開眼山 Kaigenzan 明星寺 Myojoji
宮崎県宮崎市吉村町寺ノ下甲2319 / Miyazaki, Yoshimura town, Teranoshita
The main statue is 釈迦如来 Shaka Nyorai.
The temple was founded in 1212 by 松平七郎兵衛尉上総入道景清公 Matsudaira Shichirobe Kagekiyo .
In 1538, the Zen Priest 徳尭隣公禅師 renewed it.
Priest Kagekiyo 入道景清 was a member of the Heike clan. In a grudge against 源頼朝 Minamoto no Yoritomo (1147 - 1199)
he pulled out both his eyes and lived alone in the mountains of Kirishimayama.
In his memory, 生目神社 the Shrine Ikime Jinja (Shrine for Living Eyes) was built.
People come here to pray for healing of eye diseases.
In 1633, 清水与右衛門 Shimizu Yoemon revived the temple
In 1820, the temple burned down.
In 1872, it was abolished as a temple.
Later Priest 恭山満堂和尚 revived it again.

The priest also built a nursing home for the elderly,
宮崎市立老人ホーム明星園 Miyazaki Shiritsu Rojinhomu Myoji-En.
This home was later removed to 阿波岐原町 Awakigahara town.
In 1965, the kindergarden 明星幼稚園 was opened.
A cultural property of the temple is a statue of 虚空蔵菩薩 Kokuzo Bosatsu.

The 生目神社 Shrine Ikime Jinja
Tucked away a short drive west of Miyazaki City lies one of Miyazaki's many great hidden gems, Ikime Shrine.
Perched on a large hill called Mt. Kamei, it is surrounded by massive trees.
While not as grandiose as the hugely popular Udo and Miyazaki Shrines, Ikime Shrine holds its own charm and appeal. Being tucked away from the city, it is one of the few shrines you can likely enjoy to yourself for some time.
The architecture style is also truly marvelous.
The Shrine itself is dedicated to Emperor Ōjin, the 15th emperor of Japan, according to the traditional order of succession, as well as Taira no Kagekiyo, a famous samurai rom the Taira clan during the late Heian period.
However, after talking with some locals in the area, I learned that many come to the shine to pray for healthy eyes and to cure eye diseases, as it is thought to be a place of healing.
