Ichibata Yakushi Temple Shimane
Equivalent of a Japanese "Lourdes" for people with eye problems
Founded in 894.
Ichibata Yakushi Temple, perched on a mountaintop in Shimane Prefecture is the equivalent of a Japanese "Lourdes" for those with any kind of eye complaint, with hundreds of thousands of pilgrims making their way there every year.
A local fisherman found the sculpture of Yakushi washed up on a local beach. The current along the Shimane coast comes from Korea, so this is the probable source of the statue.
He took it home and prayed fervently in front of it, and many miracles occurred, the most relevant being his blind mother had her sight restored.
The temple was built on the mountaintop overlooking the coast, with expansive views of it, as well as views of Lake Shinji in the other direction. Being on a mountaintop there are steps leading up to it, 640 in all, but a road and bus now goes all the way to the top and few people climb the stairs, except once a year when a race is held which draws distance runners from all over.
Ichibata Yakushi Temple was originally of the Tendai Sect of Buddhism, but then became Rinzai Zen, and though the temple still maintains its Rinzai lineage, it became a Kyodan (a religious corporation, or church) and operates outside the Buddhist hierarchy.
To facilitate the journey for the pilgrims a railway line was built, and there are the usual line of souvenir shops on the approach to the temple. They have also branched out to specialize in children, and also pets.
Another money-making scheme is a couple of rental cabins within the temple grounds, built on a bluff with wonderful views, that are available for a reasonable fee.
The Ichibata-ji Kaikan (Inn) is open from mid-March to mid-November and has tatami rooms and futon bedding.
As well as the views from the temple, 84,000 statues of Yakushi Nyorai, donated by pilgrims and supporters, are well worth a view, as are 108 stone lanterns, also donations. 108 is believed to be the number of evil passions.
The temple buildings at Ichibata Yakushi include the main hall (Hondo) which was rebuilt in 1890, a meditation hall or Zendo which has zazen sittings on Saturday evenings and the Hatto or study hall that dates from 1807.
