The Kimono World’s Dirty Little Secret
On a small island, off the coast of Okinawa in Japan, the world’s most precious kimonos are crafted using a very unusual element: mud. The meticulous technique, which has been practiced for thousands of years, uses mud and dried tree trunks to soak and dye the garments. The result is kimonos that are so high quality, they can last up to three generations.

STORYLINE:
Britain's Prince Charles said on Tuesday that the current financial crisis should not distract the world from the larger issue of global warming.
The credit crunch is rightly a preoccupation of vast significance and importance. But we take our eye off the climate crunch at our peril, he said in a speech at a science museum in Tokyo.
The heir to the British throne is visiting the world's second-largest economy for the first time since 1970.
His arrival coincides with plunging global markets and recession fears.
The prince has made saving the environment the theme of his trip, and spoke on Tuesday after viewing exhibits related to global warming at Japan's National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation.
He called on advanced nations to cut carbon emissions by 70 to 80 percent by the year 2050.
Prince Charles and his wife Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, were greeted by Japanese Emperor Akihito and Empress Michiko at the Imperial palace.
Earlier on Tuesday Prince Charles received a warm welcome in front of the Tokyo museum, as dozens of schoolchildren waving British flags greeted his motorcade.
He sprinkled some local dialect in his speech, beginning with Ladies and gentlemen, konnichi wa, using the Japanese phrase for good afternoon.
He also emphasised the business ties between Britain and Japan, and praised the country for its role in the adoption by many countries of the Kyoto Protocol, while emphasising that further progress was necessary to stave off global warming.

Japanese Sword by Ono Yoshimitsu
Shirakawa - Go Village in Japan.
Shirakawa - Go is a small traditional village located at Ono Disrict, Gifu, Japan. One of the Unesco's World Heritage Site.
Narai Juku - Old Japanese Village in Nagano
Starting to describe a little today's visit in Narai Juku.
This town was one of the stop where people would take a break on their long journey in between Edo (Tokyo) and Kyoko on the Nakasendo 中山道, the mountain pass that connected those 2 main cities at the time.
Nowadays, it is the longest traditional street with inns as it extends to about 1 km.
Don't be fooled by today's visit. I have been extremely lucky that there were so few people. This place is usually packed.
When we visited the inn, I talked about a narrow path (well, not so narrow ;-) I found out reading the leaflet of the inn in the train that this was the indoor alley that enabled to take the horses on the other side where the Naka Niwa 中庭 (courtyard? ) was.
The owner, is at the origin of Narai Juku becoming so well known and popular in Japan and now around the world. He did lots of things in that direction in his 20s. He is the 6th generation of the family who have been owning the house for about 200 years!
The bento boxes that have an oval or round shape are called Menpa.
I checked and I was right. It takes about 3.30 hours by train from Tokyo station.
The price is around 6.800 yen (about 63 dollars, today's rate).
More to come tomorrow, when I feel better!
Thanks for watching!

JAPAN: SAWARA OLD TOWN IN JAPAN
Sawara is located in Katori, Chiba, Japan.
Sawara has been settled since prehistoric times, and has numerous remains of Jōmon period shell middens and Kofun period burial mounds. Traditional events were celebrated every year. Early February to late March they celebrate the Hina Doll Tour also known as Girls Day is a festival to pray for the health and safety of daughters by displaying hina dolls on the Peach Day. Sawara Grand Festival celebration is July and October is traditionally believed in Japan that countless gods and deities live in the country. This is because agriculture, including rice faming, has long played a significant role in the lives of Japanese people. Farmers and others held many festivals to have gods grant their wishes. The Sawara Wife Association organizes the Bon Festival in Sawara in mid-August every year. As part of the event, people release lanterns into the Onogawa River, which runs through central Katori City. That is called Yume Toro Nagashi (Dream lantern releasing). The Suigo Omigawa Fireworks Festival One of the greatest fireworks events in the Kanto region, the traditional Suigo Omigawa Fireworks Festival over the Omigawa River has been lighting up the night sky over the riverside region for more than a century. The annual fireworks festival is held on Aug. 1 on the bank of the Tonegawa River near the Omigawa Ohashi Bridge. Of 8,000 fireworks set off in the festival, the spectacular view of the “on-the-water-surface star mine” and Niagara Falls set fireworks has especially won high praise, attracting more than 150,000 spectators each year.

