History

Byakko

Standing on Shichihommatu Street in Kamigyo Ward, Daiyuji Temple embodies the cosmic consciousness of Dainichi Buddha. The temple serves as a point of convergence where seekers can touch the fundamental wisdom underlying all existence. Within this sacred space, the boundaries between self and cosmos dissolve, allowing visitors to experience directly the Buddha-nature that pervades all phenomena.
