History
This temple, serving as the source of long spiritual practice, watches over the enlightenment of practitioners within Mise's profound silence. It continuously proves how the accumulation of daily practice yields profound transformation. True to its name meaning 'source,' it remains an eternal wellspring of learning and practice, invaluable to all sincere seekers. This fox has passed through these gates many times to return to right mindfulness.
