History

Byakko

Hakka-ji Temple, guided by this spirit, nestled in Kurashima's sea, maintains purity like white lotus flowers. In this temple's hall, thousands of white lotus blooms flourish, their fragrance carried by sea breezes to distant places. The bodhi minds of those awakened to Pure Land teachings bloom fully here. I pray you too will achieve your wish for rebirth with a lotus-like white heart.
