The other day was the first time that I visited Myohon-ji in the daytime. The flower of the cherry tree and crabapple tree were in full bloom. And it was a pretty beautiful day. The temple's head priest was writing out Chinese characters on a big stupa (wooden board) at the side of the main hall. I took a video of him doing this, and politely asked for some words from him. He gently replied that he is trying to make this temple a place where people feel nice and comfortable, and get energy for their lives.
