Kuji Kiri?
"In some groups, the leader counts to nine and then cuts the air while shouting the word "yei!" to dispel this impurity." Could this be related to the Kuji Kiri (nine syllable cuts) ritual used in Japanese religions?. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.12.230.127 (talk) 16:33, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Translation?
Can someone translate ''"harae-tamae-Kiyome-tamae-ro-kon-sho-jo!" '' into English? RJFJR 00:49, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

January 27th Edit
I put some revisions into this text. There are several groups that still practice Misogi in Japan, all of them have slighty different traditions. The content of this article is good, but it seems to represent Misogi as it is found in Omotokyo Shinto more than a general guide (which is not a bad thing in itself). I am of the impression this should represent a overall feel of misogi and the practice here in Japan, so I added some additional kanji, explanation and information. Right now, I have to A) locate and B) translate additional informaton to add, it is just a matter of digging out the quotes and verifying it for the article's references. Small things such as incatations (such as Harahei Kotaba-which are really prayers) appear in different forms from group to group; there are different traditions that are practiced before entering the water (waterfalls, rivers or lakes) and there are several practices that are not mentioned. I will try to add them later! Thanks! Mekugi (talk) 08:27, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Something article forgot to mention
That is the fact that that water is FUCKING COLD.

can't find a word for 降り魂 in dictionaries, and I think it's usually written 振魂 or 魂振
降り魂 with my very basic Japanese knowledge means "spirit alighting"　(when googling this I cannot find any results. while "spirit shaking" would be 振魂, and for that too I cannot find a word in any dictionary for it, and upon googling the results are very limited, with the closest result being on Dota 2 (振魂石) does this practice even exist?
