Merge Later - Mt. Omine Climbing Prayer

Please check the PDF and bring it with you when you visit the shrine.

  • So should I print this?

Meet 7/6 at 6:30 a.m. Oops, it’s much earlier than I thought. I need to stay the night before.

Since there doesn’t seem to be a particular list of things to bring https://oomine.gozaru.jp/

◆Slip-resistant footwear. Bring your own rain gear. ◆Bring a flashlight. ◆New guests bring sarashi (8 feet). (Used at Mt. Omine and Mt.) ◆Please print out the following (PDF) and bring it with you when you visit the shrine. ・Omineyama-Yamakamigatake(PDF) ・Okyou・Gyouba poem(PDF) ・Map of Omine Dorogawa (PDF) Lunch on the day of departure (boxed lunch or at Ohashi Tea House) is at your own expense. ◆Towels and nightclothes are provided at the accommodation, but no bath towels. ◆Prepare change of underwear in case of rain. ◆Magic (thin) - For gomagi/fuda applications. ◆Precedents must wear white coats, hakama, or other mountaineering attire.

I think I wore white clothes when I participated before as a child, but looking at the pictures, the participants who are not predecessors seem to be wearing normal clothes, especially not mountaineering clothes

  • Short-sleeved T-shirt-like
    • image
  • Also, I can’t carry your luggage.
  • Or you can go without outerwear and just wear underwear and a long-sleeved shirt and roll up your sleeves.
  • I bought the sarashi (8 feet) from Amazon because I’m not sure about it.

2024-07-04

2024-07-05

  • I was able to get a hotel 4 minutes from Tennoji station.

    • Should have been done earlier as they tended to fill up.
  • Shinkansen is empty.

    • It’s a weekday evening move.
    • I have to be quick because if I’m accidentally late, people will come and travel after work and it will get crowded.
  • The videoconference scheduled for this evening has been rescheduled.

    • The question of whether or not to bring a PC is gone, I won’t.
  • Document seal ✅

The breakup will be around 5:00 p.m. at Tennoji, so we’ll take the bullet train directly home from there.

I packed just the clothes for the trip home in a separate bag.

Quick charger, mobile battery, iPhone

My wife and I read the description, and I think this needs a knapsack. She pointed out that

  • The question of when to use a bleach
  • I thought the mountains were so harsh that I would go empty handed, but the interpretation is that you leave your stuff halfway up the mountain and then you go empty handed from there.
  • If this is the case, you cannot carry a sara-sara in your hand or put it in a tote bag for walking around town, so you need a knapsack.

    • Ah, there’s a trap like that, but this time I didn’t think anything of it and came in with a card, so it’s safe.
  • I got 1,500 rounds.
  • There was some option I didn’t know about, so I put it on.
    • We decided that even if they charge extra, it won’t be such an eye-popping amount.
    • In fact, it looks like the amount of money is the same if you simply add this to your plan, since you now have the option of a plan with or without additional charges.

        • image
    • Participation in a videoconference is allowed as a rule of seating.

      • However, I didn’t bring my PC or headset this time.
        • The headset isn’t heavy, so you could have brought it with you: 

      • I have a videoconference scheduled for 4pm (paid time off so I don’t have to attend), but as far as joining a confidential outside company meeting from here
 I don’t think so.
        • It’s possible to just ask.
        • It’s possible to listen and respond with a keyboard.
        • If you’re going to talk, don’t you need mutalk?
    • Uploading images to Scrapbox on both Wifi and 5G doesn’t work at all.

      • Can you do video conferencing with this?
      • I can hear about two people clattering on the keyboard.
      • It’s a pain to look at Twitter and wait for images to load, so let’s do a digital detox!

Scheduled to arrive at 17:30

  • Preview the meeting place, then buy dinner and go to the hotel.
  • However, I’m not sure if they’ll have lunch at 3:00 p.m. and then have dinner.
  • Maybe some Wider In Jelly.
  • Buy a sleep aid and a caffeine-free drink.
    • I’d rather have a portable breakfast if we’re meeting at 6:30.
    • I had brought the base bread.
    • Is a drink and a Widerin Jelly enough?

Tomorrow’s schedule of events is difficult to understand, so I’ll recompile it.

