小山市小薬307

3.7(7)

A Jodo-shu (Pure Land) temple located in Oyama City, Tochigi Prefecture. Its mountain name is Tagu-san, and its court name is Muryu Jyu-in.

History

It is said to have originated from the Shou Nen-an (Chanting Hall) built in 1190 CE (Kenkyu 1) by the nianfo practitioner Da-in Ajari. Alternatively, there is a theory that it was founded in 1416 CE (Ouei 23) when Kajiwara Sakuyou took refuge in the teachings of the high priest Ryo-gyo. During the Muromachi period, it served as the family temple of the Kajiwara clan, and during the Edo period, it received a vermilion seal letter from the shogunate.
