**The sound of the bell of the Gion Seisha contains the echo of "all things are impermanent," that is, everything in this world is constantly changing. The color of the flowers of the sara-souju tree illustrates the principle that even the most vigorous person will surely fade away. Even if someone is prosperous and good at what he does, his prosperity will not last long, just like a dream on a waking spring night. Even those who are prosperous will eventually perish, just like the dust before the wind.** - Image #2 <@1132962589073211513>
