Sleep with Mythology

The Legend of the Biwa Hoshi (Japanese folklore)


Listen Later

In the lush, mist-filled realms of feudal Japan, the echoes of Shunkei, a blind Biwa Hoshi monk, resonate through the air, carrying tales of valor, tragedy, and ethereal mysteries. As his fingers trace the strings of his biwa lute, the soft strums mingle with the fragrance of cherry blossoms and the whisper of incense, painting vibrant stories that bridge the mortal and the mystical. Each note invites us into a world where legends of samurai heroes and haunted forests feel palpably near, draped under the serene moonlight. Let the gentle music guide you into a night woven with the ancient threads of myth and tranquility.This episode is hosted by Brian Miller.
