Japan Capstone Day#6 Nara Todaiji




The place of Great Buddha

You can see how big this building is.


Zoom in

We donated this roof materials to the temple writing some messages.
We have practiced Calligraphy so far in the States. That really helped for this.
They wrote "International School xxxx(name)"

"Also of interest in the Daibutsuden are the rear support pillars, which have holes through the bottom. Popular belief has it that if one is successful in squeezing through one of these "healing pillars," he or she is guaranteed a place in Heaven."

We went through this hole which is the same size of Buddha nostril.


Wow, you are in heaven now.

You too, Tonya. But you needed children's support.


Way too far to reach to heaven.
I need to figure out other options.
