For the memorial day of Shakyamuni Buddha passing into Nirvana, the huge scroll has been put up in the Hondo (almost 3 m x 3 m in size) and will be left for the Sunday Zazenkai, but afterwards taken down right away. Made in 1699 every time the heavy, silken scroll gets put up, it does suffer from it, so the time of display is kept extremely short.
