History: To Be a Pilgrim
Mairis: Places of
Prayer
|
| As I traveled, I
prayed for my friends (and some strangers). You can read about my prayer
routine(s), and how I undertook "A
Mission to the Gods."
This page simply records where I said
my prayers in the Old Tokaido and Yamato
sections. Thereafter (in the Shikoku
section), I prayed at each of the 88 temples of the pilgrimage--which
often meant that I prayed several times a day!
