History

Byakko

Within the precincts of Yakushi-ji, this young Hachiman shrine radiates the gentle protection of the divine feminine. Its very name speaks of the virtue of rest—to pause, recover strength, and rise renewed. Countless visitors have found their burdens lightened here, their spirits restored through communion with the compassionate deity who understands human weakness and offers sanctuary from the endless demands of worldly life.
