The report of pilgrimage on foot through the 88 sacred places of Shikoku in 2004
****************************************************************

I started to pilgrimage on foot on March 12, 2004.
I had intended to make all through this pilgrimage on foot, and it was completed on April 22, and after that I made the salutation worship on foot on April 23.
The total distance of my walking pilgrimage was almost 1200km and required duration was forty-three days.
On April 24, I went to the Koyasan temple by electric train, after worship I returned home.
A signpost for pilgrimage at some where said gWhen people walk the pilgrimage path spending money and time, they express their gratitude to the pain and the fatigue.h
In this pilgrimage I strongly stuck to make it on foot and complete it at a stretch.


******************************************************

When I forgot to take medicines, and when I had presentiment of death, when I felt anxious about my life, and when I thought about something, which I would like to accomplish while I alive, I went on pilgrimage of Shikoku, which I had admired for a long time

Since I have some money now,
Still I have the strength now
I have a lot of spare time now

So I would like to go Shikoku pilgrimage. I couldnft have timed it better