17:30 Shin-Osaka arrival

Possibility of not getting a reserved seat for the return trip

  • Since it’s a Sunday flight to Tokyo, it clashes with the return of Tokyo residents who went sightseeing in the Kansai region.
  • Got a reserved seat for 19:00 departure → Tokyo Station 2127
    • Late because you don’t want the bus to be late.
  • I realized I probably should have bought it from a physical ticket machine and then taken it on Eki-net so I could change it online.

  • Mt. Utaki
  • Ontakesan is a 3,067-meter-high composite stratovolcano located at the western end of the East Japan Volcanic Belt, straddling Kiso-machi and Otaki-mura in Kiso-gun, Nagano Prefecture, and Gero and Takayama in Gifu Prefecture. It is an independent peak with a broad base. It is the 14th highest mountain in Japan and the second highest free-standing mountain after Mt.

  • There is a shrine.
    • Musashi Ontake Shrine [official website]
    • Judging from the URL, “Musashi Mitake Jinja.”
    • Musashi Mitake Shrine is located in Ome City, Tokyo (formerly Tamagun, Musashi Province). It is located on top of Mt.

      • Musashi Ontake Shrine - Wikipedia
        • Ontake and Mitake refer to Mount Kinpusan in the Yoshino region (Nara Prefecture), the center of Shugendo (mountain asceticism). [Ontake and Mitake refer to Mt. Kinpusan in the Yoshino region (Nara Prefecture), the center of Shugendo, which has developed since the Middle Ages as a sacred place of mountain worship, enshrining Zaogongen and Kushimachinomikoto, and has acquired a religious sphere that extends over Musashi and Sagami. The shrine is currently a single shrine that is not affiliated with the Jinja Honcho (Shinto Shrine Headquarters).

        • It is said to have been founded in the 7th year of Emperor Sojin’s reign (91 B.C.), and in 736 Gyoki is said to have invoked Zao Gongen
 In the Meiji era (1868-1912), due to the separation of Shinto and Buddhism, the name of the shrine was changed from Ontake Daigongen (Ontake Zao Gongen) to Ohmadono-Tenjinsha. This was because the shrine was compared to “Omadonomizunotenjinsha” listed in the Engishiki, but since there was another shrine that was also compared to Omadonomizunotenjinsha (Omadonomizunoten Shrine in Daimaru, Inagi City, Tokyo), the name was changed to Ontake Shrine. In 1952, the name was changed to the current Musashi Ontake Shrine.

  • There is a shrine associated with Nara.
    • HOME - Ontake-kyo Daihoncho Ontake Yamato Hongu Various prayers for exorcism, Shichigosan, visit to the shrine, safe delivery, etc. []
      • Ontake-San Yamato Honmu Shrine
    • Located in the center of Japan and straddling Nagano and Gifu prefectures, this 3067-meter-high composite stratovolcano is one of the most famous sacred mountains in Japan, and the history of religious worship is said to date back to the founding of the mountain by Yataro no Kokaku in 702.

      • About Ontake - Ontake-kyo Daihoncho Ontake Yamato Hongu Various prayers for exorcism, Shichigosan, visiting the shrine, safe delivery, etc. []
        • Ontake as the root dojo of Ontake-kyo, and the worshippers who worshiped there united as a group, and on May 17, 1882, the Meiji government officially recognized the independence of the religion, and on September 28 of the same year, the religion was established, thus marking 136 years of history.

        • Ontake-kyo, however, has long been popular as a mountain worship and folk religion, and is a democratic religious organization without a head minister, whose head minister is elected by election.

        • Patterns that became independent as a new sect of Shinto after the abolition of Shugen in 1872.

mother I lost the signal here, so I made a note in my Apple Notebook.

  • I think I’ll just have to go back to where the PC is to reflect it.
  • Merged.

Mother” was going to write about ha-ha-kodo.

  • This hermitage was built by En no Gyoja for his mother who was chasing him for her own safety. The “women-prohibited gate” that was built to prevent his mother “Shiratoume” from entering the dangerous mountain was the beginning of the “women-prohibited” policy, which has been maintained for more than 1,300 years. This is a reflection of En no Gyoja’s kind heart for his mother, and since his mother assisted villagers in childbirth, the temple is believed to have a sacred power to bring forth a child and ensure safe delivery.

