This is the rosary I bought at Todai-ji. I knew I wanted to pick up a rosary while I was in Japan, but I couldn’t find the right one anywhere. When we got to Todai-ji, though, I knew I had to buy a rosary there. Like my mother says, “Some ground is just sacred.” My experience at Todai-ji was too powerful not to take one home from there.
