Japanese

このように、富士山の鎮火の祈りが込められているのがこの浅間神社です。ちなみに、浅間というのは古い言葉で火山を意味します。（日本全国にも浅間という地名がありますが、いずれも現在、もしくは過去に火山活動があったことを意味しています。）
ここで、今から行く母の白滝ですが、この滝は今お話したことと深い関わりがあります。
富士山は先程の話のように昔から恐れ敬われている山なので、ご利益を求めて数多くの人達が参拝するために登っていました。これを登拝といいます。

English

In this way, Asama Shrine carries the prayer from people to suppress the eruption of Mt. Fuij.
By the way, Asama means the old word of volcano.(There are some places called Asama all around Japan, and they all means that there are or were volcanic activity.)
Then, about the mother's Shirataki(white water fall) we are heading to, it is closely related to what I told you now.
As I told you before, Mt. Fuji is the mountain which had been scared and respected for long time. Therefore, many people climb the mountain to worship for the benefit.
This act is called Mountain pilgrimage.
