It is the place of Emonsaburou legend.
Shikoku Pilgrimage, you will definitely hear
"Legend of Emon-Saburo衛門三郎伝説".
He is said to have performed Shikoku Pilgrimage
for the first time and is said to have been
a trigger person to generalization of Shikoku
pilgrimage.
The content of the story is as follows.
Emon Saburo was avaricious and inhumanity.
Saburo badly handled Kobo-Daishi Who was
on the way of a local sermon tour.
By divine punishment. Saburo's all eight
children of died.
He repents sin and became believe more in
Buddhism
It is saying that Saburo visited 88-temples
many times for apology.
He continued circling the Shikoku Shrine
21 times in search of the Kobo-Daishi(弘法大師)
, and fall dead on the street in the mountains
of No.12 Shouzanji(焼山寺).
Kobo-Daishi(弘法大師) appeared in front of
Saburo who was approaching death.Sabu apologized
for crying past "mistakes" and
was forgiven.
The people living near that place kindly
buried him.
And they set the Kongou-stick(金剛杖) he
had as a tomb.
Buds emerged from the cane and grew into
large cedar trees.
Currently under the trees the building"Joshinan(杖杉庵)"
is made..
If this story is true, there are lots of
doubts.
If it is a creation, We can understand as
a story of a commandment saying "Unfortunate
things can happen unless you are kind to
the Pilgrims."
