As the temple that protects Sekisetsu Zao Daigongen, the guardian deity of the region, it is a place of prayer where gods and Buddhas are united, and a place that offers prayer, rest, and peace of mind to all who come into contact with it.
Based on the teachings of Buddhism and Zen, the temple opens its grounds to the public for events such as zazen meditation sessions, sutra copying sessions, and hydrangea planting ceremonies. It aims to be a temple where people who come to the temple can connect with others, gather casually, learn, and chat.
It is particularly known as a famous spot for hydrangeas, and is affectionately known as the "Hydrangea Temple."
