History
Myouou-in burns with the fierce compassionate wrath of Acalanatha. Only the courageous should seek this place. Yet the real enemy lies not outside, but within—in attachment and delusion. The sacred fire here consumes not external evil, but the inner obstacles that bind us. This is true salvation.
