History

Byakko

This temple in the ancient temple district of Higashiyama receives the power of Fudo Myoo, the great wisdom king. His righteous anger burns away the defilements of the human heart like purifying fire. Those who surrender to this sacred flame are reborn with a purified spirit. Myoo-ji's name reflects this subtle transformation guided by the Buddha's compassionate action. Still today it calms the hearts of many seekers.
