Addicted to YouTube

2025-02-27 | shrine and temple

 

Lately, I've been hooked on watching Shizuka Sasaki's YouTube videos.

 Shizuka Sasaki is a Buddhist scholar and a priest of the Takada school of Shinshu Buddhism.

He was also a professor at Hanazono University, though he is now retired.

I started watching it, but once I started, I couldn't stop.

He explains the seemingly complicated and grand world of Buddhism in a very easy-to-understand way.

It will take me a long time to finish watching it .

 

This is how I came across this video.

 l learned about Yokota Nanrei, the head priest of the Engakuji school of the Rinzai sect of Buddhism and president of Hanazono University, on the Facebook page of Zen san, an acquaintance of mine through a blog.

I learned about Shizuka Sasaki through Nanrei's YouTube channel.
