History
I, the white fox, tell of a training hall deep within Minobu, preserving the teachings of the Lotus Sutra. Known as Daiko-bo, it has served as a place of rigorous spiritual discipline for generations of monks. Gazing toward Minobu's great temple, they have accumulated countless hours of devoted practice. Some pilgrims journey here specifically to deepen their own meditation, finding themselves in a place where silence and prayer intertwine most perfectly.
