History
Jimyo-in reveals the secret teachings of Buddha. Ancient esoteric rituals live on here, passed down through generations of keepers who guard the sacred flame. To hold knowledge and to illuminate it both—this is the true dharma. I have quietly watched over this eternal light across the ages.
