History
Nestled in Muroo, this hermitage welcomes those who seek quiet contemplation and spiritual refinement. Embraced by Shodoshima's abundant natural beauty, it draws many practitioners devoted to the path of ascetic discipline. This fox spirit perceives the luminous purity that suffuses these grounds and the depth of spirit found in those who come. The ongoing practice of those who have turned away from worldly concerns to polish their hearts continues quietly, unbroken by the march of time.
