Goma throws a goma tree into the flame in the altar to ward off evil and calamity, purify one's desires, and fulfill one's aspirations. It is an esoteric ritual to ask. At Oyama Temple, once a year usually on February 28 a special event is held. Godangoma sets up altars in front of the Five Great Myō Kings, places a fire furnace in front of each altar, burns milk, etc., and prays to the Honzon. We burn the firewood of our troubles with the fire of wisdom and pray for no illness and disaster, increased profits, and respect. This ceremony is visited by many pilgrims from far and wide, and it is crowded with bonfires all day long. Even if you look at the whole country, it is rare to see a goma performed at the five altars. The Godan Goma practice is a special event held once a year, but the regular Goma prayer is held every day, and it is a valuable experience that anyone can participate in. In the solemn atmosphere of Oyama Temple deep in the mountains, please spend a moment to wash your heart. Away from the hustle and bustle of daily life, you can purify your mind and body by participating in the ritual of Goma and return to your daily life with a new mindset. Please enjoy this precious opportunity to bring peace and moisture to your heart along with the solemn atmosphere of the temple. Anyone can participate, so feel free to ask.

This year's theme is "The Shape of Flowers ~The Individual Charm Created by Petals~". Here are the differences in the shape of the flowers and the way they bloom for each variety. Please enjoy the beauty of the delicate Ume plum. In 2024, keep an eye on Ume Plum! This year's theme is "Red Ume Plum ~Bright Flower Ume Plum~", and we will focus on Ume Plum. The difference between "red Ume plum" and "white Ume plum" is not the color of the flower, but the color of the pith when the trunk of the tree is cut. This year, we will focus on surprisingly unknown ways to distinguish them and the characteristics of "Ume Plum". Please enjoy the charm of "Red Ume Plum" at the quiz rally and explanation board set up in the Ume Plum Garden.
