Gesho-ji Yurai Ryakki (Brief Account of the Origins of Gesho-ji Temple)
明石市人丸町１
A Soto Zen Buddhist temple located in Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture, enshrining the Eleven-Faced Kannon as its principal image. It is also the 33rd station of the Akashi Western Country Pilgrimage.
History
The temple's origins trace back to Kozan Yuyugyou-ji, founded by Kukai in 811 CE. In 887 CE, Kakushou established the Hitomaru Shrine and changed the temple's name to Gesho-ji. Initially a Shingon Buddhist temple, it converted to the Soto Zen school in 1575 and relocated to its current site in 1619. During the Edo period, it was integrated with Kamamoto Shrine, but was separated from it following the Meiji government's edict separating Shinto and Buddhism.
