History

Byakko

Named for the adamantine principle, this temple harbors power akin to the fierce flames of Fudō Myōō burning away all evil. I have long observed how the dark aspects of visitors' hearts are purified by this sacred fire. The holy realm depicted in the Kongōkai Mandala manifests itself in this sacred place. Practitioners seeking to strengthen their hearts against evil have gathered here through the ages. The power of adamantine truth endures undiminished.
