| The custom came to stay among the public in the castle town Hiroshima in the Edo period, and so, in and around today's Hiroshima City, some temples other than Jodo Shinshu also allow the dedication, but other temples, such as those of "Nichirenshu" (Nichiren Sect of Buddhism), rarely allow it. |
城下町広島では江戸時代以来庶民に定着してきたため、広島市周辺では他の宗派でも盆燈籠を認めている寺院もあるが、日蓮宗などのようにほとんど認めていない寺院もある。 |
