History
Koumyou is not the blinding brilliance, but the subtle light dwelling within silence. This temple in Asahikawa treasures the faint light kindled deep within the heart. However profound the darkness, those who preserve this light will surely find their way. This subtle illumination shines eternally through this sacred place.
