The present paper deals with the folk custom of takemairi 4 19 at Mt. Asama _ ~ LL in Mie Prefecture, Japan. It is part of a wider research project on folk religion, and particularly on Bon observances (Festival of the Dead) in the Ise-Shima region' which has been conducted for five years since 1983. The folk custom of takemairi has as its purpose not only the climbing of and worshiping at Mt. Asama but also the performance of memorial services (kuy5 AI ) for the deceased at the Donkai-in TFa Q , which is the oku-no-in ("inner sanctuary") of the Kongosh-ji , ~'I1 E 1 affiliated with the Nanzenji Sect of the Rinzai Zen tradition, by putting up square tiba ("wooden stupa slats") at both sides of the approach from the Gokuraku temple gate to the inner sanctuary. This popular custom, called thba kuye j i, constitutes in itself an important element of the takemairi.
