Japanese: 五山（ござん）とは、中国・日本における禅林（禅宗寺院）の格式であり、十刹・諸山の上。
English: The term is said to have originated from the fact that Neiso of the Southern Sung Dynasty protected the five temples of Keizan, Unin, Tendo, Joji, and Ikuo as "gozan" (literally, five mountains), in emulation of India's five Shoja and ten pagodas (The Five Shoja of India).
Japanese: 元は南宋の寧宗_(宋)がインドの5精舎10塔所（天竺五精舎）の故事に倣って径山・雲隠・天童・浄慈・育王の5寺を「五山」として保護を与えたのが由来と言われている。

Japanese: 同様に後醍醐天皇の建武の新政においても「五山」が制定され、南禅寺と大徳寺の両寺が五山の筆頭とされ、東福寺と建仁寺が含まれていた。

Japanese: その後、室町幕府を開いた足利尊氏は、天竜寺を建立したが、天竜寺を五山に加えることを望んだ。
English: For this, the Northern Court (in Japan) issued an inzen (decree from the retired Emperor) in 1341 to entrust Takauji with the selection of gozan temples.
Japanese: これに対して北朝_(日本)は暦応4年（1341年）に院宣を出して尊氏に五山の決定を一任した。
English: Then in the same year Takauji selected Nanzen-ji Temple and Kencho-ji Temple for the first grade gozan, Enkaku-ji Temple and Tenryu-ji Temple for the second grade gozan, Jufuku-ji Temple (in Kamakura) for the third grade gozan, Kennin-ji Temple (in Kyoto) for the fourth grade gozan, Tofuku-ji Temple (in Kyoto) for the fifth grade gozan, and Jochi-ji Temple (in Kamakura) for the quasi-gozan (ranked lower than the temples described above).
Japanese: これに応えて同年に尊氏は第一位に南禅寺・建長寺、第二位に円覚寺・天竜寺、第三位に寿福寺（鎌倉）・第四位に建仁寺（京都）・第五位に東福寺（京都）・准五山（次席）に浄智寺（鎌倉）を選定した。

Japanese: これ以後、五山の決定及びその住持の任免権は足利氏征夷大将軍個人に帰するという慣例が成立することになる。
English: Later in 1358, the second shogun Yoshiakira ASHIKAGA revised the above specification, and raised the grade of Jochi-ji Temple to that of fifth gozan.
Japanese: その後、延文3年（1358年）に2代将軍足利義詮がこれを改訂して浄智寺を第五位に昇格させた。
English: In addition, he added Jomyo-ji Temple in Kamakura and Manju-ji Temple in Kyoto to the fifth grade gozan, increasing the number of fifth grade gozan temples to four, resulting in five temples in both Kyoto and Kamamura being set as gozan temples.
Japanese: それとともに同じく第五位に鎌倉から浄妙寺、京都からは万寿寺を加えて計4寺として京都と鎌倉からそれぞれ5寺ずつが五山に選ばれた。
English: After that, Yoshimitsu ASHIKAGA, the third shogun, added Rinsen-ji Temple to the gozan temples at the request of Shogunal Deputy Yoriyuki HOSOKAWA between 1377 and 1379.
Japanese: その後、3代将軍足利義満の時代に管領細川頼之の要望を聞き入れて臨川寺を五山に加える（永和(日本)3年（1377年）-康暦元年（1379年））
English: However, after building Shokoku-ji Temple as his family temple, Yoshimitsu reformed the gozan system drastically on July 10 (in the old calendar) 1386 taking into account the opinions of Shushin GIDO, Chushin ZEKKAI and others in the following way: "A status above gozan" should be given to Nanzen-ji Temple, placing the temple at the highest rank of all Zen temples, and in its place Sokoku-ji Temple should be included among the gozan temples, while furthermore, the gozan status was divided into Kyoto gozan and Kamakura gozan.
Japanese: ところが、義満が足利将軍家の菩提寺として相国寺を建立すると、至徳(日本)3年7月10日_(旧暦)（1386年）に義堂周信・絶海中津らの意見を容れて五山制度の大改革を断行、南禅寺を「五山の上」として全ての禅林の最高位とする代わりに相国寺を「五山」に入れ、更に五山を京都五山と鎌倉五山に分割した。
English: It is an act based on a tradition that people and heavenly gods scattered flowers to celebrate the descents of Buddha and Bosatsu (Bodhisattva).
Japanese: 仏や菩薩が来迎した際に、讃嘆するために大衆や天部の神により華を降らしたという故事にちなんで行われる。
English: A typical example is the story of Judobonshi (previous existence of Shakamuni) performing kuyo by scattering flowers over Nento-butsu (Buddha Burning Torch).
Japanese: 釈迦仏の前世である儒童梵士（じゅどうぼんし）が燃燈仏に華を散らして供養した話などはその代表的な例である。
English: It is said that sange at Buddhist memorial services is intended to ward off evil and purify the dojo (place of Buddhist practice or meditation) by the scent of flowers before welcoming Buddha.

