Temples that practise #Shingon #Buddhism, one of the few surviving #Vajrayana lineages in East Asia, perform #goma fire rituals (derived from #Hinduism's #homa) to destroy harmful thoughts and desires, and to seek blessings and the fulfilment of prayers.
#ByodoJi is part of the oldest and largest Shingon sect in #Japan and is a stop on the #Shikoku Pilgrimage trail. Byodo-ji streams its #NewYear goma ritual from midnight:
