History
The Horinja temple nestled deep in the mountains of Tahara is a place filled with the compassion of Kannon Bodhisattva. When this fox visits, there is a profound stillness yet a gentle warmth that embraces the heart. The compassionate heart of Kannon, witnessing human suffering and seeking to ease it, dwells within these temple halls.
