4−５pm Practice meditationat Manpukuji-Temple
6-10 pm Enjoy the Kyoto night view
An old Zen Buddhist temple called Wanfu Temple lies on Mount Huangbo in Fuzhou, Fujian Province, China. Its abbot Yinyuan Longqi, who is known as Ingen Zenji (Zen-master Ingen) in Japanese, visited Japan and founded Obaku-san Manpuku-ji (which shares the same Chinese character as Huangbo-shan, Wanfu-si) in Uji, Kyoto in 1661.
Manpuku-ji was built with Sumatran teak and is an absolutely rare Japanese temple since it remains very well as it was at the time of its construction, and most of the buildings are designated as Important Cultural Properties.
Mason is getting "keisaku" flat, wooden "encouragement stick" used during seated meditation (zazen). It is not a punishment. Instead, it serves as a mindful tool to awaken the mind, alleviate physical stiffness, and correct posture
In Buddhism, "Buddha's flower" almost exclusively refers to the Lotus (Nelumbo nucifera). It represents purity, enlightenment, and resilience, as the flower blossoms untainted despite having its roots in murky, muddy water
