Here is a wonderful virtual journey from Emergence — a meditative, visually stunning presentation of the Shikoku Pilgrimage. There are 88 official temples on the Japanese island of Shikoku, traditionally associated with Kōbō Daishi, the founder of the Shingon school of Buddhism. Here you have the opportunity to “visit” 9 of them. Take it slow and leisurely, and allow the accompanying texts and images to do their work in you.
