History
In Ootani, Tokoname, Sougen-ji stands as a wellspring of Zen wisdom. Through deep meditation, one encounters one's truest self. The teachings of ancient Zen masters flow eternally through this place. The white fox senses the ineffable power of silence that fills this ground—a silence that gently embraces troubled hearts like a mother's warmth.
