Your post is so peaceful and lovely. It is hard to think that in nature is beauty but also suffering. I enjoyed reading about the Todai-Ji Temple in Nara. A couple of weeks ago I wrote a long post on the Byodo-In Temple in Kahalu’u Hawaii. It is also very beautiful. I am sending my loving-kindness energy to the people of Japan in these difficult times.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3501712311386792025.post-43019428546715455042011-03-13T10:57:14.741+09:002011-03-13T10:57:14.741+09:00Thank you for your deep concern about my country a...Thank you for your deep concern about my country and its people..<br /><br />Fortunately I live in Nara far away from the epicenter.

I'm glad you posted and are doing well.<br />The second photo/reflection is my favorite. I am guessing the Shibi's weren't present on the first 2 Great Buddha Halls? Glad to know this site is protected.
