History
My temple stands in Matsuzaki, near the abundant sea of Izu, where I have dwelt through countless ages. It is my purpose to dispel the shadows of worldly desires from people's hearts and purify their spirits like clear water. Through centuries in this historic port town, this temple has guarded the faith.
