You must stay overnight in a sealed room with salt and a buddha statue. You must ignore all noises and voices and let no one into the room.
After this you must get into an 11-12 seater van with a driver, a holy person who knows a specific chant and 8 close relatives. Once the van begins moving you must keep your head down, eyes closed and hold a special charm. While the van is moving Hachishaku-sama will pound on the van. Once the pounding stops you will be safe.
