My Prayer Routine

[One of the guiding ideas behind my pilgrimage was that I was representing the needs and wishes of others. You can read more about this on my page, "A Mission to the Gods."]

As I travel, I am offering up daily prayers for my friends (and at every one of Shikoku's 88 temples). All of the prayers may be found below.
