梵字 - BONJI -

By Kenta KENTA · Tokyo

梵字 - BONJI - Bonji (Sanskrit characters in Buddhism) are sacred letters based on ancient Indian Sanskrit. They are mainly used in Buddhism to represent Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. In Japan, they can be seen in temples, amulets, Buddhist statues, and gravestones, and the characters themselves are believed to carry meaning and spiritual blessings.
