History
Sainen-ji Temple, nestled in Inada, Kasama, continues to uphold the teachings of Pure Land Buddhism. True to its name, it has lit the way for those who seek the Western Pure Land. Through a thousand years of history, countless believers have chanted Namu Amida Butsu. I have heard those chanted words and watched over the purification of each individual heart.
