Jōrin-ji Temple

京丹後市大宮町下常吉350

A Sōtō Zen Buddhist temple located in Kyōtanabe City, Kyoto Prefecture, officially known as Tōkōzan Jōrin-ji. It features a branch temple called Heida Jizō-in, which enshrines one of the largest Jizō Bosatsu (Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva) statues in the prefecture as its main image. The temple holds an annual ritual known as the Minori-ki Gōji (Cloak-Donning Ceremony).

History

Founded in 1667 by the Sōtō Zen monk Sōton, the temple relocated to its current site in 1710. In 1718, the mountain name was changed to Tōkōzan, and in 1833, the Heida Jizō-in branch temple was established. The temple was destroyed by fire in 1877, but the main hall was rebuilt in 1885.
