Mimimi prepare to fulfill their destiny
To be worthy in mind and body, instead of just cool and crazy
Also, to have you notice them

Today we did sitting meditation and the waterfall ⛺️
This is our gallant image in the hour of waterfall training.
The defilements of 2016 are finally
Washed away here.
Four months until the release of Kachiikusa!
We're looking forward to it!!
I want you to spread the word
That a band like this exists!!
Wut? [ Record needle scratch SFX ] Back up.

Good for a smile BTW: the phone footage from the 13th January, of themspazzing frisking
around on their way to Nagano just when a big snowstorm hit Niigata prefecture.

Waterfall training. That's where you practice your spiritual discipline
while being pounded by a waterfall, isn't it?
Waterfall training is held in summer.
Everyone in the boys' section, do your best!
August is one thing, boys. Try January.
The band live-streamed their day of zen, but I couldn't join them.
No matter, the edited version is on YouTube.
Mikkai to Miminari Spiritual Training Project
First Shot –January– "Waterfall Training"
2017 JAN 26 by 密会と耳鳴り (13:38)
Documentary video of going for spiritual training, leading up to the release of
Kachiikusa (Victory in Battle), the 2nd mini-album from Osaka's Violence Punk
band Mikkai to Miminari. As the first step, January, we took on zen meditation,
waterfall training!! Kachiikusa will be released in May! We will train for
5 consecutive months.
00:00 Arrival at the zendo
01:34 Registration paperwork
01:45 The head priest begins the orientation
02:15 Hase has fallen asleep in the meeting
02:26 Move to the meditation hall
02:30 10 minutes recitation of sutras
02:46 20 minutes silent sitting meditation
03:00 The priest delivers a wake-up whack to Mel
03:12 That smarts
03:24 My leg is broken
03:40 At last, the Waterfall Training! Preparatory instruction
03:58 Moving outdoors to the falls
04:24 Show of fists. Here we go…
04:35 Waaaaaaah, the falls
04:43 Running to make body heat
05:04 Uncut footage from here on
05:07 Gowned, thanking the guardian of the falls for favor
05:30 Chako is shivering, Mel is hoping, Hase is laughing, Yone is first!
05:33 Preliminary wetting: HOLY SHIT IT'S COLD IT'S COLD IT'S COLD
06:02 Waterfall Challenge!!
06:24 Praying in an icy torrent: I have never been happier
07:34 Thank you for this unforgettable minute
07:40 Chako's turn at bat
07:48 THAT is the spirit of the waterfall training!
08:40 I feel like a kitten in an ice storm
09:08 THANK YOU!
09:15 Drummer Mel is next; not to be outdone
09:30 Instinctively tried to keep the water off her head
10:00 So this is what dying is like
10:40 Onegaishimasu, let me out of here
10:42 This way to the brazier
10:51 No thought for anything but warming up
10:52 Hase is on
10:56 Still sounds sleepy
11:15 OK, obviously I didn't really plan these shots
11:20 The roll-cake didn't kill me, this will not kill me
12:12 Too numbed to throw a decent fist
12:13 I'll say my thanks as I hightail it to the fire
12:18 Can't seem to walk properly
12:30 Welcome, you have passed through to the afterlife
12:44 Piece of cake — we did it!
12:49 Now I'll share with you that the stream is 4° above freezing
13:00 Ascetic practice safely over; how was it, girls?
13:15 I admit I was a little worried, but we're all safe and sound
13:20 Yone is not over it at all
13:22 Italian viewers have mixed reactions
13:26 Thanks for your support! Next is karaoke.
13:38 Cheering

Now that you've seen how exciting this is, I know you're thinking
about your own visit to the zendo.
It's called Shoukouji, a Buddhist temple in the hills of Kawachi-nagano,
maybe 25km southeast of Sakai City in greater Osaka.
JP Wikipedia entry, it's not much
Also known as Katsushige Tadashi Fudo Katsukoji, the "Ruler Over Victory And Defeat
Wisdom King Ray of Light Buddhist Temple".
The temple encourages everyone to come for a dip under the waterfall as the kind of
discipline you need for a life described as "a cauldron of the struggle to survive."
Shoukouji temple homepage
syokoji.jp/index.html
Head priest Iimoto Omihama lectures on the themes of prosperity and winning at commerce,
and conducts workshops for job-seekers and companies looking for more success. His interest
developed out of extreme challenges faced by the business he formerly owned and operated.
Iimoto Omihama profile at System Brain
sbrain.co.jp/keyperson/K-12179.htm
In 2004 he left all that to his sons, to succeed Imoe Ikimoto who founded the temple some years
after a life-altering vision in 1956 of its ferocious principal deity, the Wisdom King himself.
Remember him from the statue they talked to down by the waterfall?
"I am the god of winning and losing, and the immovable king in charge of the game of this world."
