Mantou-Sai (Many lanterns festival) in Hattasan Sonei-ji Temple 2015-1 (Fukuroi City, Shizuoka Prefecture)
Japan

法多山尊永寺は神亀2年(西暦725年)行基によって開かれたと伝え、本尊正観世音菩薩は厄除観音として知られています。

現在の本堂は1983年に再建されたもの、鎌倉時代の様式を現代建築で力強く再現した、独特の風格が漂います。

仁王門(国指定重要文化財)は桃山時代の様式を今に伝えています。

初詣は東海一円から老若男女が集まり、春には桜、夏はホタル、秋にはイチョウ、また「田遊祭」「節分祭」「万灯祭」で賑わいます。

法多山では、7月10日は1年でもっともご利益のある日と伝えられています。その日1日お参りすれば、4万6千日分のご利益があるといわれ、早朝から夜遅くまで大勢の人々で賑わいます。

この日に本尊厄除観世音に灯りを献ずれば、そのご利益は倍増するともいわれています。

7月9日と10日は、古くから「万灯祭」と呼ばれ、本堂前には、参詣者の手によって何千基もの灯籠が奉納されます。

More About Japan

The eight islands of Japan sprang into existence through Divine Intervention.The first two gods who came into existence were Izanagi no Mikoto and Izanami no Mikoto, the Exalted Male and Exalted Female. It was their job to make the land for people to live on.They went to the bridge between heaven and earth and, using a jewel-encrusted halberd, Izanagi and Izanami churned up the sea into a frothy foam. As salty drips of water fell from the tip of the halberd the first island was formed. Its name was Onogoro.So far, so good. But when Izanagi and Izanami first met on their island, Izanami spoke to Isanagi without being spoken to first. Since she was the female, and this was improper, their first union created badly-formed offspring who were sent off into the sea in boats.The next time they met, Izanagi was sure to speak first, ensuring the proper rules were followed, and this time they produced eight children, which became the islands of Japan.I'm sure you did not fail to miss the significance of this myth for the establishment of Japanese formal society.At present, Japan is the financial capital of Asia. It has the second largest economy in the world and the largest metropolitan area (Tokyo.)Technically there are three thousand islands making up the Japanese archipelago. Izanagi and Izanami must have been busy little devils with their jewelled halberd...Japan's culture is highly technical and organized. Everything sparkles and swooshes on silent, miniaturized mechanisms.They're a world leader in robotics, and the Japanese have the longest life-expectancy on earth.Text by Steve Smith.
