Matsuri at 鉄砲洲稲荷神社
2008-05-07
How are you guys?I had been staying at my parents-in-law's house in Tokyo during my holidays. At that time, a Matsuri Festival was just held at a nearby shrine. This festival is held every 3 years. I'd like to tell you about the Matsuri festival I saw, today.
This Matsuri festival has been held to give thank to God from ancient time.
Can you see the thing guys are shouldering in these pictures? This is called Mikoshi.We regard it as a ride for God. We should a Mikoshi to worship God when we have a Matsuri.
The festival had been held for 3 days. At the last day, feeling over the festival got to ran high. The last night at the festival especially climaxed. Mikoshi was enshrined at the shrine again and we will not able to see it until 3 years later.
旦那の実家近くの鉄砲洲稲荷神社で３年に１度の大祭りが開催されました。神輿は神社を出発し、銀座の歌舞伎座までわっしょい、わっしょいと担がれました。歌舞伎座の前はすごい人だかりでした。 神輿を担ぐ際の掛け声、「わっしょい」の由来は諸説あるようですが、興味深かったのが、「和し背負へ」が変化して「わっしょい」になったというのがありました。和を以て貴しと為すという日本の精神が息づいていますな。
って英語で書きたかった....。あぁ、頭が働かない。休みボケを吹き飛ばすべく、御神輿わっしょーいの動画をupしてみます。I'll up date this movie I shot for the first time.
