Uncanny Japan Fudō Myō: The Unshakable Buddhist Deity and Sacred Fire Ceremonies (Ep. 164)
In this episode, I'll be telling you about someone I've had a crush on for the past couple years, Fudō Myō, and also about a very cool fire ceremony that will burn away all your worldly desires, ignorance, and purify you.
Meet Fudō Myō, the fierce Buddhist deity who burns away ignorance and worldly desires through Goma fire ceremonies.
Learn about the name meaning "the immovable or unshakable one," his role as a wisdom king in esoteric Buddhism, and how he converts rage into salvation. I'll also share my personal experiences attending Goma fire ceremonies, where I've witnessed the visually striking and powerful ritual.
