-Description-
The photographs of Buddhist statues collected in “Hidden Buddhist treasures of Shikoku: Sacred sites connected to Kukai” are extremely rare and precious images. Megumu Sakurai, a photographer specializing in esoteric Buddhism, spent four years photographing the statues of Buddhas and Buddhist deities found on the route of the Shikoku 88-Temple Pilgrimage, images rarely on view to the public. Full commentary and information on the temples concerned are also provided. We hope you will enjoy viewing this unique app as a companion to visiting these temples in the real world.

-Profile-
Megumu Sakurai
Photographer specializing in esoteric Buddhism
Born in 1941 in Uonuma City, Niigata Prefecture
Following a mysterious near-death experience from severe illness in 1996, Sakurai was attracted by Kukai’s concept of “attaining Buddhahood during one’s life” and underwent the tokudo (initial ordination) ritual. He subsequently started photographing the various Buddha images and rituals of Mt. Koya, and since 2000 he has been photographing the “hidden Buddhas” of the Shikoku 88-Temple Pilgrimage. Since 2007, he has held exhibitions and given lectures throughout Japan.
