During the Shunie period extending over a fortnight, Hokkesenbo is recited after Hanya on each of the four consecutive days, from the 1st day down to the 4th, in the former part of the whole function, and in the latter part there of the same thing is also recited after Hanya on the four days, from the 8th day down to the 11th; Hokke-senbo is thus recited 8 times all told. To each of these occasions are allotted 3 members nominated out of the following 5, namely, Kitashu-no-ichi, Minamishu-no-ichi, Kitashu-no-ni, Minamishu-no-ni, and Chudo. And, one of these three priests acting as leader, this group goes to confession by virtue of Hokekyo (the Sutra of the Lotus). Daisbugan is recited at Shoya in exactly the same words as at Goya but in a different melody. The melody of Daishuganintroduced here is that of Daishugan recited at Shoya. Both Hokkesenbo and Daishugan are Shomyo (pl.) rather monotonous and plain but are noteworthy in that they have their own forms of expression.
