Naohara Gyokusei is a master of Nanga painting who has ties to Awaji Island. He was also a painter and haiku poet, and a Rinzai Obaku sect monk, and became the chief priest to rebuild the dilapidated Zen temple Kokusei-an (later Kokusei Zenji) on Awaji Island where he grew up. At Kokusei Zenji Temple, which was magnificently rebuilt by Gyokusei, you will first complete a beginner-friendly zazen experience (about 60 minutes), after which you will listen to the current head priest explain the Zen teachings contained in Gyokusei's works while drinking tea, and then view Gyokusei's intimate works, which are privately painted by Gyokusei and housed in a storehouse within the temple grounds. You will be able to view rare sliding door paintings and other works up close without any partitions. After that, you will move to the Takikawa Memorial Museum of Art Gyokuseikan (about a 5-minute walk, 200m), where many of Gyokusei's paintings are on display, and finally view the masterpieces housed in the museum's collection. You will be able to experience a special time to reexamine yourself through the spirit of "Kuga Zen Ichinyo," which expresses the trinity of Nanga, haiku, and Zen that Naohara Gyokusei loved.

We will take a 10km trip around Numashima, also known as "Onokoro Island" which is related to the creation myth described in the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki, on an active fishing boat. The tour will take you to see the megaliths and strange rocks such as "Kamitachigami Rock" and "Shimotachigami Rock" from the sea with the guidance of a veteran guide. You will learn about the legends, history, and crustal activity of "Onokoro Island" while looking at the rocks that are said to be related to the creation myth, and you will also learn about the history and fishing of Numashima. Numashima is where the creation myth of Japan lives on. There are many strange rocks such as Ame-no-Mihashira and Kamita-Kami Rock, and distinctive reefs that can only be seen from the sea. In addition to the Onokoro Shrine, there are many other places related to the myth on the island, so there are many spots you can enjoy even after disembarking the cruise. Fishermen with the skill to navigate through difficult areas plan tours of the surrounding area along with its myths to promote the charms of the region, and a person who moved here and loves Numashima acts as the coordinator and guide. They guide an amazing 300 groups (1,000 people) a year! You can enjoy private tours limited to one group per hour. Balancing their main business of fishing with tourism gives them an awareness of how to create new communities and increase the number of people connected to them in this remote island where the population continues to decline and vitality is being lost. Are the fishermen a little tough-looking? No, they are very kind. Please feel free to talk to them. ■Experience schedule① From 9:10 (Please board the Numashima Kisen ferry departing from Habu Port at 9:00. Your guide will be waiting for you at Numashima Port.)
