History
In Kanazawa's Korai district stands a temple proclaiming teachings as clear as a spring's pure waters. Hosen-ji is itself a fountain from which the most exalted light flows. Within each human heart lies an original spring of purity, though dust and defilements may have clogged its source. Through sincere devotion, this sacred wellspring flows forth anew, crystalline and life-giving. Visitors forever seek this clarity at this ancient Kanazawa temple.
