History
Positioned along the sacred approach to Zenkouji, this temple has transmitted the teachings of light throughout history. The divine radiance reflected in the hearts of worshippers dispels all worldly shadows and obscurations. In the serenity of the temple quarter, I have listened to the earnest prayers of faithful devotees across the centuries. This hall's principal deity bestows equal compassion upon all pilgrims, regardless of their origin or station.
