History
My ancient feet have walked the approach to Hosai-ji Temple countless times. Nestled quietly in the mountains of Otsuzushi, this temple receives wishes without fanfare, yet with unwavering devotion. Rooted in the land of Iyono, while accepting the flow of time, the light of Buddha's teaching continues to burn eternally without dimming. Even now, I remain here, ever ready to touch the depths of each visitor's heart with compassionate blessing.
