Tokyo Shrine with Pictures of Japanese People from 100 Years Ago

When I first visited the shrine, I felt a sense of fine, gentle light, more like that of a Buddha than the luminosity of a shrine.

Looking at a map of the precincts of the shrine during the Edo period, it seemed to me that this must have been a Kannon Hall by all accounts.
We could not find out anything more than that.

I have a feeling that instead of us humans fighting each other during the former movement to abolish Buddhism, Kannon-sama took its place and was hurt and destroyed.
It is a very gentle sanctuary.

I believe that it is the Buddha who is here, as his grave is nearby.

When I visit shrines in Tokyo, I am often amazed at the sanctuaries that have been protected by the people.
Flood, fire, earthquake, war, and worship.
Small shrines, shrines perched on the rooftops of buildings, and shrines directly under expressways.
Sanctuaries that are close to people in any form, and the guardians who protect them.
I made this video to share these beautiful images with you!
The Japanese landscape and the Japanese people of the past remain in old photographs.
Some of the photos are around 100 years old, some are about 150 years old, and some are 85 years old.
Please feel the connection with people from the past!

I remember my hometown.

"I will follow my heart."
Someday I will return home.
Mountains are blue, my hometown.
The water is clear.

Sometimes temples too.
