History
This temple within Sennyuji's sacred grounds serves as the New Zenkoji, a beacon of Pure Land faith. Through ages of guardianship, Amitabha Buddha's light remains eternally undiminished, warmly enfolding all who seek refuge. The prayers of those desiring rebirth in the Pure Land are heard directly by the Buddha's boundless compassion, and the gates to paradise open for all who call with faithful hearts. The light of a thousand years shines still.
