Matsuoji Temple
和泉市松尾寺町2168
A Tendaishu sect temple located in Izumisano City, Osaka Prefecture, with the mountain name Amida-yama. It enshrines Jizaijin Kannon (the Kannon of the Wheel of Wishes) as its principal image and is designated as a stop on the Izumi West Country 33 Kannon Pilgrimage and the Izumi 88 Kannon Pilgrimage.
History
The temple's origins trace back to 672 CE (Tenmu 1), when En no Gyohaku performed esoteric rituals at the site, carved an image of Jizaijin Kannon, and built a small hall to house it. It was later revived by Taisho. The temple reached its peak as a place of prayer from the Nanbokucho period through the Muromachi period, receiving protection and prayer requests from figures such as Oda Nobunaga and Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. It was rebuilt in 1592 CE (Keicho 7) through the donation of Toyotomi Hideyori and is now a Tendaishu temple.
