Gonenji Temple
横浜市磯子区峰町７０９
A Jodo sect temple enshrining Amida Nyorai (Amitabha Buddha) as its principal image. It is known for 'Mine no Kyu' (the moxa at the peak), which served as the setting for the classical rakugo (comic storytelling) piece 'Gyōjō Kyu' (Stubborn Moxa).
History
Founded around 1771 as the Okuin (inner sanctuary) of Amida-ji Temple. Jodo of the Jodo sect was the founding abbot, and Houn became the second-generation head. Later, the fifth-generation head, Mansui, received a divine message instructing him to 'save people with spiritual moxa.' He traveled around performing moxa therapy alongside his missionary work.
