Fudoo Jinja 不動神社 Fudo Shrine



This Fudo in the cave is 安産の仏 helping with a safe birth, when mothers pray to his sword.
A pregnant woman can borrow a wooden sword from the offerings and when the birth is over and all went well, bring it back and offer another one. Looking at the many new swords in the hall, it seems this Fudo is still quite popular.
The statue of Fudo Myo-O is in a 横穴式石室 an ancient stone chamber. Fudo is about 1.45 m high.

- quote
Kabuto (兜, 冑) is a type of helmet first used by ancient Japanese warriors, and in later periods, they became an important part of the traditional Japanese armour worn by the samurai class and their retainers in feudal Japan.

Japanese helmets dating from the fifth century (long before the rise of the samurai class) have been found in excavated tombs. Called mabizashi-tsuke kabuto (visor-attached helmet), the style of these ancient helmets came from China and Korea and they had a pronounced central ridge.

The kabuto was an important part of the equipment of the samurai, and played a symbolic role as well, which may explain the Japanese expressions, sayings and codes related to them. One example is katte kabuto no o o shimeyo (lit. "Tighten the string of the kabuto after winning the war"). This means don't lower your efforts after succeeding (compare to "not to rest on one's laurels").
Also, kabuto o nugu (lit. "to take off the kabuto") means to surrender.

Gootokuji 豪徳寺 Gotoku-Ji

- quote -
Gotokuji is located in the quiet Setagaya Ward of Tokyo, away from the hustle and the bustle of the city.



While there are several legends about the origins of this manekineko cat charm, one of the widely known story regards Gotokuji as the place of origin.
Legend holds that the maneki neko originated back in Edo period, when a feudal lord from Hikone (a city in present-day Shiga Prefecture) passed by a temple in Edo. There, he met a cat that beckoned him to come into the temple. The lord followed the cat and decided to stop by the temple; soon after, a thunderstorm came by. The lord, who took shelter at the temple, became thankful of the cat’s deed; eventually, he collected enough funds to rebuild and claim the temple as his family temple, which eventually became Gotokuji.
As time went on, people began to offer maneki neko figurines to the temple as a sign of gratitude when their wishes came true.

telephone card テレフォン カード
tereka テレカ phone card


Pre-paid phone cards used to be quite popular collector's items, like stamps or postcards, since their introduction around 1980. They often featured interesting scenes, paintings or temples and shrines and were not used for making calls, so the NTT telephone company made a good profit on them.

With the advent of handies and smartphones, they are now out of use, more or less and the public telephones have also mostly vanished.
But pre-paid cards for other services are still in use now and used instead of cash.

Their size is quite convenient and soon o-mamori card お守りカード amulets also used this size, so that they could be carried in the purse or pocket.
