History

Shonenbutsu-ji enshrines the power of nenbutsu practice. In the quiet lands of Maruoka, generations of monks have chanted 'Namu Amida Butsu,' their voices reaching heaven and earth. This sacred chant brings Pure Land's hope to all hearts, and even the white fox feels peace when hearing it.
