"Kodan" experience [Yagenbori Fudoin]

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] Nov. 2, 2015 12:00

One of the events of "Chuo-ku Marugoto Museum 2015" held on November 1 (Sun), I had a "lecture" experience at Yagenbori Fudoin.

Yagenbori Fudoin (2-6-8 Higashi-Nihonbashi) was founded in 424 at the Tokyo Besin Temple of Omotoyama Kawasakidaishi Hirama-ji Temple in the Shingon sect Chizan school, along with Meguro Fudo and Mejiro Fudo.

In addition, as you can see from the fact that there is a monument to the memorial of Kodan Shosho on the precincts, it is also said to be the birthplace of Edo Koshaku (by the way, there is a theory that Yushima Tenjin was the birthplace of Kodan Koza. The monument is located at the Otokozaka of Yushima Tenmangu Shrine).

The term "Juntendo departure place" is based on the establishment of Wada Juku, a Dutch medical school here in Yagenbori in 1838 (Tenpo 9).

At Yagenbori Fudoin, a talk session was held five times on the day, with a capacity of 30 people each time, and I participated for the third time.

The lecturer was Sadatomo Ichiryusai, a female lecturer and voice actor.

Mr. Sadatomo is singing "Maruko's mother" at "Chibi Maruko-chan".
