History
This temple bearing the name Jisho-in in Madate, Bandou continues to teach the importance of knowing one's true self-nature. When I visited, I witnessed many seekers confronting their own hearts, moved by their sincerity. The prayers of those seeking to recover their true selves surpass all things. In this place, many discover their own light and begin walking new paths.
