Zengonzan Kobo-ji Temple (御朱印 - Goshuin) Founded in 1946 by Reverend Chisho Saito, it is located in a pleasant environment adjacent to Murasaki Shikibu Park. It belongs to the Koyasan Shingon sect and its principal image is Kobo Daishi. Reverend Chisho received her ordination under the guidance of the head priest of Osaka Kokubun-ji Temple, the head temple of the Koyasan Shingon sect. She began her worship in a small rented house with a hanging scroll of Kannon, and devoted herself to rigorous training, guiding those who came to her for consultation. One day, while visiting Kasuga Taisha Shrine in Nara with fellow practitioners, she received the name "San-itsu" (三一) from the Kasuga Myojin, who said, "You will become a practitioner who brings forth Buddhas in three directions." Wondering what this meant, she was able to dedicate a Dainichi Nyorai statue to Saizen-in Temple on Mount Koya in 1967. In 1970, she dedicated a Mizuko Kuyo Kannon Bosatsu statue within the grounds of Zenko-ji Daikanjin Temple in Nagano, and in 1980, she dedicated a statue of Amitabha Triad to Osaka Kokubun-ji Temple, the head temple. As foretold by the Kasuga Myojin, Buddhas appeared in three directions. Due to these achievements, she was awarded the rank of "Daizenni" (大禅尼) by the head priest of Kokubun-ji Temple in 1980. So, what does the "one" in "San-itsu" represent? The "one" represented the pivot of a fan, the establishment of a temple. At the end of 1984, she received a message from Kobo Daishi, "There is a place to build a temple in the south." In October 1986, the San-itsu Hall, the main hall, was completed at its current location, which was south of the prayer hall at the time, and a spiritual site of waterfalls and the Shikoku 88 Temple Pilgrimage sand-stepping site were established. On October 8, 1989, the 73rd birthday of Reverend Chisho, the dedication ceremony was solemnly held. The meaning of "San-itsu," which she received over 40 years ago, was fulfilled here.
