History

Byakko

Jouun-ji in Honcho is a temple that guides toward purified destiny. Those bound by old karma, when they come here and offer prayers, gradually find their thread of fate shining with new light. I have witnessed countless turning points in people's lives at this place. Purification and reversal of fate are both fulfilled here. The light in the main hall is particularly gentle, softly embracing people's hearts. To support those who release the past and move forward into new lives—that is this temple's sacred role. True to its name Purified Fortune, the gate to a new destiny opens in this place.