Reflection on Yesterday

  • It would be better to buy onigiri (rice balls) and bring them with you for lunch than to wait in line to buy udon noodles, rather than eat them on the bus.
  • Right knee still hurts.
    • They gave me a molas, but I should have brought my own.
  • I should have brought a branch for the electrical outlet since we’re staying in a large room at an inn for the first night.

  • What is Shugendo? When you look up “Shugendo”, you will often find “Shingon-shu” or “Tendai-shu”.
    • But wasn’t Kukai the founder of the Shingon sect, Saicho the founder of the Tendai sect, and Yaku Shokaku the founder of Shugendo? I was wondering about this.
    • Within Shugendo, there are two schools: the Shingon-oriented Touzan school and the Tendai-oriented Honzan school.
    • The Tozan school is a sect of Shugendo (mountain asceticism) of the Shingon sect that existed from the Heian period (794-1185) to the Edo period (1603-1868). It was based on Kinpusan and Sanboin (Daigoji) was its main temple. 
 The Tƍzan school was forcibly integrated into the Shingon school of Buddhism after the Meiji Restoration (1872), when the Shinto and Buddhist schools were separated and the Shugendƍ sect was abolished. --- Tosanha - Wikipedia

    • The Honzan school is a sect of Shugendo (mountain asceticism) in the Tendai sect that existed from the Heian period (794-1185) to the Edo period (1603-1868). It was based in Kumano Sanzan, with Shogoin as its head temple. 
 The head temple was forcibly integrated into the Tendai sect by the Shinto/Buddhist Separation Order after the Meiji Restoration (1868) and the Abolition of Shugendo in 1872 (Meiji 5). However, Shogoin remained opposed to this measure, and after World War II, it became independent again as the Honzan Shugen sect. --- Honzan School - Wikipedia

  • They didn’t get along for a while, but now they’ve made up.
    • Only the Daigishi wears the Tendai-style Brahma kesa in the Shingon-style Shibato-goma
 During the Azuchi-Momoyama period (1568-1600), when the conflict and quarrels between the Tosan School and the Honzan School became violent, a high priest of the time intervened to reconcile them. As a sign of reconciliation, it was agreed that when both schools burned the Shiba-do goma, only the ogishi would wear the kesa of the other school.

Purification with incense powder

  • I wasn’t sure since it was my first time, but the procedure seems to be the same as purification with water
  • It’s called “nuriko” (lacquered incense).
  • Nurikoh is incense mixed with powdered incense ingredients. It is a very fine powder that is as light as baby powder, so when rubbed into the hands or body, it blends in with the skin and is not noticeable. The raw material of lacquered incense is nature itself, which is made from dried and powdered Japanese and Chinese plants used in Chinese herbal medicine, and is said to be basically harmless.

About sutra reading

Full version to be done at the temple, digest version to be done elsewhere. The order of the mantras is on a case-by-case basis. I found a lot of stuff I didn’t know this time.

The chorus is a reflection on the three karma (karma of body, mouth, and mind) that are the obstacles to liberation, namely, greed, hatred, and delusion. --- Chart of Repentance - Wikipedia

Sanjo Tinjo

I wasn’t sure where this came in at. Full text of the Ninth Article❚Sanjo❩Tsikkyo Sutra | Rirakuma’s Blog Shakjyo-kyo (Sutra of the Tathagata Sutra) | Houraku-ji Temple There is an explanation that the first three articles of the Nine-article Tathagata Sutra are three-article tathagata, but this lecture’s interpretation does not seem to be so Maybe this is a combination of parts of Articles 1, 2, and 9, three of which make a three-article tincture.

1: Tangut: The Way of the Buddha Three treasures as treasure possessions

2: Three coffins for purification of mind and spirit. Three coffins for spiritual purification of mind and spirit. Three treasures for the purification of mind and heart

9: Buddhas of the past and present Present-day Buddhas Future Buddhas: Tathagata Tathagata Three treasures for offerings to the deceased Three treasures for offerings to the deceased

The true awareness philosophy holds that all sentient beings are originally endowed with the Buddha-nature, true-self, and Buddha-nature, but as they are born and nurtured, they gradually become covered in the worldly worldly troubles, and they do not realize that they are the same being as the Buddha.
