History
In the deep mountain village of Minami-Koumatsu, this annex temple I watch over is a beacon showing the path to the Pure Land. In Akasawa, many believers have gathered, entrusting themselves to the Original Vow of Amitabha Buddha. Their hopes for karmic purification and rebirth in paradise fill this place. In the silence, the resonance of dharma echoes eternally.
