Shichigosan is a temple or a shrine
Shichigosan is one of the important events for the family.
Shichigosan is supported by both temples and shrines, but which should be done?
Here, we will look at the Shichigosan in the temple.
▼ Shichigosan is OK at both temples and shrines
From the conclusion, it is not decided whether Shichigosan should be a temple or a shrine.
Just remember that each teaching is different.
■ The teachings of the temple are Buddhism
The teachings of shrines are Shinto, and the teachings of temples are Buddhism.
In Shinto, it is said that the local god, the god of origin, protects children.
In temples, that is, Buddhism, it is said that Buddhas and ancestors protect their children.
Remember that Shichigosan at the temple is a gratitude to the Buddha and his ancestors.
■ How to do it at a temple
Let's touch on the manners when visiting a temple.
Enter the premises after giving a bow or holding a palm in front of the main gate.
Next, clean your hands and mouth at the Chozuya.
Make a donation at the main hall, close your eyes, put your hands together and pray quietly.
■ Children play a leading role in Shichigosan
Of course, the protagonist of Shichigosan is a child.
You can see the feeling of Shichigosan at a famous temple, but don't force your children.
Even if you don't, you should choose a temple that is close to your hometown or home because you are dressed in a clever way.
If the child looks exhausted, the Buddha and his ancestors will be worried.
