神社の手水舎、菊がぷかぷか。
浮かべるところばかりではないことを学んだ令和5年目の秋。
悲しい花から香り高い花へ。

哀愁の欠片28
不意に足元へ転がってきた鳥の巣は、大きさからして小鳥が作ったものだろう。観察するとそれは枯草の茎や水苔、PE繊維まで使われている。春先に親鳥がこれらの材料を何度も往復して運び、嘴で器用に編み込んでいる姿が目に浮かぶ。そこで卵を産み、体温を使って暖め、孵化したら雛に餌を運び育て、最終的に何匹の子が無事巣立っただろうか。
子育ての季節が終わり放棄された巣は、晩秋の強風に吹かれて地に落ち、やがて土に帰る（化学繊維は分解しにくいが）。冬を越え暖かくなれば、また親鳥が新たに材料を集めて飛び回り巣作りが始まる。
（巣の下側からも��る。外側に多く水苔を使っているのはテクニックなのか？）

The wind bells have been popular recently on Instagram especially at shrines because they sound cool. They look cool, too, but I still don’t like going out in summer.

Aka-do Handwashing Stall at Buddhist Temple in Tokyo
Location: Jindai-ji Motomachi, Chofu City, Tokyo, Japan
Timestamp: 15:17 on July 19, 2023
Typical handwashing stations found at Shinto shrines (known as 手水舎/temizuya; a place for the ritual cleansing of hands and mouth with water when visiting shrines) considerably outnumber the handwashing stations commonly seen at Buddhist temples (referred to as 閼伽堂/akadou; literally translated as holy water temple).
At either of these locations, you would typically encounter rows of ladles. These ladles are used to dip into a large stone water basin and then poured over your hands, cleansing oneself before approaching the temple or shrine that houses the deity.
However, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, many handwashing stations were either deactivated or reconfigured to enable visitors to cleanse their hands without direct contact with the ladles, as depicted in the provided photo.
Based on my personal experiences, I've observed that several shrines I visited throughout 2023 are gradually returning to the traditional practice of using ladles, indicating a positive shift towards normalcy before the pandemic emerged.
Interestingly, the purification ritual at Buddhist temples may or may not include a handwashing station. However, it invariably incorporates a large covered cauldron that emits incense smoke for purification purposes. In contrast, Shinto shrines exclusively rely on handwashing stations, without employing incense smoke for purification.

Simplicity #168: Chozu-ya / Kamakura Walk #03
🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿
Along the path to the hall of the temple,
There is a Chozu-ya or water-filled basin
To purify the bodies and the minds of visitors
As a butterfly is dancing merrily in the air.
As a sign of Omotenashi (hospitality)
Petals of a hydrangea are left
On the basin to make guests feel refreshing
During the hot summer season.
Simplicity counts-.
Omotenashi (hospitality) spirit
Is seen here silently in this manner
As an example of… you can say,
Embodiment of Japanese culture.
When you visit this island nation,
And no time to go west far to Kyoto,
High-tech oriented Tokyo may be
Your only destination to go yet
Kamakura, another former capital,
Only 40 km down the south,
Worth visiting to meet good old faces
Of the country.
🪴🪴🪴🪴🪴
お堂へと続く小径には
手水舎があった。
そこには紫陽花の花が置かれ
来客を静かにもてなしていた。
そのさりげない心遣いに
美の顕現を観る。
日本のこうした
おもてなしの文化の
懐の深さを見てとるようだった。
鎌倉散策は楽しい。

虎の手水 虎の手水口は珍しいですが越後の虎、上杉謙信公を祀る別格官幣社上杉神社の手水舎です 上杉謙信公は幼名は虎千代、元服後長尾景虎を名乗り関東管領山内上杉家を継ぎ上杉政虎、そして将軍足利義輝より偏諱を受け輝虎と名乗り、生前は長尾家の「景」ではなく「虎」にこだわりました それは謙信公は虎が眷属の武神毘沙門天の生まれ変わりを称したことや、寅年生まれであることから来ていると思われます その後養子に景虎の名を贈り、自身は法号の謙信を名乗りました 奇しくも春日山城で倒れ没したのも寅年だったそうです #上杉神社 #上杉謙信 ⛩┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈⛩ 上杉神社(うえすぎじんじゃ) 鎮座地：山形県米沢市丸の内1丁目4-13 主祭神：上杉謙信公 社格：別格官幣社 別表神社 ⛩┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈⛩ #神社 #神社巡り #神社好きな人と繋がりたい #recotrip #御朱印 #御朱印巡り #手水舎#神社仏閣 #パワースポット #米沢市 #神社巡拝家 (上杉神社) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cgj8URMvUOt/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
