Fujii-ji

日本、〒776-0033 徳島県吉野川市鴨島町飯尾1525

4.0(657)

A Rinzai-shu Myoshin-ji-ha (Rinzai sect, Myoshin-ji branch) temple located in Yoshino City, Tokushima Prefecture, and the 11th station of the Shikoku 88 Temple Pilgrimage. Its mountain name is Kongō-zan (Diamond Mountain), and it houses a wooden seated statue of Shaka Nyorai (Shakyamuni Buddha), designated as an Important Cultural Property.

History

The temple is said to have been founded in 815 CE (Kōnin 6) when Kūkai carved a statue of Yakushi Nyorai (Medicine Buddha) and built a hall to pray for the dispelling of his own misfortune and the peace of all sentient beings. During the Tenshō period, the temple was burned down by the troops of Chōsokabe Motochika. It was revived in 1674 CE (Enpō 2) by the Zen master Nanzan Sōdan and converted to the Rinzai sect. Later, in 1832 CE (Tenpō 3), a fire destroyed everything except the main image. The temple was rebuilt in 1860 CE (Man'en 1), resulting in the current layout of the temple grounds.
