Traditional dreams with " Dance " Japanese calligraphy




  While more than 400 years in remote place, apostles have inherited the manners and customs.
  Anyone has hardly looked. Nobody has almost been here.

  It's mysterious, but here is the place where Christianity was first introduced into Japan.





  Religion and culture. Those all harmonized peacefully all the time.
  Churches, Temples and Shinto shrines

  Each other's the respect.






  The treasure will be succeeded to from now on.
  It is their soul.

  lovely.

  松尾 芭蕉 (1644 – 1694)

  parting the time  hang on shade  summer half-coat

   "舞" (bu, or mau). It is translated as dance, posture, prance, brandish, etc.
   This character is written by Kanzi, Semi-cursive script.

   Etymology : Ideogrammic compound
    無 (nothing) + 舛 (steps)


   The innocent dance is noble.
   They are the incarnations.

   The drum, the gong, the flute, the song.
   Those the tones, the sound, the beating.

   All will be resonant mentally.

   小林 一茶  (1763 - 1827)

   congratulations  feel good news  this morning autumn

  The festival enlivens my blood.
  A certain something is recalled in subconsciousness.
