A Nichiren Shu temple located in Komine, Kamogawa City, Chiba Prefecture, which houses the graves of Nichiren's parents. The mountain name is Myonichi-san.
History
The temple was founded by Nichiren's disciple, Nichi-sei, as the head priest on the site where the graves of Nichiren's father, Kaname Shigetada, and his mother, Ume-ki, are located. The mountain name and temple name are derived from the dharma names 'Myonichi' and 'Myoren' that Nichiren bestowed upon his father and mother, respectively. The current main hall was rebuilt in 1857 CE (Ansei 4).
