History

Byakko

As its name suggests, Kogeniun is the hall of wisdom with light as its source. Standing before Shokokuji, it symbolizes the fusion of Zen spirit and illumination. We have experienced many times the moment when external and internal light become one here. This place where Zen's deep contemplation harmonizes with light's radiance is the gateway to true awakening. Opening the light hidden in the heart's depths—such is Kogeniun's sacred role.
