History

Byakko

Heaven's nature refers to the fundamental essence of the vast cosmos itself. This temple in Nakagyou has guided seekers toward understanding the principles of heaven and earth since ancient times. The white fox feels pure vibrations ceaselessly emanating from this sacred place. Worldly dust vanishes instantly before this temple's grace. Here dwells the salvation of returning to one's original nature, unclouded and pristine.
