    Yanaizu Kokuzouson Temple is a historic temple that, according to tradition, was founded in 807 A.D. by Tokuitsu Daishi. The main object of veneration in the Temple is the statue of “Fukuchiman Kokuzo Bosatsu” that is said to have been carved by the bodhisattva Gyoki, praying three times after each stroke of the blade. The statues of guardian deities Mahakala and Vaisravana that are positioned on the left and right sides of the main statue are said to be the work of Kobo Daishi. There are a number of mysterious legends relating to the Temple, including the legends of the moon-viewing well and the pine tree of child-bearing, etc.; these legends are collectively referred to as the “Seven Mysteries of Kokuzozon.” The Temple has a café which offers irori hearth-cooked cuisine, and which is a great place to take a rest after worshipping at or visiting the Temple.

    今年最後の御朱印なら虚空蔵様でと思い、参拝して御朱印いただきに。。。しかしこんなやつには書かないぞ‼️の掟？４ヶ条くらいあり、１ページずつ今までいただいた御朱印チェックされ、ひとつ４ヵ条にあてはまりいただけませんでした。神社の御朱印でした。お寺と神社の御朱印を分けろと言われたのはしかたないけど、チェックされるのは気分悪いし、なんだかどーなってるの？と驚きました。２年前は別のお坊様で、快く書いていた...

    Miyagi Pref. Kuriharashi Tsukidateyakushidai 1-1

    旧・奥州街道をランニングで旅した際に通りかかりました。双林寺の境内に薬師堂がありました。この建物は釘を一本も使わずくさびで造られているそうです。建築は寛政初年頃といわれているそうで、これだけ立派な建物が残されていることに感謝ですね。

    Miyagi Kurihara-shi Kannarinakamachinishiura 21

    旧・奥州街道をランニングで旅した際に通りかかりました。敷地入口から続く参道は両サイドに桜が植えられていてトンネルのようになっていました。金成の街の中では少し小高い位置にあり、街を見守る役目であったことがよくわかります。
