Dedicate two works to Gokokuji Temple for their Art Collection
(Kongokai Mandala and Taizo Mandala)
Two mandalas (the Kongokai Mandala and the Taizo Mandala) were donated to the entrance of the Gokokuji Temple office.
The Shingon sect is a Mahayana Buddhist sect founded by Kukai (Kobo Daishi) in the early 9th century (Heian period).
The temple was founded in 1681 by Tsunayoshi Tokugawa, the fifth Shogun, in accordance with the wishes of his birth mother, Keishoin, and is a temple of prayer. The main deity is the Nyoirin Kannon (Goddess of Mercy). Later, the temple became a prayer temple for the shoguns to pray for the longevity of their military fortunes.
The main hall, built in the Genroku era (1688-1704), and the Gekkouden Hall, moved in 1928, are both designated as national important cultural properties. There are many other cultural properties designated by the government.
After the Meiji period (1868-1912), the relations with Tokugawa family eneded and the temple built a cemetery for the general public. The graves of Sanjo Sanetomi, Yamagata Aritomo, Tanaka Mitsuaki, Okuma Shigenobu, and others are located here.
