Скачать или смотреть Lord Shiva temple in Japan

Toganji Temple (桃巌寺), in the Motoyama area of Nagoya in Aichi Prefecture, dates from the sixteenth century and includes an impressive 15m high statue of the seated Buddha painted in a vivid green color.

Toganji, a Soto Zen sect temple of Japanese Buddhism, has many links to India as one of the high priests of the temple completed his studies in Buddhism there.

Toganji Temple's grounds contain a Shiva-Lingam and a shrine dedicated to the Goddess Saraswati, who is honored in a Benzaiten Festival every May 7-8.

Toganji also contains a huge wood block said to purge past sins if touched with one hand. Toganji's lovely temple grounds, though small, also contain a Chinese-style gate, an ancient pine tree and a thick, bamboo grove.
