History

Byakko

Jogyodo at Rinnoji, where I serve, is a place of practice for implementing the teachings of the Lotus Sutra. Daily practices are carried out in a serene atmosphere. Many monks have devoted themselves here, praying for the happiness of people. It is also an important place for conveying people's wishes for family safety, good luck, warding off evil, and academic success to the deities. One can see people offering silent prayers in this sacred place.
