At Toba Kenjin Kannonji Temple, I held a flower festival with everyone of the 2nd Toba City Aozora Nursery School. April 4, Reiwa 8 It is currently operated as a temple managed by Taieji Temple. In front of the Jizo in the precincts of Kannonji Temple, which has a relationship with Kobo Daishi Kukai, we held a flower festival. This flower festival continues with a strange fate. The relationship began when the teachers told me about "Kasa Jizo" at the nursery school and actually came to see Jizo at Kannonji Temple. I was talking about it when I was pulling grass, and later I had the opportunity to do a paper play of "Kasa Jizo" in front of Mr. Jizo. Then, a little before April 8th, the previous principal contacted me to ask if I was holding a flower festival, and I replied that I would try somehow, and I cut cherry blossoms and flowers and offered flowers to everyone as I did last year, just like this year. In addition, in the story of the birth of the Buddha, "There is a petal that falls from the sky in admiration, and since it is as precious as the Buddha, I scattered the petals over everyone's heads in the same way. I wanted it to be a memory, so I made it an experiential puja. Jizo and Buddha I am explaining to everyone that you took a picture of the flower festival puja from behind I am holding flowers and walking in front of the Buddha I am pouring water instead of sweet tea You are putting your hands together with warm eyes You are pouring water instead of sweet tea 2 I am scattering the petals of fresh flowers above my head At the end, a group photo (I presented one red stamp with the words "Flower Festival Commemoration". All fresh flowers were presented as a souvenir. I read the confession I made before reading the sutra at the puja. Full text introduction Flower Festival Puja Confession Humble and respectful, I speak to the compassionate and vast Jizo Bodhisattva and Shakyamuni Buddha. Today, we are here to welcome the peak of spring flowers. Together with everyone at Toba City Aozora Nursery School, I would like to celebrate the birth of Buddha. If you look at it, long before he left the present, Buddha was born in the flower garden of Lumbini. (Suga's original text is Sugawara Fumitoki) is "who(Sauce)Water(Water)Without a heart, it is a dense glossy presence(It's a joen.)Meba wave color(Namiiro)I will not change." Just as even mindless water changes its color when the shadow of a flower is reflected, the noble birth of Buddha completely changes the scenery of this world, pouring rain of nectar from heaven, the joy that boils from the earth warmly envelops all living things, and dyes the heart in the depths of confusion with the color of compassion. The Buddha pointed and showed the teachings of "Heaven and Heaven and Heaven are the only one" and "Everyone's precious life". Hopefully, those who will gather at this Kannon Temple. Receiving this beautiful spring scene and the Buddha's loving gaze, reflecting the color of compassion in his pure heart, he walks the right path of self-interest and altruism, as beautiful as a flower, as healthy as bamboo, and as flexible as a willow. I bow down and beg. I will shine the light of mercy everywhere and watch over the healthy growth of the kindergarten children April 8, Reiwa 8th year Taieji Temple training head Kenji Hoshino I respectfully confess here.
