understanding without history book, I ask the permisison by using the expression "the worshipedl god in this Shinto shrine". Money offering The money offering is not a prayer fee to fulfill wish separately though written in another paragraph. Only such people are stingy in ten yen or 1 yen if they think so as for the money offering though it must be insufficient at all. I think that the shade of meaning that the money offering cooperates in the maintenance of the Shinto shrine is strong. If a lot of people visit a shrine if years pass, facilities in the Shinto shrine are worn out. I think that it is a correct way to put the money offering as so and do it within the range that I can do to cooperate in the maintenance. For the Shinto shrine to which the distance was not able to come so much, I always put in 1000 yen as money offering. However, though it is 1000 yen or 2,000 yen. The Shinto shrine in the vicinity considerably put 10 yen or 100 yen since spending the money everytime is strict for fiscal... Sometimes I do not put money offering for poor time. worship Ringing the bell when there is a bell, and the worship starts as it is when not. Bowing first twice, applause to be twice, bows once again, so that it is said two worship two applause one worship, for me, chant the word of the prayer, before the last bow. Word of prayer First of all, pray for the god for the land ruling, recognized as a dragon god of light for expressing the form of energy, to purify there, and pray for the god for the god's better fortune and to become prosperous. It is so often that the Shinto shrine is built in the energy spot as mentioned. It is said the ground to arouse the super-consiousness as the dragon god of light. Next, Prays to wish the purification of the ground to four gods of "Haraedo-no-Ookami", and god's better fortune and to become prosperous too. Four gods of "Haraedo-no-Ookami" that comes out in purification ceremony poetry of Shintoism "Ooharai-no-Kotoba"(word of purification). "Seoritsu-Hime" to purify the crime, and defilement are thrown from the river to the sea. "Hayaakitsu-Hime" to purify as waiting in the bottom in the sea, and the crime and the defilement are swallowed. "Ibukidonushi" to purify for blowing out the crime and the defilement which "Hayaakitsu-Hime" swallowed which are to the country of "Nenokuni-Sokonokuni". "Hayasasura-Hime" to purify the crime and the defilement brought in to the country of "Nenokuni-Sokonokuni", which are to be wandered and lost. Purification prays to gods who have such a role. When visiting a shrine, it is thought the manifest of four gods' power of "Haraedo-no-Ookami" though often the wind blows or it rained before the visit to a shrine. And, finally prays to the worshiped god in the Shinto shrine. At first, prays for the worshiped god for the better fortune and to become prosperous, and explain the purpose of visit, the movement of light and to make the network, to enumerate the name of the Shinto shrine that has been visited to now (As much as possible), and to build a light network with those Shinto shrines. And, if it has some relation with the god worshiped, I speak for a moment (Of course, in the mind). And Bowing at the end. In the book refered for the way of pray, Pray to be better, start from the ground, and the region, Japan, the earth. A personal asking is made after this. I hope in shape of helping the insufficient part though I make the effort. I think that you may separately do a personal asking though this is one of which it is very impressed in the book , and I also do it thereafter. However, it is a premise to make the effort as possible. And, the part, the timing, and making to come across, which are not enough for achievement only by one's effort, which should be asked for the god. In a word,"It tries every possible way and the destiny is waited. " I think it does not matter that to ask a personal hope, within asking above. I think that it cannot pray for another people's happiness actually if the one is not happy. Both one and others equaly improve not only for one, not only for others. Originally it might be the way it should be. If it is a personal asking to achieve it, hopefully the god might accept it. Visiting belonging shrines as many as possible. I always visit as much as possible when there are the belonging shrine in a shrine precincts. When praying to those gods, mostly omitting a prayer of purification. The ground is already purified because of ending a prayer with the main shrine. Then it is usual to do only the greeting and praying to and the worshiped god. Of course, for the belonging shrine is outside boundary shrine though it starts from purification. There is no payment for the money offering if no change in the purse. When the offertory box doesn't arrange it, I will not pay to avoid the expression of the malice of a heartless party. Bows again when going out of precincts. As the meaning of saying thank you, bows again in the place in which it went out of the torii. It is the same thing that the repeated greeting should be done even if going out of the doorway when visiting person's house, in the shrine, also. The evasion of eating meat had been lifted by one respondent since the night of the day. However, eating meat might keep being evaded by feelings (Is it a sign?) at that time. After visiting a shrine. Going to the Shinto shrine in local after the visit to a shrine is finished and back to the house while Daytime. It to be a report of the local Shinto shrine visit to a shrine, and asking for making to the network. I do that with the thought that the network strengthens if it does so and "Tie" is applied. If the person of such an idea acts in the whole country, the country of Japan might be spiritually strengthened, and a approaching large accident become small comparatively. Japan today is too spiritually degenerate. Leaders in Japan are too much selfish and low in their mind, even the way it should be and the image of the future of Japan cannot be drawn clearly by them, and there is no spirit of improving the present situation but you may say that it is not the day when the report of cruel accident or clime is not seen, To make the vision what kind of country Japan should be is the least condition to be the position of leader, but there to many politician who can't say or imagine it. A variety of something bad invaded with the defeat of World War II, and I think that the result of the maneuver is the current appearance. In addition, though the pool source can be requested from Meiji Restoration. Consider that Deguchi-Onisaburo and another high spiritual persons are started their action before World War II, we can consider about this problem deeply. I will refrain from details in this paragraph though there was a deep spiritual meaning as for World War II. When seeing the current situation, a Japanese role as the people who exist in god's country Japan who live with the god refered in Takenouchi document looks as lost. It is people's role that actually acts even if changing it can do nothing but ultimately rely on the appearance of the agency of Providence, . When the god becomes a direct intervention, it seems that the extraordinary natural phenomenon is inevitable. I think that a large accident that must be inevitable changes, too, when the people change, the bad morale is changed, and the human race advances to the road of light. It seems that a spiritual reproduction of Japan can be attempted by visiting the Shinto shrine, and activating the energy spot. Of course, it might be possible according to other religions. However, consider with the location of shrines and position of Shintoism, especially old-Shintoism, it seems that it is one of the most effective ways. I think that the position of old Shintoism is to be clarified if thinking old Shintoism is near the appearance of the people to be with gods from the ancient times, and both of the end prophecies that "Spiritual world story" to "Hitsuki-Shinji" are carried down in the flow of old Shintoism. How should we do to long for people's the way it should be originally centering on old Shintoism because of the remark of various religions, and the word of mediums, to attempt rebuilding person's world? One of the methodologies aims at making of the Shinto shrine in Japan that is the energy spot to make a network, and to attempts a spiritual reproduction of Japan. The world changes if Japan revives. The power of the dark becomes weak, and goes out with Ascension if Japan shows a true appearance. I think at least so. And, for my happiness at a low level, for the reproduction of the world that started from the reproduction of Japan at a high level, I continued visiting the Shinto shrine of I in various places .
