History

Byakko

As a branch temple of Kōkun-ji, this site carries the torch of Pure Land Buddhism here in Tosu. This quiet place of practice has become a refuge for those whose hearts bear doubt and confusion. I have long witnessed how many hearts find salvation here and their faith in Pure Land deepens. The voice of Buddha recitation continues reaching heaven even today.
