Explore Kyoto's Spiritual Side with Nathan- a Buddhism Insider guide

Kyoto is one of Japan's top travel destinations but without a good guide, most visitors miss out on the deeper meaning and stories of some of its key sights- especially at its temples. See the video of this talk: https://youtube.com/live/kRI5MfGURS4

In this talk, Rev. Dr. Nathan Jishin Michon 慈心 who is a deep-Kyoto guide and insider expert on the deeper meaning of visits to temples and understandings of Buddhism, shares some stories and explanations for a more spiritual & interesting tours of temples and shrines in Kyoto.

Many of Nathan's insights and suggested practices can illuminate a visit to many temples, shrines and spiritual areas across Japan.
