Experience of "Kodan" [Yagenbori Fudoin]

[The Minnie Cricket] 12:00 on November 2, 2015

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

Yagenbori Fudo-in Temple (2-6-8 HigashiShingon sect Nihonbashi) was founded in 424, and is known as Edo San Ofudo along with Meguro Fudo and Mejiro Fudo.

Also, as you can see from the fact that there is a "Kodan Shosho Memorial Monument" 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, and the birthplace of Kodan Koza The monument is located at the top of Otokozaka at Yushima Tenmangu Shrine).

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

At this Yagenbori Fudoin, a lecture meeting 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.

Sadatomo is playing the voice of "Mother of Maruko" in "Chibi Maruko-chan".
