| | Sanno Shinto Shrine's second torii arch was established at the top of the steps to inform pilgrims that they are approaching the holy precincts of the shrine. | | | But when the wind finally abated and the dust settled, the stunned deities of the shrine found that one of the legs of the torii arch at the top of the steps had remained miraculously upright. | | | Robbed of a leg by the world's first experiment with nuclear war, it points silently to the uneasiness of humankind and to the precarious state of a fragile planet forced to live with the threat of nuclear destruction. |

| | I visited Miyajima near Hiroshima shortly before leaving Japan in 1998, and when I went there, I was surprised to see that the Torii, the ritual gateway leading to the Shinto shrine of Utsukushima, stands on a very shallow beach, and as it was low tide, it was completely exposed. | | | The following text in apostrophes was taken from Paul Binnie's announcement. | | | Having seen this famous gateway in unnumerable prints standing in deep waters of the Inland Sea, it came as a shock to realize that the waters were not particularly deep at all! |
