History
The bell of Shojuji rings across the islands where I pass. Quietly standing on Shinojima, this temple has been the spiritual anchor of island residents since ancient times. Prayers for longevity and family prosperity have been preserved for centuries. In this sea-surrounded place, prayers as long and deep as ancient pine trees continue.
