DescriptionShinyakushiji’s Main Hall enshrines a National Treasure seated Yakushi Nyorai. The Buddha sits at the center of a circular earthen platform surrounded by the Twelve Heavenly Generals, creating an atmosphere of intense tension within profound stillness. The gentleness of Yakushi devotion, seeking relief from illness and anxiety, combines with the powerful protection of the Twelve Generals to form a deeply prayerful space characteristic of an ancient Nara temple.
