520			_aFrom cover: There is a unique school of Japanese asceticism called Shugendo, the Way of Acquiring Power, a blend of Shinto, Daoism and Buddhism. Practicioners perform arduous rituals in mountainside wildernesses and are deeply commited to protecting the natural environment. Shugendo practicioners take guidance and inspiration from the semi-legendary 7th century mystic En no Ozunu (or En no Gyoja), who is venerated as bodhisattva. Shugendo is not one isolated tradition but various expressions of spiritual practice that share common practices and aims. Shugendo Now is a poetic and intimate journey into a rarely seen world between the developed and the wild, between the present and the infinite. Filmed on location in the Japanese mountains of Kumano, Yoshino, Tokyo and Osaka.
