Shugendō (修験道) is a 1300+ year-old syncretic religious path of training and testing, characterised by meditation, pilgrimage and periodic retreats centered on ritual death & rebirth.
The Mt. Koshikidake (甑嶽山) sect's home temple, Kannon-ji (観音寺), is located in Yamagata prefecture, Japan. This is the branch-site of a practitioner located in Meanjin (Brisbane, Australia).

Website built on Aboriginal Land. We acknowledge the unceded sovereignty of Dippil, Jaggera, Goori, Kabi Kabi, Turrbal and surrounding peoples/countries. We acknowledge the ongoing grief, sorrow and resistance - the inheritance of genocide, ecocide and land trauma. Humbly, with gratitude and in pursuit of a decolonising solidarity, we pay respects to the peoples, languages, laws and ceremonies that have walked these lands since ancient times.
