Description: Description Koyasan: The Sanctuary Sought by Samurai Warlords - Best of Time Traveler Series (Sanei Mook) Description This special edition commemorates the 1,250th anniversary of the birth of Kobo Daishi (Kukai), founder of Shingon Buddhism. Known across Japan for his enduring legacy, Kukai’s teachings and legends have been passed down for centuries. Throughout the long span of time, eras changed dramatically, and many things were born only to disappear. Despite the passage of 1,250 years, Koyasan, the sacred site of Kukai’s spiritual practice, remains intact. Even during the turbulent Sengoku period, many samurai warlords revered and visited this holy mountain. Why has Koyasan been considered a secluded sacred site deep within the mountains, and how did it come to play such an important role in honoring the spirits of many samurai?
