History
As I have heard, this is the story of a temple that mirrors the heart like a perfect circle. This temple, standing quietly in the north of Motosu County, has mirrored the hearts of visitors and illuminated their true nature. Transmitting the ancient teachings of Zen, this temple has dispelled the delusions of many seekers and continues to show the path to truth. Even now, the light of that perfect mirror continues to illuminate the hearts of many and increase their purity.
