Gofunai temples 20 and 21

The founding of this temple is not clear, maybe around 1400, on request of Emperor 後小松天皇 Gokomatsu Tenno (1377 - 1433).
The main statue is 身代不動明王 Migawari Fudo, said to be carved by Kobo Daishi.
Related to the shrine 愛宕神社 Atago Jinja.

In 1614, priest 宥俊和尚 Yushun came from Hitachi and founded a temple at 愛宕町 Atago village in Edo　(愛宕下 Atago no shita).
The temple was close to 徳川家康 Tokugawa Ieyasu, who offered a statue of 将軍地蔵尊 Shogun Jizo for the Inner Sanctuary.
In 1889 a statue of 高尾山飯綱不動明王 Iizuna Fudo Myo-O was offered from Takaozan.

豆腐地蔵 Tofu Bean Curd Jizo at Tofuku-in Temple

"The Tofu guardian deity of children" stands near the House of Aizome, right to the entrance facing Tofuku-in.
The statue of Tofu Jizo is about 107 centimeters high. There is the following legend about its origin:

- reference source :kanko-shinjuku.jp -

Once upon a time there lived a Tofu bean curd maker with wicked heart nearby.
Then all of a sudden, every day a Buddhist priest came to buy a piece of Tofu and put his money in the bamboo box. But when the Tofu maker looked at the money the next day, it had always turned into a piece of star anise. The man thought the priest must be a Tanuki or a Fox playing tricks on him, so the next time the priest stretched out his hand to put the money in the box, the wicked Tofu maker cut his hand with his long knife. The priest run away fast. The wicked Tofu maker hen followed the blood stains on the road and came to the gate of Tofuku-In, where a statue of Jizo Bosatsu was venerated and now had a bleeding arm.
Finally the wicked Tofu maker understood that Jizo wanted to teach him a lesson and from that day on, he became an honest businessman.

The main statue is in the back of the temple. A stone substitute is outside.
Nowadays people come here to rub the hand or arm of the Jizo statue, with the hope to heal their own wounds and get rid of pain.

塙保己一 Hanawa Hokiichi, Hoki-Ichi (1746 - 1821)
(23 June 1746 – 7 October 1821)

- quote -
a Japanese famous blind scholar and Buddhist monk of the Edo period.
Hokiichi became blind when he was 5 years old.
He learned history, literature, medical science and jurisprudence from several masters. One of them was Kamo no Mabuchi. Hokiichi compiled "Gunsho Ruijyu" (群書類従 Great collection of old documents).
In 1937,
Helen Keller came to Japan and visited Hokkiichi's memorial house. She expressed her impression as follows:
"When I was a child, my mother told me that Mr.Hanawa was your role model. To visit this place and touch his statue was the significant event during this trip to Japan. The worn desk and the statue facing down earned more respect of him. I believe that his name would pass down from generation to generation like a stream of water.

His memorial day is a kigo for Autumn.

Gofunai temples 16 and 17

This temple was founded in 1394 by 幸尊法印 priest Yukitaka. He was on a tour to promote Buddhism, when he passed near the pond 三寶池 Sanpoike, where he settled down and build his humble hut. That is the beginning of an important temple.
The main statue is 不動明王 Fudo Myo-O.
Another statue is of 紅頗梨色阿弥陀仏 Gubarijiki Amidabutsu.
Related to the shrine 愛宕社 Atago Shrine and 石神井社 Shakujii Shrine.

In 1477 the temple was relocated to ist present place by 太田道灌 Ota Dokan.
In 1591 it became a stipend of 10 石 koku and was declared a 御朱印寺 temple to distribute stamps.
(A koku of rice weighs about 150 kilograms.)
It is close to 池淵史跡公園 Ikefuchi Historical Park.

The third Shogun, 将軍家光　Tokugawa Iemitsu, often passed here during his falcon hunting and a special gate was constructed later for him to go through, 御成門 Onari-Mon , now the oldest existing building in the temple complex.

