Teachings of Bodhidharma
When I opened a nursing home in Takasaki City, Gunma Prefecture, the first thing that came to my mind was Daruma and Daruma bento.
Is there a large daruma doll in the facility?
I have to confirm.
I haven’t eaten Daruma bento yet.
A nursing home is currently under construction in Shirakawa City, Fukushima Prefecture, and Shirakawa Daruma is also there.
When I looked it up, most prefectures in Japan have daruma dolls.
Come to think of it, all Zen temples have something to do with Bodhidharma.
The shape and beard face are almost the same.
The origin must be related to the local Zen temple.
But now, I think it’s selling very well as a tourist souvenir.
The first thing that comes to mind when thinking about Bodhidharma is the Dharma of an election.
In the old days, TV news showed a scene where the elected person looked at the daruma doll at the election office.
Come to think of it, I haven’t seen it recently.
Is daruma the same as talisman and lottery?
Come to think of it, temples also developed Daruma as a product in order to spread their religion.
I thought the shape was the same all over Japan, but when I looked it up, Niigata’s Daruma dolls are pointed like Santa’s hats.
What is the reason for this?
If lunch boxes are allowed, I wonder if it’s okay to make Ginza Imojin in a Daruma bottle like a brandy bottle.
I can’t guarantee your profit.
I’ve heard that monks in temples drink sake in the name of hannyayu.
Now that I have become a Buddha, I have no connection with him.
