Shoren-in Temple is derived from Shorembo in the Minamidani area of Mt. Hiei's Higashito district but was relocated to the bottom of the mountain when it became a monzeki temple during the time of Gyogen Daisojo at the end of the Heian period. 青蓮院は比叡山東塔の南谷にあった青蓮坊がその起源であり、門跡寺院となって山下に移ったのは平安時代末期の行玄大僧正の時である。 |
