History

Deep in Ijino, Soja, this temple holds the profound wisdom of the Heart Sutra, gateway to enlightenment. Generations of practitioners have meditated here, seeking truth beyond words and concepts. The temple's quiet strength radiates from its commitment to wisdom itself, that highest of Buddhist virtues. In standing with such seekers through the ages, I have glimpsed the vastness toward which all sincere practice aims.
