History

What I shall introduce is Jishō-in Temple in Kamaribuya-higashi, Kanazawa-ku, Yokohama. The name Jishō-in seems to represent the Buddhist teaching of accepting oneself as one is. This temple has gathered quiet devotion as a spiritual haven for local people. The precincts have a calm atmosphere, providing solace to visitors. It is said to have benefits closely related to people's lives, such as family safety, good health, and good luck and warding off evil, attracting many worshipers. It is a shrine with a rich history where one can confront oneself and purify the mind in silence.
