40 days
in the ambrosian rite, lent begins on the sunday that follows what is celebrated as ash wednesday in the rest of the latin catholic church, and ends as in the roman rite, thus being of 40 days, counting the sundays but not holy thursday. the day for beginning the lenten fast is the following monday, the first weekday in lent. the special ash wednesday fast is transferred to the first friday of the ambrosian lent. until this rite was revised by saint charles borromeo the liturgy of the first sunday of lent was festive, celebrated in white vestments with chanting of the gloria in excelsis and alleluia, in line with the recommendation in , "when you fast, do not look gloomy".
lent
the core teaching regarding humankind's relationship to god is "a thing lent, a thing borrowed" (かしもの かりもの "kashimono karimono"), which is the belief that the human body is "a thing lent" by god and "a thing borrowed" by the human individual. only the mind is owned by the individual; therefore, tenrikyo's understanding of human nature is essentially mental. the concept is closely connected with other teachings related to anthropology such as dusts of the mind, rebirth, and causality.