It’s 1500 years of history and Each Process Requires Advanced Techniques | Echizen Lacquerware
It’s 1500 years of history and Each Process Requires Advanced Techniques | Echizen Lacquerware
Echizen Lacquerware Produced by Groups of Lacquering Masters Called Nushiya with a History of 1500 Years.
The beginning of Echizen lacquerware was about 1500 years ago during the Tumulus Period (6th century). When the 26th Emperor Keitai was still a young prince, he ordered a lacquer artisan at Katayama village (present Katayama-cho in Sabae-shi, Fukui-ken) to repair his crown.
The lacquer artisan not only repaired the prince’s crown but also made the prince a present of a black glazed lacquer bowl. The prince was deeply moved by the ineffable beauty of the bowl and encouraged to start lacquerware manufacturing in Katayama village. This is how today’s Echizen lacquerware was born.
There were also many urushi-kaki (lacquer collecting) workers in Echizen area. Urushi-kaki refers to the workers who cut the surfaces of lacquer trees to collect lacquer. At its peak, the Echizen urushi-kaki workers counted for about half of the total urushi-kaki workers in Japan. It is said that Tokugawa Shogunate ordered the Echizen urushi-kaki workers to collect a tremendous amount of lacquer to build the Nikko Tosho-Gu Shrine. This proves how highly evaluated the Echizen urushi-kaki workers were. These Echizen urushi-kaki workers played a major role in forming of a great production region of Echizen lacquerware.
-------------
Lacquerware manufacturing process and its techniques
Manufacturing process and its characteristics unique to Echizen lacquerware production region
The manufacturing process of Echizen lacquerware has a unique characteristic. That is, the division of labor system is established in the entire production region and the wood base forming process, lacquer applying process, kashoku(decoration) process and other processes are highly professionalized. This system leads to stability in high quality such as its beauty and durability and high production ability of the area.
In addition to the traditional wooden lacquerware, more practical and durable products using synthetic resin materials and chemical coating materials are provided for the customers. Today, the majority of the lacquer products used in catering and restaurant businesses are made of synthetic resin materials and 80 to 90% thereof are manufactured in Echizen lacquerware production region.

REVIEW: Gods and Goddesses of Japan Oracle Cards (Yuriko Ohno, Japan, 2008)
Gods and Goddesses of Japan Cards on Amazon US:
------ This is a review and walkthrough of a Japanese Shinto oracle deck called The Gods and Goddess of Japan Oracle Cards. At the time of the posting of this video, this is the only video of it other than one by Joanne of Sacred Space Japan. It was in her video that I first heard about its existence. Joanne has kindly gifted me a copy recently. As I have related to her, this deck scares me a bit, because for the first time, these oracle cards actually felt like oracles to me. The word oracle has become devalued for me somewhat of late, as I saw streams of decks of cards labelled oracle, which perhaps were more accurately described as something else. At least this is what I think. These oracle cards remind me very much of the oracles my mother and my aunts, uncles, and grandparents used to consult. In temples, shrines, mountains, villages, remote islands and caves. In fact, the handbook lists all locations of the shrines which housed each of these gods and goddesses. For the first time I felt as if I was actually tapping into something. It is not for lack of believes that I have so far chosen not to tap into things. But because I do believe. Tapping into these life forces, ki, or chi (I won't say cards, or images, because those are just the carrier), at least in my mind, psychologically, has been a rather unique and interesting experience for me. Given that I am a monotheist. I also love the reminder of the idea of purification as restoration of ki (chi, life force) rather than to do with cleanliness or lack thereof. The experience which I have had made me feel comfortable enough to recommend to those who are more open than I am right now in working with these things to give this a go. It is refreshingly simple, kind, and easy going without going into the tacky, fluffy, overly diluted, and without the impositions of saccharine induced cringes and the too often felt mass market production rush in the feeling of its substance. It is deep without being overly complex. It does not lecture or patronise. Produced by those native to the culture and belief system, it is not pretentious, well-researched, and is elegantly articulated, even when the English translation can often feel a bit awkward in places. It is steeped in tradition, in time, and the consciousness of a people, the people of Japan, which make this a truly magical gateway to psychospiritual explorations for those with open minds, and open hearts.
A SPECIAL NOTE ON DIVERSITY
A special note to those who found themselves frequently shouting Diversity!: Put your money where your mouth is. Support diverse creators, and open yourselves up to understanding and exploring other people's cultures. Read books. Watch movies or documentaries. Make friends. Have conversations with people who are DIFFERENT from you. Travel (we are living in the age of budget airlines!). Or, check out this deck, and many others out there, created by people from all over the world, from a variety of different cultural and religious backgrounds!
NOTE
** I am an eclectic spiritual explorer with a heavy foundation in Christianity. I do not practice Shintoism and do not have any affiliation with the Japanese pantheon, or culture. There are similarities between Shintoism and the Chinese folk religion of my ancestors. I recognise them, but I am not familiar with them. I grew up Roman Catholic Peranakan Style. That is to say, with a heavy influence of: A mixture of Javanese spiritualism, and Chinese Tao-Buddhism **
