One of Japan's most popular tourist desitnations, the Torii of Itsukushima Shrine is at once graceful and sturdy. Facing the water, the gate welcomes the spirits of the departed as they come in across Japan's Inland Sea. At low tide, visitors can reach the gates on foot. At high tide, however, the bright red gate appears to float in the water.

Nothing has the ability to transport us to another time and place quilte llike the brilliant resonance of a gong.

The teaching is this - upon hearing the gong, worries will cease, widsom will grow.
