In the alcove, two pictures. The one on the right.
The hand of the Niō at the entrance gate to Temple 37.
Made of wood, painted, and standing here for centuries. Brought almost to life by the movement of the camera, almost flesh-and-blood.
The message is clear: pause for a moment.
Not as a ban, but as a test.
Those who come with good intentions move on.
The Niō stands watch, silent yet powerful, without uttering a word.
Can you feel how the energy from this hand is setting the grass nearby in motion?
