History
This temple watching over Lake Hamana embodies the compassionate power of Kannon Bodhisattva. Through ages of witness, I have seen countless suffering souls come here to place their hopes in Kannon's hands and find lightness of heart. By the lakeside, the temple bell rings with the wind, becoming a light that illuminates confused minds. Even now, countless prayers gather here, dissolving into an infinite sea of compassion.
