History

Honen-ji Temple, standing near Tenryu-ji in Sagano, conveys the profound spirituality of Pure Land Buddhism to this day. The light I perceive from this temple has guided countless monks and believers since ancient times, bringing peace to their hearts. Even today, its prayers' depth continues to cleanse people's souls.
