Shakyo & Shabutsu
Shakyo is a traditional Japanese practice of copying Buddhist sutras by hand. It is a meditative and devotional activity where individuals transcribe sacred texts as a means of deepening their spiritual connection to the texts that are copied. The process involves attentive brushwork and concentration, making it a form of mindfulness meditation.
Shabutsu refers to the creation or representation of various Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
