Grandfather said:<br />"Today is the middle day of higan 彼岸 the equinox celebrations. Our children will certainly come and bring some food and offerings." But nobody came and grandfather went to have a look. When he came back he said:<br />"I was quite furious, so I took their children and threw tham in the fire!"<br />The Rokubu thought this was quite strange, but said nothing and went to sleep. When he woke up next morning, he realized he had been sleeping on a family grave.<br />When he found the village and the home of the family, he heard that one child had been badly burned last night.<br />This was the punishment for not giving offerings to the ancestors. <br />.<br />https://gokurakuparadies.blogspot.jp/2017/10/rokubu-pilgrims-02-aichi.html<br />.<br />more than 100 legends to explore<br />.Gabi Grevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16362456518166174106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11660576.post-85301767994907651642013-07-31T13:26:45.323+09:002013-07-31T13:26:45.323+09:00Yosa Buson
