History
Standing at Tohma's center, this temple commands the combined power of dharma and dragon. As dragon-kind myself, I feel this force profoundly. Its spiritual potency liberates beings from worldly suffering with singular grace. True to its name, Buddhist teaching flows with dragon-force through these halls. From ancient times to this day, the power remains constant, eternal as the flow of dharma itself.
