Kookai

Kookai

Kookai is a Famous French clothing company. Kookai must have nothing to do with Japanese monk Kuukai-.. But if the concept of Kookai in fashion was based on the idea and thought of Kuukai, it is very fascinating. Still many ordinary people go on a trip in 88 temples in an island. It takes at least three months but it might be a wonderful experience when it completed. Kuukai ( 774-835 ) arranged 88 temples after he came back from China. His Buddhist preaching is esoteric, but he not only tsught his Buddhism but did lots of public enterprises like making a pond for drought. 88 Temples pilgrimage is not only held by elderlies but by youngsters too for those intend to seek the meaning of their life by this journey. We have to walk thoughout this journey. I intend to do sometime later in my life. Here's an interpretation of Kuukai in Japanese. Kuu in Japanese means 'the sky' , and Kai means 'the sea', the place where two crossed is horizon. I intend to go through in spite of all the obstacles in my life looking only toward horizon, where Kuukai is standing.
