Dragon Research

Greetings from Kyoto

Recently I have suddenly and without good explanation been captivated by Japanese and Chinese dragons. I have been visiting the major Zen temples in Kyoto, which invariably have a dragon painting on the ceiling of the Dharma Hall, where the priests teach the Buddhist teachings to the young monks. I haven’t met a dragon painting that knocked my socks off yet, but the one at Shokuji Temple is the best I have seen so far.
