A seasonal sacred dance is tied to a fixed point in the calendar, performed once a year to mark a season, harvest or festival, so its ritual meaning rests on timing rather than on trance, narrative or costume. Bon Odori, the Japanese Buddhist dance performed during the Obon festival to welcome ancestral spirits, is recorded here.
