*''Japanese'': 後七日御修法 ''(go shichi nichi no mishuhou)''
The ''Goshichinichi no mishuhô'', or Second Week Imperial Ritual,” was a [[Shingon]] Buddhist imperial ritual aimed at empowering the emperor and by extension the state.
It was performed regularly from [[835]] until the 1300s, was revived under the [[Tokugawa shogunate]] in [[1625]], abolished by the [[Meiji government]] in the 1870s, was then revived in [[1883]] and was performed regularly until 1945, before being abolished again, and then revived yet again in 1968, being performed regularly from 1968 until today.
