Then, an image of a lit candle 45 is displayed on the candlestick 46, and an image of a lit incense stick 47 is displayed on the incense burner 48. Is displayed such that the lengths of the images of the lit candle 45 and the incense stick 47 gradually become shorter.

When the candle 45 or the incense stick 47 burns out, the image of the candle 45 or the incense stick 47 restored to the original length is displayed according to the operation of the member or automatically. In addition, the flower 43 can be selected from a plurality of kinds of flowers and displayed, and can also represent a temporal change such as gradually withering and withering over time.

The display image of the Buddhist altar 40 displayed on the display 22 includes an image of a bell 49. Then, the member uses the mouse to display 2
By operating the bell (ring) 50 on the 2 and hitting the bell (ring) 49, the sound of the bell (ring) 49 is sounded by the speaker 2.
From 3 Regardless of the operation of the member, for example, at a certain time interval or at a predetermined timing, the bell 49 is automatically generated.
Can be generated from the speaker 23.

Further, when a member registers an image of the Buddhist altar 40, a desired chanting sound is selected from a plurality of sect-based sample reading sounds and registered in the Buddhist altar information database (DB) 16. During the image display of the Buddhist altar 40, the registered chanting sound is generated from the speaker 23.

As described above, the virtual Buddhist altar can be used not only to celebrate its ancestors as in the real Buddhist altar, but also to generate chanting sounds which are not provided in the real altar. The functions required to celebrate ancestors can be said to be more than actual Buddhist altars.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be described.
This will be described with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS.

As shown in FIG. 3, first, the user operates the client 20 to access the server 11 of the management site 10 and firstly registers as a member (step S1).
The member registration data is stored in the member database (DB) 14 (step S2). The member registration data includes the member's name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, sect, and other data, and also includes a member ID / password.

At this time, a member ID usable only by the member
In addition to the password / password, for example, an ID / password for a friend can be registered. Members who are allowed to browse the Buddhist altars, such as relatives and close friends of the deceased, are alleged I
By teaching the D / password, it is possible for the person to only view the Buddhist altar registered by the member.

After necessary registration operations such as member registration, deceased person registration, and Buddhist altar registration are completed, the registered Buddhist altar can be used whenever the member desires. That is, as shown in FIG. 4, when the member operates the client 20 to access the server 11 of the management site 10, and inputs the member ID / password and, if necessary, the deceased ID / password (step S1).
1) The server 11 is a member database (DB) 14,
It searches the Buddhist altar information database (DB) 16 and, if necessary, the deceased database (DB) 15, and distributes the Buddhist altar information registered in the client 20 of the member (step S12). Thereby, the display 22 displays the distributed image of the Buddhist altar 40, and the speaker 23 generates the distributed chanting sound and the like.

The member sits in front of the client 20 and looks at the image of the Buddhist altar 40 displayed on the display 22.
By listening to the chanting sounds and the like generated from the speaker 23, the task of the day can be accomplished.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5, a relative such as a relative or a close friend of the deceased operates his / her personal computer (client) to access the server 11 of the management site 10, and is instructed by the member.
