Hōshin Jinja

What I shall speak of is Hōshin-ji Temple in Izumi-cho, Izumi-ku, Yokohama. The name Hōshin-ji seems to represent the Buddhist teaching of wishing to possess a precious heart like a treasure. This temple has gathered quiet devotion as a spiritual haven for local people. The precincts have a calm atmosphere, providing solace to visitors. It is said to have benefits closely related to people's lives, such as family safety, good health, and good luck and warding off evil, attracting many worshipers. It is a shrine with a rich history where one can find a precious heart like a treasure in silence and apply it to daily life.
