History

The Four Kings Hall within Saidai-ji enshrines the Four Great Bodhisattvas, supporting Buddha's teachings from all cardinal directions. These eastern, western, southern, and northern Bodhisattvas work upon the four dimensions of human consciousness, guiding seekers toward balanced enlightenment. Visitors discover the Buddha's light reaching into every corner of their hearts.
