The power in prayers is strong, cleansing, healing, and full of the hopes and dreams of those who pray.

More tears are shed over answered prayers than unanswered ones.

Prego un fragile cielo

Prego amorevole ombra

Prego riparo dal fuoco

Prego in assenza di peso

 

Celebro foglia sanguigna

Celebro arioso teatro

Pietà per i miei polsi aperti

Pietà per il mio amore non detto

 

Sia grazia al vento greve

Sia grazia alle gravide stelle

Sia motivo di sogni la quiete

Per cui sposo la fredda corrente

 

E non chiedo ghirlande di fiori

O parole di crosta di pane, ma il fragore

Scrosciante, crescente, delle acque

Che imploro di non farmi tornare.

"O Delara, lady of law and justice!

Let your law stand against the grandest crime

against the gods, hubris itself, in defacing your name

with their mortal, miasmatic horrors!"

Ema (絵馬) are small wooden votive plaques where visitors write their wishes and prayers before hanging them at temples and shrines across Japan. Although the name literally means “picture of a horse,” recalling the equine offerings of ancient times, today they feature diverse designs closely tied to the places where they are displayed.

 

At Gotokuji Temple in Setagaya, Tokyo, the Ema take on a special character. This sanctuary is famous as the supposed birthplace of the maneki-neko, the iconic lucky cat figurine. According to tradition, in the 17th century, a cat beckoned a passing feudal lord into the temple just moments before a sudden thunderstorm, saving his life. In gratitude, the temple prospered, and ever since, thousands of lucky cat figures have gathered here as offerings.

 

Thus, the Ema at Gotokuji blend the ancient custom of inscribing wishes with the unique legacy of the maneki-neko, creating a space where history, faith, and symbols of good fortune quietly coexist beneath the temple’s architecture.

It is difficult to take a photograph in Greece without including a church or two. The Mykonos coast is no exception.

“The prayer of the farmer kneeling in his field to weed it, the prayer of the rower kneeling with the stroke of his oar, are true prayers heard throughout nature.”
