Thanks for watching. I have photographs of the days of the thicket in the area where I was born and raised. This day is Thursday, December 22, 2022 Early morning I photographed plants shining in raindrops in the quiet rain. Please enjoy the mysterious world view like a painting.

Lake Toya was formed more than 110,000 years ago when water accumulated in a hole blown away by a volcano, and the top of the volcano is Nakajima that protrudes from the lake. Lakes are the energy of water, and water represents emotions, so it works to purify the mind. Since there is a volcano in it, it is a power spot that has fire in the water. Fire also purifies. This has a behavioral effect. Lake Toya, especially Nakajima, is a place of fire and water, purification and power of mind and body. I think this Nakajima, which is one of the best three in Hokkaido, will be crossed by Lake Toya steamship. From now on, we will ride the Espoir, which looks like a fairytale castle. It departs (*^_^* twice an hour of 00 minutes and 30 minutes.) It is 1500 yen for adults. On the boat, seagulls come in droves. The seagull is a symbol of freedom (Jonathan), so it's exciting. Although it is often mistaken for seagulls and sea cats. Both sea gulls and seagulls have yellow beaks, but sea gulls have red tips, and seagulls have pink legs, but sea gulls seem to have black legs. It was almost a seagull. The first thing you can see when you go over the lake is Benten Island and Kannon Island. These two islands are twin islands connected by a sandbar. Kannon Island is an island with a flat feeling. Here, "Nakajima Benzaiten" is enshrined. It has a reputation for increasing your fortune considerably. The triangle is Kannon Island. It is said that Enku carved a Buddha image on the island, and it is said that the "Guanyin Bodhisattva Statue" was enshrined on this island. (Kannon-sama is kept at Usu Zenkoji Temple, and a replica of it is dedicated in the hall of the island.) Usu Zenkoji Temple and Treasure Museum It is also a famous temple for cherry blossoms. You can see Showa Shinzan beyond the sandbank, so please pay attention. From Bentenjima, you can feel the vibration of the beautiful goddess and want to just look at it. You can't go ashore without chartering a boat, but I'd love to go there someday. There is a three-storied pagoda floating in the lake on the side, and it was also a really beautiful wave. It is said that the white dragon god, the guardian god of Lake Toya, is enshrined here. I felt like an old-fashioned goddess in a whitish costume, so maybe Benten-sama? I thought, but since it is a white dragon god, I am convinced. In addition to these two islands, Nakajima consists of four islands: Oshima, where pleasure boats land, and Manjujima, also known as Snake Island, which has many small snakes and cannot land. The steamer will land on Oshima. A lava dome formed by a volcanic eruption in the Toya Caldera about 50,000 years ago appeared on the surface of the water, and it has been confirmed that there are 11 volcanic bodies in the vicinity, including one at the bottom of the lake. The largest island, Oshima, has a circumference of 9.6 km, and the highest point, Tonoshi Kenupuri, is 455 m above sea level and is covered entirely by broad-leaved forest. (from Wikipedia) By the way, the reason why Nakajima has a peak (mountain) is because it erupted in the same place many times, which is rare. By the way, there are actually five islands, one of which is submerged in the lake and is said to be a mecca for diving. Standing on a sunken island even though it is a lake, it is as if you can feel as if you have been made from the lake. It's romantic. When you go to Oshima, there are shrines and coffee shops. You can enter through the gate and go around the island in about 3 hours. The great plains along the way are the best power spots. I'll introduce it in another post later.

Spring in Kyoto

#Nitori Stained Glass Museum The president of Nitori actually went to England many times, transported the stained glass of churches that were being demolished due to the decrease in believers, etc., to Japan and exhibited them in Otaru. No matter how many times you visit, you will fall in love with its beauty. My family is a Buddhist and I just want to kneel. Jesus and the angels are lovely, but I like the lamb who looks up at Jesus Christ (laughs). I would like to see it in a real church in Europe.

