History
Nikkozan Rinnoji Daigomado, as its name suggests, has long been a place where many people have offered their prayers for the practice of Gomaho (fire ritual). It is believed to have the power to burn away worldly desires and fulfill wishes, and many visitors seek blessings for exorcism and family safety. Prayers offered before the blazing flames are likely to purify the heart and provide new vitality.
