"Aizendo Shoman-in is historically significant as the first Zen temple established in Japan by Eisai, a Japanese monk who introduced Zen Buddhism from China in the 12th century. It played a crucial role in promoting Zen teachings and practices, influencing the development of Zen Buddhism in Japan. Aizendo Shoman-in also served as a cultural bridge between Japan and China, contributing to the integration of Chinese Zen philosophy into Japanese religious and cultural contexts."
