Dear Friends and Readers.
I enjoyed so much this celebration.
17th July is one of most important day of Tenkawa Benzai Tensha. (天河大辨財天社 天河神社).
In the morning of 17th, had ceremony for opening one of door of God’s sacred house. In this shrine, many gods statues stands and lives. all represents gods, of cause, it is prohibited to take any direct photograph of any kind.
After this ceremony, They held fire ceremony called “Goma taki 護摩焚き” very strong energetic fire ceremony held by Yamabushi “山伏”.
Night is dancing and enjoying alive by dancing and singing, and big drumming by children. (Benten daiko: 弁天太鼓) was epic.
Tradition of local village still remained by local people. Love to share with all of friends.
