Buddhist temples named Chokyu-ji often maintain the practice of striking the temple bell 108 times on New Year's Eve, representing the 108 earthly desires in Buddhist teaching that practitioners seek to overcome on their path to enlightenment.
Like many temples named '長久' (chokyu), this temple was likely founded during the Kamakura or Muromachi period when Buddhist institutions aimed to become permanent in local communities, often supported by samurai families seeking spiritual merit.
The temple's architecture likely follows the traditional Zen or Pure Land Buddhist style, featuring a main hall (hondo) that serves as a meditation space and a repository for sacred Buddhist texts passed down through generations.
The name 'Chokyu-ji' (長久寺) literally means 'Temple of Long Duration,' reflecting the Buddhist concept of eternal enlightenment and the aspiration for the temple's teachings to endure through countless generations.
