It is believed that Kobo Daishi Kukai still lives in the Koyasan, and continues to meditate in the hope of world peace and the well-being of the people. And many worshipers come from not only in Japan but also abroad to the mausoleum of Koyasan Okunoin. The event that meals are delivered twice a day to a master who still continues to meditate is called “Shoujingu”. During also the rainy season, two priests who are led by the Yuina monk are carrying the morning meal to the Master. For 1200 years, it’s always a morning event, which may not be visible, but Kobo Daishi Kukai is certainly there.

高野山奥之院の御廟には、弘法大師空海が今もなおそこに生き、世界平和と人々の幸福を願い瞑想を続けていると信じられ、国内のみならず海外からも多くの参拝客が訪れています。「生身供(しょうじんぐ)と言って、毎日二回、今なお瞑想を続ける大師に食事を届けます。折からの梅雨の中、今朝も二人の僧が案内人の維那（ゆいな／僧侶の職名)に従って御廟に向かっています。1200年の間、いつも変わらね朝の行事です。姿としては見えないかもしれませんが、弘法大師空海は確かにそこにいらっしゃいます。
