Aside from this annual event for the Urabon festival, some other events such as memorial services for the goryo (or mitama: spirit of a deceased person) of ancestors or mizuko (aborted, stillborn or miscarried fetus; newborn baby) are also called Goshorei.
他には盂蘭盆の年中行事とは別に、先祖や水子の御霊（みたま）を招き供養することなども御招霊（ごしょうれい）と呼ばれることもある。
