History
The pearl in Shusen-in represents perfect, complete form; the spring symbolizes eternally fresh waters flowing forth. The hidden power of this temple keeps the human heart ever renewed and clear. Freed from old attachments, visitors learn to see the world with fresh eyes. In this place I have long tended, many experience rebirth.
