@tt_2241: Tracing the first steps of the Shikoku path beginning at Ryōzen-ji, flowing through Gokuraku-ji and Konsen-ji before arriving at Temple 6, where the day gently comes to rest. With every gate crossed, every bell rung, every step taken… something shifts. The noise softens. The rhythm steadies. The journey begins to walk you. And at Anraku-ji, the path pauses just long enough to breathe onsen steam rising, sutras echoing, intentions quietly released into the night. This isn’t just a route. It’s a return. #shikoku88 #henro #shikokupilgrimage #japan #kobodaishi
