“The appearance of a Pagoda touches the hearts and minds
of all people. Those who venerate this pagoda absolutely
reject nuclear warfare and firmly believe that a peaceful world will be
manifested. The vision of the Peace Pagoda has the power to bring about
a spiritual transformation. It illuminates the dawn of a spiritual civilization.

As part of the ceremony, Omiki(Sacred sake), Okome(sacred rice) and salt are also returned to the ground.
