Located in Takagamine Fujibayashi-cho, Kita-ku, Kyoto City, this temple is the head temple of the Shijo school of the Jishu sect. It is also called Shijo Dojo. In 1308 (Enkei 1), Joa of Kyoto's Gidarin-ji Temple prayed for the safe delivery of Emperor Gofushimi's Empress Kogimon'in, and a prince (Emperor Kogon) was born. In recognition of this achievement, he was appointed founder of Gidarin-ji Temple, renamed Kinren-ji Temple in 1311 (Ocho 1). He later built a temple in Shijo-Kyogoku and was granted the title of Shonin. The temple was destroyed in a great fire in 1788 (Tenmei 8), but was rebuilt in 1825 (Bunsei 8) and moved to its current location in 1926 (Taisho 15). The temple treasures include the 20 volumes of the "Illustrated Biography of Ippen Shonin." The Muromachi period poet Ton'a also lived here.

京都市北区鷹峯藤林(たかがみねふじばやし)町にある時宗(じしゅう)四条派の本山。四条道場ともいう。1308年(延慶1)、京都祇陀林(ぎだりん)寺の浄阿(じょうあ)が、後伏見(ごふしみ)天皇の皇后広義門院の安産を祈願したところ、皇子(光厳(こうごん)天皇)が生まれた。その功によって宣を受け、1311年(応長1)祇陀林寺を改めて金蓮寺と号し、開山となった。のち四条京極(きょうごく)の地に伽藍(がらん)を創建し、上人(しょうにん)号を許された。1788年(天明8)大火で堂宇を焼失したが、1825年(文政8)再建され、1926年(大正15)現在地に移った。寺宝に『一遍上人(いっぺんしょうにん)行状絵伝』20巻がある。室町時代の歌僧頓阿(とんあ)も住した。 [平井俊榮] 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 |
