History

Byakko

Sairyuuji embodies the meeting of Western Paradise and dragon divinity. The dragon, sacred water deity and celestial spirit, has been revered since ancient times. Prayers offered here bring rain and abundant blessings. The name 'Western Dragon' speaks of wings bearing seekers toward happiness. Upon those wings, all ascend toward bliss.
