A sacred place of Jizo Bodhisattva located in the southwest of Qingyang County, Anhui Province, China. It is considered one of the four great mountains along with Mount Putuluo of Kannon, Mount Emei of Fugen, and Mount Wutai of Manjusri. It was called Mount Jiuzi in ancient times, but was renamed Mount Jiuhua by the Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai. It is said that the site of Li Bai Shudo Hall was located in the mountains. Nine peaks stand tall, and the area is blessed with scenic beauty of oddly shaped rocks, bizarre stones, and streams. At the foot of the mountain are Kejoji Temple, Gionji Temple, and Jiuzi Temple, and many worshippers visit the sacred place of Jizo faith. It is also famous as the place where Wang Yangming (Wang Shouren) of the Ming Dynasty realized the principle of "realizing one's innate knowledge of good."

中国、安徽(あんき/アンホイ)省青陽県の南西にある地蔵菩薩(じぞうぼさつ)の霊場。観音(かんのん)の普陀洛山(ふだらくさん)、普賢(ふげん)の峨眉山(がびさん)、文殊(もんじゅ)の五台山(ごだいさん)とともに四大名山の一つとされる。古くは九子山(きゅうしざん)といわれたが、唐代の詩人の李白(りはく)によって九華山と改称された。そのため山中に李白書堂の基址(きし)があったという。九つの峰がそびえ立ち、奇岩、怪石、渓流の奇勝に恵まれている。山麓(さんろく)には化城(けじょう)寺、祇園(ぎおん)寺、九子寺などがあり、地蔵信仰の霊場として参拝者が多い。また明(みん)の王陽明(おうようめい)(王守仁(おうしゅじん))が「致良知(ちりょうち)」の理を悟得した所としても有名である。 [鎌田茂雄] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
