Ancestor memorial services are so important!

❇️I have read a book called “Ancient Cities” by a French historian called Festal de Coulanges before.

It is said that nothing has had as much of an impact on Japan as this book did during the Meiji era👍.

 

It introduces the “image of the family in ancient Greece” in detail.

The content of the description was very surprising😯.

 

Festel offers the following insight into what the ancient Greeks sought in the ultimate bond between family and community🤓.

 

"It is not easy to fix a social bond between human beings who are so diverse, so free-spirited, and so unpredictable.

 

In order to give them a common set of rules and make them submit to the public good,

something stronger than physical force,

something more precious than self-interest,

something more reliable than philosophical theory,

something more permanent than rules, is needed.

 

It must take root equally in the hearts of all people,

and reign with immense power.

 


For ancient Greece,

it was an “ancestor ritual” 🙏🙏🙏.

 

Even in ancient Greece, the fact that the “ancestor ritual” was considered an important ceremony and functioned to unite the hearts of the people is surprising and at the same time, it truly makes sense. 👍🍀。

 

The scene in front of the Buddha during the equinoctial week made me realize the meaning and importance of ancestor worship 🤓.

However, as you all know, the ties between family graves and the family temple are gradually becoming thinner and weaker, whether in the countryside or in the city 😥.

If you focus too much on the existence of the “individual”, you will lose sight of “your current position within the larger framework” 🧐.


The connection from the past and the passing of the baton of the heart to the future are the most important things,

but if you think of the family temple, the grave, and human existence as plants, they would be considered the “roots” 🙏.

By nourishing the “roots”, the whole tree will become healthy and grow bigger.

Ancestor worship 🙏 and ancestor rituals 🙏 are what cultivate the roots👍.

At the same time, they are the key to firmly binding each person's heart🔑.
