Uozu City, Toyama Prefecture: Nichiren Sect Gyokurenzan Shinjo-ji Temple, December 22, 2013 (Sunday) On Sunday, December 22, 2013, the sixth Winter Solstice Water Ritual (Toji Suigyo-sai) was held at Shinjo-ji Temple (Chief Priest: Kanshun Tanikawa / Dharma name: Nitoku, 65 years old) of the Nichiren Sect, Gyokurenzan, Uozu City, Toyama Prefecture. I covered the event closely over a one-night, two-day period. In the harsh winter of Hokuriku, about 80 people of all ages and genders from the general public performed the water ritual, pouring cold water over their heads, following the traditional practices of the Nichiren sect's ascetic monks. This act gives courage to people all over the world. It is a wonderful event that gives strength not only to those who actually attend, but also to many people through works on the internet, and I was moved many times while editing. Thanks to this, a moving epic of 7 pages and 221 photos was created. In order for many people to experience this感動 (kando - deep emotion) and to preserve it as a library edition, we have decided to distribute the same CD that was sent to Shinjo-ji Temple to our fans. When you insert the CD into the disk drive of a MS-Windows compatible computer, a 26-minute slideshow will play, with 305 images including commentary displayed on the full screen every 5 seconds, accompanied by BGM such as Oni-daiko (demon drumming) and Suigyo Kanmon (water ritual prayer). A controller is built into the screen, so you can stop or skip at any point and enjoy it freely. Original images that are not uploaded to the website are included, so you can print them up to A3 size. You are free to print them out as long as you enjoy them personally. (Windows PC compatible) [Note] For MS-Windows compatible computers. It will not work on a DVD player connected to a TV. You can connect your computer to your TV with an HDMI cable and switch to external input to watch on the TV screen.
