Goma Ritual<\/h4>\n

\"\u8b77\u6469\u4fee\u884c\"<\/p>\n

Goma, or\u00a0<\/span>homa<\/i><\/span> in Sanskrit, means to burn. This ceremony represents the burning of bonnou, which is the source of suffering, by Buddha\u2019s fire of wisdom.<\/span><\/p>\n

For the Goma Ritual, a platform is set up with various offerings in front of the Fud\u014d My\u014d-\u014d. Then, a special firewood named Goma-ki is burnt down, and mantras are chanted in Mikky\u014d\u2019s characteristic prayers.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Goma fire is the symbol of wisdom, and the firewood represents bonnou<\/span>\u00a0(the<\/span>\u00a0source of suffering). \u00a0Through the Goma Ritual, the bonnnou represented by firewood is burned down by Fud\u014d My\u014d-\u014d\u2019s fire of wisdom, and along with the believers, their wishes are purified while they pray for their fulfillment.<\/span><\/p>\n