Shakujii Park (石神井公園, Shakujii Kōen) is a public park in the Japanese town of Shakujii, in Tokyo's Nerima ward. Established in 1959, it is one of the larger parks in the metropolis, after Ueno Park.
ishigami 石神 / しゃくじ (also red shakujin or shakuji) are specially formed stones, where people felt the power of the Deity. When villagers were digging for a i 井 well long long long ago, they excarvated a sekken 石剣 stone looking like a ritual sword. They revered it as a special stone. The well they dug became a lake in due time.
The park contains within it two ponds, 石神井池 Shakujii Pond and 三宝寺池 Sanpō-Ji Pond,, several small Shintō shrines, and the remains of Shakujii castle.
The Shakujii River runs east-west a short ways south of the park. The ponds are said to have formed naturally from the gushing up of underground water from the Musashino-dai Pond a short distance away. Over the years, however, the ponds have slowly shrunk, and so, in order to preserve the park's scenery and its recreational use, manmade systems have been installed to pump water into the ponds.
The castle ruins
date from the Kamakura period (1185-1333), or earlier, and thus it is known that the site was in use, and regarded as strategically important, for many centuries. The castle was the residence of the 豊島氏 Toshima clan of samurai, who ruled over the surrounding area in the 14th-15th centuries. The clan's destruction came largely at the hands of Ōta Dōkan, who was responsible for the construction of Edo castle; many of the ruins and shrines in the area are associated with him.

During the Edo period, farmers living nearby used the water to grow rice, barley, big radishes and other vegetables.

Nearby is also the shrine 石神井神社 Shakujii Jinja.
練馬区石神井町4-14

- quote -
Shakujii Myōjinshi 石神井明神祠 Shakuji Myojin Shrine

The 'Goshintai' (main object of worship in a Shinto shrine) of Shakujii Shrine in Shakujii-cho, Nerima Ward
is the stone sword (石剣 / 石神 Ishikami).
It is said that when a villager was digging a well, he uncovered 霊石 a sacred stone with a shape of stone sword,
it was enshrined as Ishikami (stone deity),
thus giving the location its name ("shaku" is written using the character for "stone").

Gofunai temples 14 and 15

This temple was founded in 1521 by priest 頼珍 Yoriyoshi.
The main statue is 不動明王 Fudo Myo-O.
The main hall had been rebuilt in 1960, the 鐘楼堂 bell tower in 1963

Related to the shrine 鷺宮八幡神社 Sagi no Miya Hachimangu. The temple name Shirasagizan (White Heron) comes from this relationship.

In the compound is a group of special statues :

福蔵院の十三仏 Jusanbutsu - the 13 Buddha statues
They protect the souls of those passed-away on the journey in the Nether World
and also babies and children as they grow up until the age of 13 (juusan).
8 of the statues were made between 1666 and 1685. The other 5 had been destroyed and are made in 1769 on behalf of 27 pious people.

This founding of the temple is not clear. It was maybe founded by a priest named 良弁僧都 Roben around 1520,
or much earlier around 1360.
The main statues are 薬師如来 Yakushi Nyorai, 不動明王 Fudo Myo-O and 聖観世音 Sho-Kannon.
In the 薬師堂 Hall for Yakushi there are many ema 絵馬 votive plaques since the year 1805.
The statue of Yakushi Nyorai is secret and only shown every 33 years.
The statue of Kannon is from the Fujiwara period, with some repairs in later times.
Roben made the statue for Yakushi Nyorai. Later in a dream Yakushi Nyorai gave him the recipe for a medicine called 白龍丸　Hakuryumaru, which is a cure for many things and so he could help many people. The distribution of this medicine was stopped in 1877, with the advent of Western medicine.
The 閻魔堂 Enmado Hall of the King of Hell was built with the intention to pray for good health and has a collection of 1000 small statues of Jizo Bosatsu for this purpose.

The 鐘楼門 bell tower gate
was probably constructed in the middle Edo period. It has a bell with an inscription dating to 1715.

The 南蔵院薬師堂 Yakushi Hall and the 南蔵院閻魔堂 Enma Hall (Enma, King of Hell) have been constructed in 1753.
