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.

[Isehara flower information] 3.01 Okame cherry blossoms along the Oyama New Road... Began to bloom It's March from today. It seems that a graduation ceremony was held at a high school in Isehara City, and I felt the arrival of Spring. It is ♪ also a spring letter from Oyama Along the Oyama Shindo (bypass), which runs for about 3 kilometers, Okame cherry blossoms are planted and pink flowers are beginning to bloom. The tree at the foot of the tree is still a young tree, so it seems to have a thin trunk and bloom early. Overall, I think the flowering is a little early this year due to the warm weather. It looks like it will be in full bloom next week. If you can see the flowers from the car window, it will be fun to drive.

Small and pretty white Ume plums are beginning to bloom here and there. I found a Ume plum tree in a sloping place in the sports park. This is also a bright pink red Ume plum. There are cherry blossom trees around it, and it is a spot where you can enjoy flowers throughout spring. Maruyama Castle Park is lined with Ume plum trees that seem to be more than 3 meters tall.

At three shrines in Isehara City, a grand mamemaki (bean throwing) is held in the precincts. A bean-sowing officer dressed as an event priest lines up on a special stage and scatters lucky beans all at once with shouts. It contains beans and lotteries stored in a baby bag, and local children pick them up with great enthusiasm. At Hibita Shrine, the Oni Yarai Shinto ritual is a highlight. It has become a traditional event. By the way, if you sow beans in the house, won't one of the beans you sowed at the end of the year cleaning come out?

Perhaps due to the influence of the warm winter, it seems that the flowering is earlier than usual. The scent is good, and you can feel the arrival of spring a little earlier. By the way, wax plum is also a yellow flower that blooms during this season, but this is a member of the Roubai family, and it seems to be a different variety from the plum of the Rosaceae family. In any case, I'm looking forward to seeing it in full bloom.

■Hinata Yakushi
The official name "Hinatasan Hojobo" is one of the three yakushi in Japan, whose main shrine is the statue of Yakushi Nyorai.
Until the end of the Edo period, it was called "Hinatasan Ryozenji" and was a base for Hyuga Shugen, where monks piled up penance in the spiritual land.
Every year in mid-September, red spider liliies bloom around Hyuga Yakushi and many people visit.

Hyuga Yakushi is full of highlights, including the statue of a Kongo sumo wrestler on the approach!
At the Treasure Hall, a facility built to house cultural properties, it is possible to see 23 historic Buddha statues, 8 designated by the government and 2 designated by the prefecture.
In addition, the main hall "Yakushido", which features a thatched roof, is also designated as a nationally designated important cultural property.

■ Isehara Tower Mountain Ryokuchi Park
In the vast park, which covers a total of about 13 hectares of parks and civic green spaces, there are promenades and lawn squares, where you can enjoy a relaxing time while being healed by nature.
The promenade is well maintained, so even small children can enjoy hiking with peace of mind.

■ Sangakuen
It is a tangerine orchard with a cultivation area of 1 ha and about 900 tangerine trees!
The tangerine picking season runs from mid-September to February.
From mid-September, you can enjoy very early mandarin oranges such as Hinanohime and Nichinan No. 1, and from early October, you can enjoy picking varieties of mandarin oranges such as Miyagawa Hayao and Taguchi Hayao.

In addition, from spring to summer, you can experience barbecue and vegetable harvesting!
Since Sangakuen is located on the side of a mountain, you can enjoy the scenery of Sagami Bay, Enoshima, and the Boso Peninsula on a sunny day.

As soon as I saw it, it turned white, and the snow cover was about 5 cm. At around 6:30 p.m., as soon as the snow stopped, the white field of vision suddenly opened up, and a night view emerged. The brilliance of the city and the snowy scenery were beautiful, and the visitors enjoyed taking pictures. There is a risk that the road surface is still frozen, so please be careful with your feet and enjoy the view from Mt. Oyama.

【First Yakushi in Reiwa 6】 Yesterday, the annual Yakushi event "Hatsuyakushi" was held, and it was crowded with many pilgrims. Around 12 o'clock, there was a line of cars in the parking lot of the Hyuga Yakushi bus stop and the Yakushi Forest Road, and it was difficult to pass each other. After turning back, I was finally parked in the parking lot of Bochu and walked from the mountain gate to the main hall. An elderly man who came down said, "You're afraid to come, I don't have porridge anymore," and I stopped in my tracks. But a picture is worth a thousand words. We had just started the climb, so we hurried ahead. When I went up to the main hall, I found that the porridge oven was still being cleaned, and unfortunately I couldn't have it this year. However, even after the distribution of porridge was over, there were constant pilgrims, and it was Hyuga Yakushi who was celebrating a lively New Year's holiday.
