pieces of
Yasukuni-jinja
Yasukuni
Shrine
(It is the Tokyo guide to introduce by the image and the column).
It is the shrine to become the topic of conversation in many ways when the summer comes.
Yasukuni-jinja is the shrine which enshrines together "the person who follows death in battle, war wound death and fight death from an illness, or the serviceman and the army family who 殉職ed a government affair and this about the wartime or the incident" under the authorization of the country.
It is only a serviceman and an army family and the civilian who passed away with the war isn't deified.
The Emperor Meiji reared history in the old days in 1869 by the name, "Tokyo Shokonsha shrine", to tell the people who passed away in the Boshin War (the Meiji restoration).
After that, it charged with the fact of "doing a country in the peaceful and quiet Heian and will complete it in the forever peaceful country" in 1879 and it was changed to the name, "Yasukuni".
It makes the person who passed away with the war between the Satsuma Rebellion, Sino-Japanese war, the Russo-Japanese War, World War I, the Manchurian Incident and the Sino incident and each "God" and it is deified.
At present, the God of about 2,460,000 pillars is deified and sometime about 80 percent are the one which passed away with World War II.
Only Yasukuni-jinja was in the direct control of the Department of the Army and navy Ministry until the prewar days.
Because it was necessary so, too, that Yasukuni-jinja was special existence can visit.
It is by the point, the nuisance, that "the prime minister in Japan go and worship at Yasukuni-jinja, being official" is made a problem in going and worshiping at Yasukuni-jinja where the person (Tojo Hideki and so on) who was made the A class war criminal of World War II about Tokyo Tribunal of War Criminals is deified from the neighboring countries such as China.
When proceeding with the story to here, the story spreads to the things such as how it is and the interpretation of being the one where Tokyo Tribunal of War Criminals itself is based on the international law or the article of 11th of the San Francisco peace gets not to come to an end of the discussion.
For details of (, it is positive "SIKU" in the history which the Japanese struggled against which is in Yasukuni-jinja.
A brochure and so on are put on (quotation) pavilion "the 遊就 building" (from the brochure at the Yasukuni-jinja shrine office) which is built to have understand but we ask that it inspects with the objective eyes .).
Only, for the family of the deceased of the general war dead, it thinks that the memorial in the obedient feelings to the people who went so in the meaning which lost a noble family under the supreme order in the country will be a necessary thing.
The proposal such as not being good is rising if making it be possible by setting up the cemetery of a country people who passed away with the war with the person who found out a war by causing it separately to go and worship respectively based on the free will of the individual.
Way, Aizu-han which was made an Emperor's enemy by the Boshin War by the main shrine and Saigo Takamori who started a rebellion by the Satsuma Rebellion aren't deified but Aizu-han and Saigo Takamori are deified with the person killed in action of the foreigner of the all the countries with the people who aren't deified at the main shrine in the 鎮霊 Inc. which is in the corner in the precincts.
