History
Ume-Ki-Sha in Hikone symbolizes loyalty and moral integrity. Those who study here learn that righteousness matters more than profit or advantage. In this quiet place, the refinement of character continues through earnest practice. In an age where material gain dominates, such a sanctuary for the spirit becomes increasingly precious. Though its name is unassuming, the power within is profound. The goshuin here blesses those who walk the path of justice and honor.
