Mountain windows scan the deep valley; Graves of pine line the evening streams. We have asked to our feast the distant envoy; At this table of parting we try the pleasures of poetry. The crickets are hushed, the cold night wind blows;Geese fly beneath the clear autumn moon. We offer this flower-spiced wine in hopes To beguile the cares of your long return. Abe no Hironiwa (Early Eighth Century) TORII ARCH The Torii Arch shown on our cover is one of six types of Japanese arch. It literally means "bird's nest" but is interpreted to mean "nest of one's soul." The Torii is the gateway to Shinto Temples. Before passing under a Torii, the Okinawan bows and rinses his hands in a bowl of water. He walks to the shrine and stops in front of it bowing twice, then saying a prayer. Before leaving he bows once more. This rite is a major part of the Shinto religion. Until the Second World War and the American Occupation, all of the Okinawans were Shintoists. We have selected the Torii Arch, or entrance, for our cover, because it is our entrance or portal for your visit tonight.
