A fire extinguishing festival that colors the late autumn night sky red. The eternal sacred flame received from Doryo Son is lit on the old talismans at the fire extinguishing dojo, creating an altar for the sacred flame. Fire attendants receive the sacred fire from this altar to offer thanks for the protection granted throughout the year, calm the flames of worldly desires, reflect on their actions over the past year, and purify their body and mind to welcome the new year. By taking home the purified torches, the fire attendants pray for peace of mind through purified fire extinguishing, the removal of various disasters in the coming year, prevention of fire-related accidents, and good health.