English: At Nyubutsu Kaigen (the ceremony to consecrate a newly made Buddhist statue) and rakkei hoyo (a memorial service to celebrate the construction of a temple) of temples, a large amount of sange is scattered, making an impressive scene.
Japanese: また入仏開眼や寺院の落慶法要では大量の散華が撒かれ、見ごたえがある。
English: Originally, Japan has a tradition of finding beauty in transience as seen in 'mono no aware (the sadness or pathos of things)' affected by Mujokan (Buddhist concept of the impermanence of worldly things) in Buddhism.
Japanese: もともと日本には仏教の無常観の影響を受けた「もののあはれ」など儚さを美しく感じる風土があった。
English: Because cherry blossoms are quick to fall and remind transience, they became the symbol of sange.
Japanese: すぐに散る桜の花は儚さを象徴したため散華のシンボルに使われることとなった。
English: In particular, it refers to someone who sacrifices his/her life to save others in battle (regardless of the result).
Japanese: 特に、他を守るためや救うために犠牲となるような形(結果はともあれ形式上)で戦死することを指す。
English: Sange is often used synonymously as gyokusai, but it is more often used for death of a member in the special attack units.
Japanese: 時に玉砕とほぼ同義に使われるが、特別攻撃隊による戦死においてはこの表現が用いられることが多い。
English: However, death of an officer who has the title of general or upper ranks is referred to as sange regardless of how he died.
Japanese: ただし、将官級の軍人が死亡した場合はどのような形で死亡してもこう呼ぶことがある。
English: When a Japanese soldier was killed in duty, by accident, by war damage such as an air raid, died of illness, or when a soldier other than Japanese was killed in action, the term sange is not usually used.
Japanese: なお、日本兵でも殉職や事故・病死、空襲等による戦災死、他国兵士が戦死した時は散華とは通常言わない。
English: On the contrary, camellia is not favored because all the camellia flower petals falling at once is compared to a 'fallen head,' and associated with beheading of a criminal.

Japanese: 志度寺（四国八十八箇所）のように海沿いの霊場や、弁天洞窟（東京都稲城市）のような地下霊場も存在する。
English: Furthermore, recently places where many people died in wars have been treated as reijo.
Japanese: また、近年では戦争などで多くの人が犠牲となった場も霊場の扱いを受ける。
English: For this reason, many reijo where furious battles were fought are also located outside Japan, and groups of pilgrims from Japan visit these reijo every year to hold memorial services.

Japanese: 宗派により違いがあるが、一般に、先ず指ひとつまみの少量の塗香を左手に受け、右手の人差し指と中指に少しつけ、口に含む。
English: Next, the incense is rubbed a few times on both hands, and later, it is applied to the chest (actually on the robe) with the hands.
Japanese: 次に香を両手で数度磨り合わせ、その後、その両手で胸（実際は衣の上）に当て塗る。

English: However, especially Daihoyo (Daieshiki) held once every ten years is called 'Shoryoe,' and Bugaku, which observes the tradition of Nanto division of Sanpo gakuso, is also dedicated.
Japanese: が、とくに10年に1度行われる大法要（大会式）は「聖霊会」とよばれ、やはり三方楽所南都方の伝統を受け継ぐ舞楽が奉納される。
English: Daisaitogoma ceremony refers to large-scale Goma (Holy Fire) Mass held in the field.
Japanese: 大柴燈護摩供（だいさいとうごまく）とは、野外で行う大規模な護摩法要のことである。
English: The traditional Saitogoma is said to have been held for the first time by Shobo Rigen Daishi, a disciple of a disciple of Kukai, who established the Shingonshu sect, and it is mostly held by the temples inheriting the lineage of the Tozan school of Shugendo (Japanese mountain asceticism-shamanism incorporating Shinto and Buddhist concepts) including Daigo-ji Temple.
Japanese: 伝統的な柴燈護摩は真言宗を開いた空海の孫弟子に当たる聖宝理源大師が初めて行ったといわれており、醍醐寺をはじめとする真言宗の当山派修験道の法流を継承する寺院で行われる事が多い。
English: Saitogoma' held by the temples of the traditional Shingonshu sect Tozan school is originally an ascetic practice in the mountain performed only by practitioners, which does not regard the scale or the number of Gomagi (pieces of wood for ritual burning).

Japanese: また、阿含宗の大柴燈護摩と、伝統的な真言宗系当山派修験道の柴燈護摩の違いについてはそれぞれ主催者側の主張が異なる。
English: The reason why the character 柴 (brushwood) is used for saitogoma (柴燈護摩) of the traditional Shingonshu sect Tozan school is that they made a ceremonial mound with brushwood and firewood because they could not decorate even esoteric tools due to the ascetic practice in the mountain.
Japanese: 伝統的な真言宗系当山派の柴燈護摩に柴の字が当てられているのは、山中修行で正式な密具の荘厳もままならず、柴や薪で檀を築いたことによる。
English: The Goma Ritual in the field held by the Tendaishu sect Honzan school is called '採燈護摩' (saitogoma), because it was held with the fire picked ('採取') from the saitogoma of the Shingonshu sect Tozan school, and the character is used in it.
Japanese: なお、天台宗系本山派が行う野外の護摩供養は、「採燈護摩」というが、真言宗系当山派の柴燈護摩から「採取」した火により行われたので、その字が当てられるようになった。
English: Shinnyoen, a new religion alleging that they belong to the lineage of the Esoteric Buddhism of Daigo-ji Temple, calls it '斉燈護摩' (saitogoma) using the character 斉.
Japanese: また、醍醐寺の密教の法流を汲んだと主張する新宗教の真如苑では、斉の字を当てて「斉燈護摩」と呼称している。
English: The biggest Daisaitogoma ceremony in Japan would be 'The fire rite festival Agon's Hoshi Matsuri: Shinto-Buddhist Daisaitogoma ceremony,' which is overwhelmingly large-scale with more than 30 million Gomagi to fire and hundreds of thousands of visitors, held in Omine, Kitakazan, Yamashina Ward, Kyoto City on February 11 each year.
