History

Byakko

As its name suggests, Ryuzo-ji has served as a training ground for practitioners of strong spiritual resolve. The elephant's mighty strength and the dragon's soaring flight symbolize both the challenges of the path and the possibility of breakthrough. The temple continues to maintain its austere atmosphere, where seekers of the Way hone their hearts through rigorous spiritual discipline.
