The temple that triggered Ikko Ikko

Jingu-ji Temple is one of the bases of Mikawa Ichiyokuchi that greatly suffered Tokugawa Ieyasu. (Mikawa Ichigo Ichijo Sangera) There are many explanation boards.

Although the main hall is very modern, I was honestly surprised by the curved design. Curiously, when you think of a temple, it's easy to accept that it's a temple, and it looks like a prestigious building. It may be unscrupulous, but I thought it was a sophisticated and cool temple. In 1988, the main hall and the back of the warehouse were completely burned down, and in 1996, it was rebuilt with a modern copper plate roof. By the way, don't forget the famous temple of Mikawa Ikko-ikki. This Kamimiyaji, Shomanji, and Honshoji are the bases of the Jodo Shinshu Honganji sect in Mikawa and are called Mikawa Mikawaji, and have been given the privilege of not being a guardian in the place of Matsudaira Hirotada (Ieyasu's father). I did. However, it is said that Ieyasu's vassals tried to forcibly collect rice at Kamimiyaji, which has the privilege of not being a guardian, and it developed into a riot. Since Jodo Shinshu was supposed to be able to go to Sukhavati Jodo as long as he worshiped Amida Nyorai, Ikko-ikki spread all at once, and there were considerable believers in Ieyasu's vassals as well as farmers and samurai. In addition, the lords who did not think Ieyasu well joined there, and it was an event that was handed down as one of the three major crises of Ieyasu alongside the battle of Mikatagahara and the god Ieyasu crossing. The bases of Mikawa Ikko-ikki were this "Kamimiyaji", "Honshoji", "Shomaji" and Toro's "Honshoji". Below is an excerpt from the Kamimiyaji website In 1562, a vassal of Ieyasu Matsudaira (Ieyasu Tokugawa) broke into Kamimiyaji and forcibly collected troops. At that time, Ieyasu had just returned to Mikawa from his hostage life, aiming for independence from the Imagawa clan, and was trying to bring indigenous forces under his control in order to gain strength. However, Mikawa Moroji, who received this as a wolf, was indignant and joined forces that did not form a group on the Ieyasu side, and Mikawa Ikko-ikki began. The rebellion lasted for a year and a half, but in the end the exhausted temples were defeated, the temples were destroyed, the shaved people were expelled from abroad, and Mikawa lost the Honganji temples and dojos.

It is one of the three temples related to Mikawa Ikko-ikki. To put it better ………… It's very modern, it's like a temple. Is it a financial problem! ?? There was no remnant of a temple that lived in a historic and turbulent era. Personally, I feel sad. The times ………… Is it? It's a venerable temple, so at least the red stamp isn't printed (hanko) ... Please write it by hand ... Well ... Isn't it better just to do it! ?? Overall, Jodo Shinshu, especially the Otani faction, It is a rough handling. Shinran of Jodo Shinshu is It's a sect of Honen's disciples! ?? The Jodo sect of Shinran's teacher, Honen's teaching, has never been refused even if he asks for a red stamp, and he accepts it comfortably, but the Shinran Otani faction is definitely refused by about 100%. I want to say that I refuse, even though I am a disciple's sect. Not only here, but to all Jodo Shinshu people. Moreover, the attitude is bad overall. I would like you to emulate the Jodo sect, the Soto sect, and the Nichiren sect.
