History
Standing in Ueno-esucho, Iga, this temple serves as a practice hall for those seeking minds as clear and pure as the water of a lotus pond. Those studying the dharma and practicing nembutsu gather here, washing away mental impurities and seeking the serene clarity of the lotus. Through long years of practice, devotees gradually approach the path of Buddha. The prayers of those ascending from the depths toward enlightenment pulse steadily through this sacred place.
