FOR TRAVEL PROFESSIONALS
For international tour operators, travel advisors and concierges creating bespoke Japan itineraries. We shape meditation and art experiences in Koyasan and Kumano around your clients’ journey.
OPEN THE SENSES / WITHIN THE ITINERARY
For clients drawn to a new way of sensing, we recommend beginning in Koyasan and continuing into Kumano’s nature. Film and sound offer a doorway into the experience. From the planning stage, discuss how the two-place journey, or part of it, could fit your clients’ interests and existing itinerary.
Created by Feel& Sense, LIFE® Inochi and the Inochi Exhibition give artistic form to Kūkai’s ideas. Specially presented during Kūkai’s 1,250th birth anniversary in the normally private Okuden of Kongōbu-ji, the head temple of Koyasan Shingon Buddhism in World Heritage–listed Koyasan, today’s core experience combines LIFE® Inochi, Oneness meditation and sound healing with distinctive instruments in a temple hall normally closed to the public. Exhibition artworks and cultural experiences can be arranged around your clients and budget.
For clients who value a personal pace and meaningful encounters, we combine original art, meditation and sound in a temple hall normally closed to the public, or guided encounters with the Kumano Kodo. Share your dates, group size, interests, budget and language needs. Together we confirm venues, programme content, costs and the responsibilities of each partner.
