History
Koya-ji Temple, which I have watched over for long ages, is a place where the Buddha's teachings take deep root. Through countless seasons, pilgrims' feet have been drawn here continuously. In the quiet streets of Honmachi, the compassionate light of Buddha shines eternally without pause. Whether troubled in heart or filled with joy, all who visit find peace under this temple's embrace. My tail, too, sways in the breeze each day, wishing only for the happiness of those who come to pray.
