Kyoto is famed for its shrines and temples, which are full of countless unique stories that will astonish you, making you fall in love with and connect yourself to their ancient history. In this virtual interactive experience we visit Kyoto's shrines and temples through high-quality videos I've recorded. You'll hear and see what Japanese believe in and practice, its principal and traditional customs. I will be narrating based on my Japanese childhood. I was born and raised in a 200 year-old rice farmer and my grandma always said "Ken, 8 million gods live in Japan, even in a single grain of rice so be grateful to everything and everybody". As my grandma said there is a rich diversity of deities in Japan, especially in Kyoto. We'll visit a couple of shrines and temples and discover the background of the elder deities there and learn Japanese way of thinking that would be helpful to our everyday lives too.

We begin our magical adventure strolling under the cherry blossoms, a quick visit to a Zen monastery and then a walk through the famed Saga Bamboo Forest. Then I will share insider access to a mountain temple that is far off the radar of most visitors to Kyoto. Through my close relationship with the head monk I will share with you the fascinating story of this temple that has never been told in such depth in English before. To Preview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6FerLOBBPk Founded over 1,000 years ago and abandoned during WWII, what has become of this temple since the war is absolutely amazing. I will share high-quality HD videos that I have produced which include vintage clips from 40 years ago when this temple was being restored. As we end this experience I will pass on a wonderful offer from the head monk for when you visit Kyoto in the future. While traveling through space and time, this is your chance to experience true peace and tranquility.

Most tourists visit Fushimi Inari Shrine for the thousand torii gates, but rarely do they delve deeper into the shrine's history and tradition. Learn about Shinto rituals and how forest bathing is done at one of Kyoto’s oldest shrines (founded 1,300 years ago!) I have recorded high-quality video that will make it seem that you are really at one with the forest at Fushimi Inari. We will visit shrines for various gods to learn what Shinto gods are like, witness the rituals used to appeal to them, and see 2 ways that people have tried to speak to the gods here. I will be narrating live throughout and you can ask questions anytime. We will look at 5 ways people meditate here at Fushimi Inari, and you’ll learn to how do mindfulness meditation at a sacred waterfall in a secret part of the shrine that tourists normally miss out on. We will sit together for just a couple of minutes so if you’re new to meditation this is a perfect way to get started. Once you've been on this you'll be able to practice forest bathing wherever you are. ✔ Interactive experience with quizzes & activities ✔ Celebrate birthdays & anniversaries in a meaningful way - also perfect for couples ✔ Learn surprising things about Japan's gods and forests ✔ Highly-rated for team-building by teachers, therapists, and groups from Amazon, Airbnb, Facebook, Google, IBM, Mastercard, Oracle, Salesforce, Spotify & more...
