高野山座落於海拔900公尺,是816年由空海(弘法大師)開創、作為真言宗總本山的門前町,共有117座寺院建築。清晨薄霧會在街道間籠罩至早上8點;每座寺院都飄著裊裊香煙;身披袈裟的僧侶至今仍在清晨6點誦經,一如1200年來從未間斷。你可以在寺院裡過夜(宿坊),睡在榻榻米上、吃精進料理(僧侶素食),若清晨醒得早還能參加早課。這座門前町有兩個核心:壇上伽藍——擁有朱紅寶塔的神聖寺院群,以及奧之院墓地——一條2公里長的參道,穿越500年古杉林,兩側是20萬座墓塚。相傳空海的肉身就長眠在此,永恆入定,並非死去,而是仍在等待。僧侶每天為他送飯兩次。入夜後,1萬座燈籠點亮參道,整片森林都瀰漫著檀香的氣味。高野山不是博物館——這些都是仍在運作的寺院,僧侶在此修行、學習,維繫著幾世紀未曾改變的儀式。你住的是修行道場,不是飯店,這一點從那份寂靜與紀律中就能感受到。
