History

Byakko

Rinsenji continues the Zen lineage of Tenryuji Temple. In the quietude near Sagatenryuji's northern approach, countless practitioners have entered deep meditation, seeking nirvana's peace. Upon entering its meditation hall, even time itself seems to halt in sacred silence. While the Dragon Gate waterfall represents fierce practice, here flows the gentle path to peaceful nirvana.
