History

Byakko

Quietly nestled in Neyagawa's Temeno district, this temple teaches the virtue obtained in the western lands. Following the path toward the Pure Land in the west, many have awakened to their own mistakes and corrected their hearts. To gain virtue is not difficult—it is simply to maintain a pure heart and perform righteous deeds. This ancient temple reminds all visitors of this fundamental truth. The ancient wisdom it preserves remains most precious even in our modern age.
