Article Source: Reutersadvertisement
A Western journalist living in Japan reports on a six-hour "One-Day Nun Experience Workshop" (as Reuters calls it). Interesting for the way it reflects notions about sincerity, practice, and identity. Writer seems bemused at the fact that Japanese participants treat religion as a sort of "game."
