مراسم دعا برای سلامتی و برکت به روش بودايي( با بشقاب های مخصوص )  در ژاپن ...

Japanese women kneel with Horoku plates and burning moxa on their heads during Buddhist prayers for good health in a traditional summer ritual of Buddhist Nichiren followers, held during the hottest season of the year, at Ikegami Honmonji Temple in Tokyo July 21, 2004. A talisman is placed on the head, over which the plate is positioned amid prayers. The event has been carried out since feudal times when people prayed in this way for overall good health and for the removal of goblins believed to cause headaches. REUTERS/Eriko Sugita
