History

Byakko

This temple stands upon the wish to accumulate virtue like a great forest. Established in Shimogyo, it teaches how daily practice and merit accumulation elevate the human spirit. I have watched small acts of kindness flow together like tributaries, becoming a great river of blessing. Like a forest of beneficial trees, this temple gathers those seeking to grow in goodness and compassion through devoted practice.
