History
This temple embodies the adamantine power of Acala Buddha. Vajra symbolizes the firm, unmovable, and pure and righteous. Standing in Kasama, this temple has served as a guide for those needing to sever delusion and attachment. I sense its unwavering resolve and the truth that its power has saved countless souls.
