Shigons (followers of Shingon Buddhism) believe in the teachings of the Mahavairocana Sutra and the practice of esoteric rituals and meditation techniques to attain enlightenment. They also believe in the power of mantras, mudras, and mandalas to help achieve spiritual awakening. Shingon Buddhism focuses on the interconnectedness of all things and the potential for all beings to attain Buddhahood.
