History
The temple of Ganzoji in Hamamatsu, which I have witnessed, stands as a place where Buddha's eye perceives the truth of the world. In the Kandacho district, seekers gather, hoping to open their own eyes to deeper understanding. Within these halls, the light of wisdom and insight flows freely, guiding all pilgrims toward genuine comprehension and awakening.
