Used a few times at my family temple and then stored. Purchased from Koyasan Shingon Buddhism. The Aji-kan principal image has some scratches and creases. Please check the images. A book about Aji-kan and a guide explaining how to practice Aji-kan are also included. The Aji-kan instruction manual contains mantras and notes from when I studied and practiced. Gachirin-kan and Aji-kan are forms of meditation in Shingon Esoteric Buddhism. The hanging scroll rod is approximately 86 cm long. It's a good height for meditation when seated.
