Outline

Under the supervision of the 19th abbot of Gokuraku-ji Temple, it was developed as a new form of Buddhist equipment to encourage dialogue between the followers and the abbot. Visualizing the Pure Land of Bliss worldview in Buddhist sermons by matching sumie paintings with AR using a tablet device aids disciples’ imaginations and helps them more vividly experience the head priest’s sermons.
