Again, a hasty translation of the accompanying video:
On March 28, high school and college-aged students connected to the faith returned to Jiba to attend the 130th Anniversary of Oyasama Tenrikyo Student Association Pilgrimage to Jiba, which was held in the Inner Courtyard of Tenrikyo Church Headquarters.
The slogan of this year’s event was “Yoboku who will lead in the next generation.” The event attracted 9,266 attendees, the most ever.
The Shinbashira Zenji Nakayama gave an address in which he spoke of how TSA members ought to be and of his hope those attending will grow up to be able to judge matters based on the Tenrikyo faith.
The event ended with the singing of the “image song” Kibo no hana (Flower of hope). The students’ joyful singing resounded in the Inner Courtyard.
