An evening practice joins a temple’s autumn program
Daigo-ji’s November 21 to 23 event combines meditation yoga, a vegetarian meal and a night visit.
At Kyoto’s Daigo-ji, a three-evening program will bring meditation yoga into the temple’s treasure museum before a meal and a night visit to the grounds.
A practice within a cultural setting
The organizer lists A Night Watched Over by the Buddha for November 21 to 23, 2026. EeNa’s November 3 preview describes the event, which is limited to fifty guests each evening and requires advance reservation.
The official program names Nagisa Yabe as the yoga and meditation instructor. Practice is scheduled in the Reihokan’s Heiseikan, followed by a seasonal Buddhist vegetarian meal prepared by Koyasan’s Ekoin and a visit among the illuminated temple grounds.
The sequence gives the evening a cultural frame rather than presenting yoga as a separate attraction. The temple’s museum, food and autumn setting are parts of the announced experience. Any account of how participants respond must wait until the event has happened.
This is a paid program with limited places, not a description of ordinary temple admission. The organizer’s page is the source for current availability and participation details. Its promotional language should not be treated as evidence of health effects.
