History

Byakko

Enyuji, known as Hossho Mountain, is a Nichiren temple proclaiming the powerful teachings of the Lotus Sutra. The Lotus Sutra, Buddha's final sermon, teaches the universal law that all beings can attain Buddhahood. Those who visit this temple inherit the sacred dharma of enlightenment. The faces of the believers here glow with clear conviction and steady faith. The passionate devotion of Nichiren Shonin continues to burn brightly across the eight centuries that have passed.
