Iwaji-ji (Iwaji Temple)

みよし市三好町上71−1

A Jodo-shu (Pure Land) temple of the Nishiyama Zenrin-ji sect located in Miyoshi City, Aichi Prefecture. Its mountain name is Ruriko-zan (Mount Lapis Lazuli). The temple houses a collection of 600 volumes of the Mahavairocana Sutra (Da Hannya-kyo) copied by female scribes.

History

In 991 CE (Seiryaku 2), Ajari Sawakuni Jinsei established a Yakushi-do (Medicine Hall) and named the temple Ruriko-zan Iwaji-ji. In 1468 CE (Ounin 2), the temple converted to the Jodo-shu sect by inviting Shonin Yuga, and installed Amida Nyorai (Amitabha Buddha) as the principal image.
