Between Two Worlds: A Japanese Pilgrimage [Part 3 of 4]

[Yogiphildas]

Thanks for posting this!

Though I am a "Gaijin", I love and respect Japanese culture. I am a Hindu and I can see many similarities between the 2 sister cultures. I wish that I can one day also do this pilgrimage.

Those peoples and ENTIRE JAPAN, should thank to our Great Master Kukai for such a Wonderfull pilgrimage and for His Wisdom!

Even now, in present the Divine Light of our Mester shines on them!

.......

But, do they care about what Kobo Daishi said??

NO, ofcorse NOT!

They care only about their daily ''samsaric practices''!

Shame, shame!

NAMO DAISHI HENJO KONGO!!!

Yes, Your point is correct. But Kukai's Buddhism was accepted with the influence of acient Shintoism, and himself intended it under the national policy purpose . That made japanese culture and religion so generous.

But all pilgrims are sure to have the Sincere spirits and serious minds to life and world. Now the road in Shikoku accepts that posture.
