Olsen Posted February 15, 2013 Share #11501 Posted February 15, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) It's a Tochoi temple. But name: Fukuoka Daibutsu? - Or Nangakuzan? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Hi Olsen, Take a look here "Do you know the world ?" -- Competition --. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Dirk Van der Herten Posted February 15, 2013 Share #11502 Posted February 15, 2013 Daibutsu only means "The Great Buddha (statue)", of which there are several in Japan. But with Nangakuzan you are getting closer. This is not the normal name of the Tōchō-ji (= the temple we were looking for), but an honorific, used for several Buddhist temples, one of these being the Tōchō-ji in Fukuoka. Another is the Nangakuzan Komyoji Temple, Ehime on Shikoku. This honorific name refers to Kūkai, also called Kōbō-Daishi, a Buddhist monk who founded the Shingon school of Buddhism. See Kūkai - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Your turn now, Olsen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
