Releasing my breath like rain into the eternal ocean. 

Destroying my selfish ego. 

Wafting incense through corridors of magnificent cedars. 200,000 or more of Kukai’s fervent disciples wishing to be buried as close as possible to the eternally meditating Kukai’s, believed to be still alive and praying for his believers worldwide.

I walk the path Kobo Daishi took when he established Koyasan as the center of Esoteric Shingon Buddhism in 816.

Come, walk with me…
