Henro Pilgrims
2008-04-28 03:35:00
??Listen to the sound of henro chantingA familiar site at the temples of Shikoku are the scores of henro, white-clad pilgrims making their way around the 1,400km pilgrimage route of the 88 Sacred Temples of Shikoku.The pilgrimage covers the island in a clockwise route starting and finishing at Ryozenji Temple near Tokushima. The 88th temple is Okuboji Temple, south of Takamatsu.The pilgrims are following in the footsteps of Kobo Daishi (aka Kukai 774-835), the Buddhist saint and founder of the Shingon school of Buddhism, headquartered at Koyasan in Wakayama Prefecture.Pilgrims have been following in Kobo Daishi's footsteps for over a 1000 years. The first guide book to the trail was written back in 1685. Pilgrims traditionally stayed at temple guest houses (shokubo) along the way and you can find lodgings at shokubo today. Walking the 88 Sacred Temples of Shikoku can take around two months, though many of the henro are now older people who visit the temples by bus over the course o...

Israel And Egypt Clash Over Pilgrims
2008-01-02 20:38:00
The return of thousands of Muslim pilgrims who had made the trip to Mecca and were trying to re-enter Gaza has created a diplomatic crisis between Egypt and Israel. The Egyptian government originally said the pilgrims had to re-enter at the Kerem Shalom crossing which is under Israeli control, but yesterday they changed their minds and allowed the two thousand to cross over in Gaza at a different check point. The Israel authorities claim there were several key Hamas military leaders hidden in the crowd and they were bringing in millions of dollars collected while in Saudi Arabia. Accusations are flying back and forth between the two nations. Perhaps, lost in the acrimonious exchange is a more fundamental issue– how does the peace process involve Hamas? Israel refuses any relationship with Hamas and President Abbas will not work with that group until it restores Gaza to control of his Fatah. Perhaps, it is time for all sides to involve Hamas and get them talking rather than r...

It seems that the Protests and Strike culture is finding its way more and more among the Egyptians and wonderful thing it happens in the last place you would expect This is time outside our national borders , it is in KSA this time in the holy land too during the Pilgrimage !! Surprise is not it ?? 3000 Egyptian Pilgrims members in the official delegation protested yesterday after Friday's  prayer and they even made a siege around the HQ of the officials in the delegation protesting the bad treatment they suffer from in the delegation . It seems that they gave 3000 tents to sleep in made for less this number , the Saudis made the tents for less than 3000 people , for example they gave tents originally for 50 , the delegation assigns the tent to 100 person It is a stupid thing , I mean it won't cost the delegation anything if they request more tents :( Those pilgrims should be angry First of all what is the official delegation ??

Hajj Pilgrims start to gather to the world's most active spiritual energy c
2007-12-04 18:35:00
A place of pilgrimage is where the currents are flowing from the body towards the soul, where the whole atmosphere is charged; from where people have achieved samadhi (supra-conscious state of mystical union), from where people realized their enlightenment.Such places have become specially charged. In such a place, if you just open your sails, without doing nothing else, your journey will begin. - OshoTo testify the Oneness of God and to witness and celebrate the oneness of humanity, people of every nation, every race, every ethnicity, every color are currently preparing and gathering for the sacred pilgrimage to Mecca. As mystic master Osho rightly mentioned about the mystery of the energy of such sacred place, during Hajj, Mecca will become the world's most active spiritually energized center on earth and therefore in our known universe as well. It always remain a profoundly active spiritual energy center with world's one fifth of the population in their daily prayer and devotio...

Better to be despised for too anxious apprehensions than ruined by too confident a security.John BunyanAlan Curbishley is looking ahead to tonight's tie against Plymouth and is sticking by his early season pledge to take the Carling Cup as seriously as possible. The West Ham manager sent out an experienced side in the previous round, which saw Bristol Rovers beaten 2-1 thanks to two Craig Bellamy strikes. Although the loss of Kieron Dyer to a broken leg that night meant victory came at a high cost, Curbishley made it clear he would continue to use a majority of first-choice players in a competition he believes his side can win."I did say after the Bristol Rovers game how disappointed I was after what happened to Kieron but we are in these competitions and we have got to attack them," said Curbishley. "Every now and then a team from outside the top four gets to the final so if you are a team like that then that is what you should be looking to do. We have injuries here but we have g...

A quick glance at today's gossip pages sees that West Ham United were prepared to smash the £100,000 a week barrier to land Adriano. According to the News of the World, the 25 year old was offered a stunning £125,000 - £6.5million a year- to quit Inter Milan but 'turned his nose up' at the Upton Park club's one year loan proposal. The article states Adriano was hawked around several Premier League clubs and was reportedly seeking a four-year deal on £140,000 a week. Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester City were all approached but only the Hammers sent a delegation to meet him. It was after the deal collapsed that Wigan Athletic striker Henri Camara and Newcastle United's Nobby Solano were signed instead. The Sunday Mirror has a similar story but in an 'exclusive' by Paul Smith claims Eggert Magnusson was prepared to match the wage demands in full and a fee of £18million for a permanent transfer had been agreed with Inter Milan. Also in the News of the World is a story that L...

Million pilgrims forced to leave because of fighting in Karbala
2007-08-28 23:25:00
Around one million pilgrims marking the birth of the last Shiite imam have been ordered by the Iraqi police to leave the city of Karbala. The reason behind this decision is the escalating violence between Al-Mahdi Army and the government security forces. The first in a series of gun battles started on Monday, but continued throughout the following day, prompting police to impose a citywide curfew. At least 52 people have been killed so far.Muqtada al-Sadrs Al-Mahdi Army is the biggest armed group in the country, and although its leader is in good relationship with the government, there were indications in the recent months that several senior ground commanders have started to operate independently. Some speculated that as much as one third of all Al-Mahdi Army members are outside of al-Sadrs direct control.Read more about the Karbala clashes in the Al Jazeera article.
