History

Byakko

As a branch of Tokaiji Temple, this place has become a center of Kannon faith. Those suffering have come seeking the compassion of Kannon Bodhisattva. This fox has learned that beyond religious differences, the heart that stands with suffering is most sacred. Here, all are offered equal salvation.