#It is read as Kijima Zaki Amaterasu Soul Shrine (Konoshima ni masu Amaterumi Tamajinja). Because there is a "sericulture shrine" that worships silkworms in the precincts, it is also called #silkworm shrine. The movie village is located in Uzumasa, which is said to be an area where the power of the migrant #Qin clan was great. Since it was the base where the chief of the Qin clan lived, it became an Ultra C reading of thick and the rest of the Qin clan's ego, written as Uzumasa. Sericulture is one of the things that Mr. Hata brought to Japan. That's why there is a shrine dedicated to silkworms. Originally #Kijima Shrine (Konoshimajinja)." In the "Succession Japan Kijima" it is written as "Kijima God". It is recorded that "(Fushimi) Inari, (Ishimizu) Yawata and Kijima are not visited by people," and that people were constantly visiting. There was also a pond of fresh water here. Currently, it is said that he has moved to the forest of Shimogamo Shrine. Of particular note is the three torii gates stacked #Three Pillar Torii In the historical note in the company office, "This is said to be a remnant of the fact that Jingkyo (Netrian Christianity) came to Japan and was associated with the Qin clan." There is. There is a theory that Buddhism and Christianity were newly introduced to the Japan during this period, and there was a dispute as to which central government should adopt. Mr. Qin seems to have been promoting Christianity. Prince Shotoku, who was supported by Qin Hesheng, the chief of the Qin clan, was born in a stable, and there is an episode that is like Christ. Because there are many mysteries, it is a deep shrine where you can create delusions.

It is the Sapporo TV Tower in a snowstorm.

If you go through the Senbon torii gate of Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, you will find the Okusha Fushimi Inari Taisha Okusha Shrine Worship Hall. From there, you will start to proceed to Mt. Inari, past the pine trees that have risen roots, and if you continue for a while, you will find the Kumataka Shrine in front of the middle of Mt. Inari. Mt. Inari is the most powerful (in a good or bad way) power spot I've ever been to, and it made me feel like I was wandering in another world. So it's a shame to turn back here, but I'm climbing for the time being. Even if I turned back here, it was one of the places where I was satisfied. I was surprised that the new pond was on such a mountain, but it was very large and very beautiful reflecting the trees. This pond is also called Kodamagaike. In the old days, there was a legend that when searching for the whereabouts of a missing person, you could clap your hand toward the pond and get a clue in the direction the echo returned. Recently, anything you are looking for is OK, and I saw on the Internet that you can find out where the people who need to make their wishes come true. And Kumatakasha! I bought a candle at the bamboo shop just across the street and made a request to Kumataka Shrine. When I clapped twice in front of Shinike, I heard a sound from the back on the right. My friend was surprised that it was different because he heard a sound from the left side. By the way, if you go in the direction where the sound came, your wish will come true. I'm not sure, but I went along the road normally. Kumataka Okami is said to be the god of competition, and it seems that there is a benefit to win the game, so why not come here when you have an important game? I would like ? to come here again someday.

2023 Happy New Year! What did everyone do on 12/31? Do you eat soba noodles and see red and white? Do you get up early in the morning to visit the shrine on January 1st? Yesterday, I also received New Year's cards from distant friends, and I visited a nearby shrine to pray for a safe and safe year in 2023. During the New Year, everyone is also welcome to stay at Jintangting.

It is said that Kukai visited and carved Benten-sama. It is housed in the Treasure Hall, and in the cave there is a statue of Renzaiten and a statue of the Sixteen Children. It is said that if you write a wish and dedicate a candle, your wish will come true. It was a fantastic and mysterious space that made me feel like I was going back in time.

For inbound Making pamphlets (unofficial) for Izumo Taisha Tried. We look forward to seeing you there.

According to Otaru, it is the most popular shrine that becomes "Sumiyoshi Shrine when it comes to Otaru's shrines". The god of worship is The three gods of Sumiyoshi (Shikotsutsu Ojin, Nakatsutsu Otojin, and Omotsutsu Otojin), who appeared at the time of the exorcism of Inaki, and Empress Jingong (Princess Jingong) are enshrined. It is characterized by a slope that extends straight from the first torii gate to the shrine in the back. As you climb the stairs many times and pass through the torii gates one by one, you can feel the transformation from the mundane world to the sanctuary where God is present. Feel the impression of diving into the first torii gate and after the last torii gate, the atmosphere changes completely, and you gradually become filled with beautiful and gentle spirit. If you look back from the shrine, you can see the straight road of the precincts and the sea beyond, so please look back. I feel like I can see a dragon emerging from the sea and heading straight towards the beautiful worship hall. From spring to the beginning of autumn, if you want to make the hearts of worshippers even more enlivened by the flower water in cooperation with Otaru Flower, please visit us.

Kinkai Bay in Setouchi City, Okayama Prefecture. I photographed the fishing boat leaving the port at dawn and the sunrise. It became a work that made us feel the relationship between people and nature.

I couldn't easily return to my hometown due to Corona, and when I returned home for the first time in a long time, I happened to meet that brother. That smile was a superb view that is not often seen during work or travel. Thank you for cheering me up.

A ritual to welcome the gods is performed. An island that stands out on the beach of Inasa. At the time of the Shinto-Buddhist custom, "Benzaiten" was enshrined, but since the Meiji era, Toyotama Hiko no Mikoto has been enshrined. Location : Inasanohama Bentenjima
