The 2012 Religion and Culture Seminar will take participants to three Japanese locations: Tokyo, one of the world’s largest cities and a center of religious and culture life both modern and traditional; Nikko, a cultural heritage site near Tokyo: and Kyoto, a city famous for its ancient temples. In Tokyo we stay at Zojoji, a temple located just under Tokyo Tower. We travel to the HQ of new religions, to Shinto shrines, museums and received behind the scenes tours of Buddhist temples. In Nikko we stay at Manganji, where we do waterfall purification and help with the fire ceremony. We later take the bullet train to Kyoto where we explore the walkways and temples of this wonderful city. As a past student said, “I have learned more and been exposed to more Buddhism than is possible in a lifetime of reading and studying in the United States.” Join us for an amazing learning experience.
