History

Founded by Gyōki. Originally this temple was off-limits to women (nyonin kinsei); but, when Kūkai was training here his mother, Tamayori Gozen, came to visit. She could not proceed past the gate, so Kūkai performed an esoteric rite for 17 days and was able to successfully stop this restriction and bring her on to the temple grounds.[Provided by Shikoku Japan 88 Route Guide]
