Sunday Goma

The "Ume no Hana" in Wakachiai, Wakayama, is a self-help group for bereaved families who have lost loved ones to suicide. In recent years, they have also engaged in self-help group activities for bereaved families who have lost loved ones to illness or accidents. Every year, a memorial service is held at Koyasan University to memorialize the deceased.

On Sundays, the 22nd temple of the Shikoku Pilgrimage, Byodoji Temple, conducts the Yakushi Goma Fire Offering Ceremony to the main statue of the Yakushi Nyorai Buddha. They follow the traditional ritual of the Chuinryu sect, which is often practiced at Mt. Koya. They also offer consecration and blessings for amulets and talismans, so feel free to inquire.
