Torii: 鳥居 (Torii)



(Torii) Torii is the one of the “Gates”. And this is indicated of the entrance (barrier), and then is divided into the human lives (secure world) and Shiniki (the area of God) in such a shrine inside.

If you entered to Torii, you might feel some spiritual images from there. This is kinds like,
Yuri Gagarin: “The Earth is blue. How wonderful. It is amazing.”.

You can feel anything that you never experienced or just feel like that one of the “Gates”, it completely depends on you.
