This situation continued until the mid-Heian period, but Koyasan began to make a recovery after FUJIWARA no Michinaga climbed it (making a pilgrimage to a shrine on the mountain), and he was later followed by the Imperial Family, the Sekkan-ke (the families which produced regents), and court nobles. この状態が平安時代中期まで続くが、藤原道長が高野山に登山(山上の寺社に参詣すること)したことにより復興が進み、皇族・摂関家・公家が高野山への登山が続いた。 |
