Shusho-e (New Years Day) Service

Picture

January 1st

     Originating about 1,300 years ago in Japan, Shusho-e was originally celebrated annually to welcome the gods of harvest and the spirits of ancestors who protect their families.  Today, the purpose of the service—celebrated on New Years Day—is to not only pray for peace and harmony of a nation but also for a long, healthy life for everyone.  People who visit Koyasan the first three days of the new year often purchase new amulets and fortunes to renew their lives with a fresh start.
