End of the fasting period - Shojin Otoshi

Japanese: 精進落し - しょうじんおとし
End of the fasting period - Shojin Otoshi
Originally, it meant refraining from eating meat and fish until the 35th or 49th day after the end of mourning to avoid killing animals, and then returning to normal eating habits after the end of mourning. Recently, it has moved away from its original meaning and is generally held at the time of bone collection after the funeral as a way of expressing gratitude to those who helped with the funeral of the deceased. = Imibarai (purification of mourning)

Japanese:
本来は、忌明けの35日または49日までは殺生をしないように肉や魚などを食することを慎み、忌明けが過ぎて日常の食生活に戻ることを指しました。最近では、本来の意味を離れ、故人の葬儀でお世話になった方々へのお礼の席として、葬儀後の骨上げの時に行うのが一般的です。＝忌払い（いみばらい）
