After the greetings, pictures!

A bit late compared to other blogger friends, best wishes to our loved ones after Claudia and Yuichiro for their marriage, it is time to put some of my photos online event!

The beginning, as is only right, it is the encounter of the couple at the entrance of the Capitol. A stolen picture a little, but that seems to make the set of emotion, expectation and tension of the moment.

Nicola Below we see the best man, with Shiho-chan. You guys are a great couple!
This picture has become one of the header of the blog of Nicholas, a little satisfaction for me, although I must say that the merits of the success of the picture is all of the actors!

A drizzle, fortunately fleeting, tried to disrupt the day (for the record ame-otoko-onna are flying), but Gianluca and Kanako (true deans of bloggers nippofili) were well prepared for any eventuality!
pity that this picture has come a bit too dark ...

Below, however, a fine quartet with her husband in the company of Mario and Mizuho , parents of young beautiful Sayuri-chan, mascot of the true symbol of marriage and all the beautiful Italian and Nipponese!

Mizuho deserves a special thanks from me and Faith, because he acted as interpreter Real-time Watanabe-san's father Yuichiro that a gentleman wanted to chat with all the guests and with whom we dwelt pleasantly talking about our Sardinia, which he wants to know what we want to deepen our experience Japan.



Our heroes exit the Capitol, in one shot "Python and Swarovski" (definition of Claudia), shortly before undergoing the ritual stoning .... in short, the launch of the rice that we Italians well know and dread.



As you can imagine, we are here to post shooting. Yuichiro's brother tries in vain to eliminate the rice tuck everywhere ... studies at the University "La Sapienza" have found grains of rice on newlyweds who joined in marriage 35 years before: D
Irony aside, I really liked this shot: I find a moment of family affection and very spontaneous and universal joy.

Finally, a photo more "ritual": the classic cake cutting to ' Hotel Majestic Via Veneto !

E 'the beginning of a new story, backed up and cradled by the presence of many similar stories, families and friends, and I wish him all the best of our "two worlds"!

Before leaving, a thought for all others, by accident Not in the picture: Tore & Chiaki , Mark, the best man Haruko , which we hope to have a chat in the future (marriage did not present an opportunity :-( ) and many others!
As I write, the couple have already returned from their honeymoon and Claudia touched down in Tokyo, bringing down there a bit of all of us.

I do not know when and where, but we shall meet again, and will be always great as this time. A hug to all of you from Andrea & Federica.

Wwe What Are The Strings On The Ring Post For

11 Ottobre 2007 - Kamakura - Hase Dera (Hase-dera Temple Mount Institute 慈照 海光) - 2

leaving the Jizo-do and traveled another short flight of stairs, you reach the heart of religious Overall, the set of rooms made up of a Kannon-do, and and Amida-do-do Daikoku, in addition to ' Kyozo , archive sutra of the temple.

The history of the Kannon-do is tied to a legend dating from the early eighth century.


The Legend of Monaco Tokudo Shonin and camphor tree.

It is said that in 721 the monaco Tokudo Shonin discovered a large camphor tree forests on the mountains around Nara . The trunk was so large that it allows you to make two large statues of the goddess Kannon. The statue taken from the lower trunk was taken to temple near Nara Hase , while the larger of the two statues, carved in the upper torso was thrown into the sea near present-day Osaka, accompanied by the prayers of his miraculous return to the mainland, so that could save the people.
Fifteen years later, the night of 18 June 736, it was found in Nagai beach along the Miura Peninsula , not far from Kamakura. It is said that upon finding it exudes an aura of light.
The statue was moved to Kamakura, and was built around it the whole dell'Hase, which bears the same name of the temple containing the statue of Nara mate.

Kannon-do
The statue of Kannon, more than 9 meters high, is situated in the room, the very heart of the temple. It has eleven heads over to the main one, three on the forehead, three on the left, three right and one above his head and back, each with a different expression dedicated to listening to different people's needs. The statue of camphor wood was covered with gold leaf in 1342, while the great aura was added in 1392. Although Kannon is often seen as a female deity, it is a sexless deity, Avalokitesvara a Bodishisattva, consumption for general lighting and is mercy, compassion and love.



Above you can see the roofs of the Kannon-do.

Amida-do

Next to the Kannon-do is a room with a statue of Amida Buddha Yakuyoke , protector from evil spirits, commissioned in 1194 by Minamoto Yoritomo , the first shogun.

On the right-of starch, there is a large bronze bell, which beats every December 31 of the 108 strokes joya-no-kane, the ritual by which the sufferings of humanity are lost .

Proceeding to the left of the entrance of the Kannon-do, there is a small museum ( Homotsu -kan) and the room Daikoku-do and repository for sutras Kyozo .

Daikoku-do this room also contains a statue, a picture of Daikokuten, Homotsu replica of the original placed in the museum nearby. Daikokuten is another of the seven gods of fortune, goddess of abundance, or even better than the good harvest.

Kyozo

The archive room of the sutras is smaller and more decentralized than the other. Inside is a Rinzi , the large cylinder with hundreds of wooden shelves designed to accommodate the rolls of the sutra. Both me and Federica we did do a complete turn to Rinzi: it is traditional to think that making this little ritual right to acquire the wisdom of the sutras it contains.
If people are visiting is not great and there is enough silence, the experience is really fascinating!

The visit to the temple Hase, however, is not only an experience of a cultural or religious, is an immersion in an incredible, lush nature, and during good seasons can get a beautiful dark green dotted with dozens of different flowers, in a burst of color and scent that has few equals in the world.
Another staircase leads to several vantage points hidden in the countryside.
Here and there, a small statue or lantern will draw your attention, not until your view will span the bay that can be glimpsed through the branches of trees or dense bamboo.

Bay Kamakura.

The statues of these little monks tell us that a certain inclination to stylized graphics from the Japanese goes back to distant periods of its history and is in no way an invention of the media of our time - anime and manga in the first place - which, rather, constitute the most recent reading.
