History
This temple embodies the vast compassion of Avalokiteshvara. Fumon—the gate that opens to all—reflects its name's meaning: embracing and encompassing all wishes. As a sacred place where expectant mothers offer prayers, this temple celebrates the blessing of new life. I too surrender to the Bodhisattva's infinite compassion and vow.
