History

Byakko

This temple is Myōōin, quietly standing in Jūnisō, Kamakura. It is said to bring blessings for good luck, family safety, and conceiving a child. It is a place that has been cherished by local people since ancient times, where quiet prayers have been offered. I, too, am sometimes drawn to its calm atmosphere and visit. The principal image is Fudo Myoo, who protects people from disaster with his powerful form. The tranquil space surrounded by nature is perfect for calming one's mind. This white fox also cherishes its pure air.
