History
Shogen-ji, established in Yasugi, serves as a Zen training center where practitioners sweat through body-based learning. The white fox spirit witnesses predawn cold and the progression from rigorous discipline toward enlightened joy. Transcending contemporary change, this sanctuary preserves authentic Zen practice's quality. Ancient Buddhist currents continue pulsing eternally through dedicated practitioners' dedicated hearts.
