Does it really exist?

I would like to ask you two things

Ghosts etc. are thought of as a type of Gakido in Buddhism, so they exist. There is a way of thinking about reincarnation such as the Rikudo or Godo, so please look up those for details.

Buddhism does not take the idea of an unlucky year. If something bad happens in the three years, including before and after bad, it becomes “ah, after all,” but it's like latecomer Rock Paper Scissors. It doesn't make sense.

By the way, this is completely unrelated, but there is a researcher named David Kiyoshi Abe who has presented research with me. He is a cultural anthropologist whose main field is the coffee belt in the Kona region of Hawaii, which is his hometown. According to him, it seems that Japanese Americans in Hawaii, including this region, often have big parties with people who are 42 unlucky years old. Exorcism is a Shinto event, but since the shrine was destroyed by the US government during the war, it seems that exorcism parties are held at temples. What's interesting is that exorcism parties haven't been held since the first generation, and they are events that became established before you knew it.

According to Abe, it seems that everyone can enjoy using soup stock to ward off evil. Why don't you enjoy unlucky years as a custom without thinking too deeply.

It's natural that there's nothing. but...

If you're worried, I recommend exorcising at a temple just in case.
If you think it's there, don't think it's there.
That's not it.

It's natural that there's nothing. However, it's a problem if Yakujin (god of plague) comes by any chance, so it's safer to exorcise evil.

Your thoughts caught up in it

All of these things are probably images of living people being caught.
Ghosts are also just like being swayed by the worries of living people. It's probably like falling on Gakido.

An unlucky year is probably just a matter of saying that people who care about such things can recover refreshingly through prayers, etc.

Spirits are inner workings

Ghosts are bad relationships between you and others.
There are times when you are resented, disliked, you don't like your partner, and you may be in a bad mood.
It's called a ghost.
Ghosts are negative thoughts, sorrow, suffering, sorrow that haunts your heart...
You're already obsessed, right?
If you don't call it a ghost, where else can you find that kind of uneasy feeling?
An unlucky year is a milestone in the decline of physical strength and energy for men and women in that year, as discovered from the sensitivities of ancient humans.
Bad luck is more likely to occur due to the decline or disturbance of energy.
Therefore, ask them to pray at a temple, feel the presence and work of ancestors, gods, and Buddhas, and relationships with you, and eliminate disturbances.
