Description

1972 October marks the completion of the multimillion-dollar Sho Hondo Grand Main Temple in Taisekiji, Japan.

Three thousand American Buddhists prepare to embark on a pilgrimage to meet their mentor and pray to the Dai-Gohonzon, the great mandala inscribed by the Buddha Nichiren in 1279 for the salvation of humankind.

What will they find?

Travel with them on their adventure, seen through the eyes of a 22-year-old clarinet player in the NSA brass band.
