About Enko Sakai

Born in 1963 in Aichi, Japan, Enko Sakai began his career as an office employee before following a spiritual calling inspired by his maternal grandfather, a Buddhist priest. At the age of 27, he entered the priesthood and joined Enryakuji Temple on Mount Hiei, the head temple of the Tendai sect, transitioning from the Pure Land tradition. After completing rigorous training, he later became head priest of Myojoin Temple at the age of 42.

Under his guidance, Myojoin Temple evolved into a welcoming spiritual sanctuary open to visitors from all walks of life. The temple gained national media recognition for its modern and accessible approach to Buddhist practice and is now frequently featured on television and in magazines. Visitors can take part in waterfall meditation, sutra chanting, and Zen meditation experiences.

At 40, Enko Sakai became a certified counselor after completing formal training in mental health and hypnosis management. He also developed expertise in Reiki, Qigong, yoga, meditation, and energy work. By integrating these disciplines with his spiritual background, he has helped guide individuals toward balance and clarity in today’s high-stress society. At 50, he began studying English to share his teachings with a global audience.

Enko Sakai also made his film debut in Love on Mars, appearing as himself and serving as executive producer.

A Cinematic Soundtrack for the Soul: “Mirrors” Hits Hollywood FM Digital A-List Playlist

We’re proud to announce that the breathtaking new single “Mirrors” by Amrit Ghatore has officially landed on our A-List Playlist. This powerful, cinematic, and emotionally rich track will be playing every couple of hours, with a special POWERPLAY spotlight at 12 PM Pacific USA time running throughout the next month.

A Return Marked by Reflection

After years of creative silence, British singer-songwriter and visionary Amrit Ghatore resurfaces with “Mirrors”—a soul-stirring debut that doesn’t just speak; it listens. Stripping back the noise, the track offers a raw and poetic meditation on identity, self-realization, and the truths we often avoid.

But “Mirrors” isn’t just a return—
It’s a reckoning.
A transformation.
A letting go.

Born in Stillness, Forged in Truth

Following a deliberate step away from the spotlight, Amrit didn’t disappear—he went inward. He listened deeply: to the world, to its silence, and to the questions that echo in solitude.

“Mirrors” emerged not from heartbreak, but from a deeper awakening—a moment of clarity in the blur of modern life. It’s a cinematic expression of spiritual confrontation, where vulnerability becomes a weapon and silence speaks volumes.

The Sound of Searching

Layered with delicate piano, moody guitar textures, and Amrit’s hauntingly intimate vocals, “Mirrors” plays like a quiet revelation.
It’s the sound of someone watching their reflection until it moves—without them.

The result is understated yet immense. Every note feels intentional. Every lyric leaves space to breathe.

At surface level, it’s a song about love and loss. But listen closely, and you’ll discover a journey inward—a mirror held up to the soul.

A New Era Begins

Known for his previous BBC-supported experimental releases, Amrit Ghatore steps into 2025 with a bold, redefined artistic vision—deeply rooted in introspection, spirituality, and unfiltered emotion.

This is more than just a single.
It’s the beginning of a new chapter.

“Mirrors” releases globally on April 19, 2025, and is available on Spotify, Apple Music, and all major streaming platforms.
