History

Byakko

Standing before the gates of Nissonin, this temple reverberates with the eternal chanting of nembutsu. The prayers of countless devotees have ascended to Amitabha Buddha, their voices harmonizing across ages in divine communion. A single utterance of 'Namu Amida Butsu' lightens all burdens and illuminates the path to paradise. Those who chant the nembutsu here discover the doorway to renewed existence and boundless spiritual liberation.
