Cultural Heritage of Shikoku's Eighty-Eight Temples - 3: Sculpture of the Hondō (Main Hall)
//
The pilgrimage circuit of 88 temples on Shikoku island of Japan is the road over 1400 kilometers to visit the temples related to Kukai (777-835), Buddhist priest. There are many National Treasures and Important Cultural Properties among the temples. The road starts in Tokushima, going through Kōchi and Ehime, and ends in Kagawa.
//
The temple was founded by Gyōgi on the model of Miroku's Tusita Heaven. In 815 Kōbō Daishi performed a 21 day Goma of Victory ritual here and carved the honzon. On the temple grounds is the triangular goma altar used by Kōbō Daishi in that ceremony. The temple's name comes from that triangular altar.
Emperor Saga endowed the temple with 750 acres of land and it prospered until the 16th century, controlling 12 branch temples. At that time the temple was destroyed by fire and then restored.
The name of the mountain (Sangō) on which this temple is located is Yurei-san (Ghost Mountain) because legend states that a ghost once lived around the temple and caused a lot of trouble. Kōbō Daishi got rid of the ghost through a Goma ritual, using the sankaku altar.
In addition, there is a small triangular pond on the temple grounds as well as a statue of Jizō. At the Okunoin, the honzon is Kōbō Daishi. This is where he prayed to rid himself of the bad luck that comes with being 42 years old.
This temple is also dedicated to easy childbirth but there is a twist. The expectant mother is supposed to pretend to break into the temple and steal a ladle, which she then places under her bed. After the delivery, she brings the ladle back to the temple for someone else to take and hide. - Buy Now:
