Fudō-in
in Kamakura
The temple I call Fudō-in, where Noboru Tokuda is a priest, is based on a famous temple of the Pure Land sect called Hasedera in Kamakura. This temple has a large cemetery catering to mizuko—dead children and aborted fetuses. It also houses the tall gilt wooden eleven-faced Guan Yin statue that Philip was so keen to visit.
