A news video (in Japanese only) about the High School Division of the Students Training Course has been posted on the Tenrikyo Japanese website. Here is a translation of the narration:
On August 9, high school students connected to the path returned to Jiba from across Japan to learn the teachings at the High School Division of the Students Training Course (Gakusei seito shuyokai or gakushu).
A total of 1,358 students attended this time. Students room together throughout the course program, which includes lectures, Service Dance practices, and hinokishin activities. The week-long Students Training Course that allows participants to learn and pray together with their peers as well as deepen ties of faith and friendship, will last until August 15.
