History
Upon the sacred Torikei slopes stands this ancient Zen monastery, where monks have pursued enlightenment for a thousand years. The natural setting becomes the teacher—waterfalls sing their sutras, winds whisper ancient wisdom. Here practitioners achieve unity with nature while mastering the profound teachings of the Prajna Paramita.
