妙厳寺 豊川稲荷 Toyokawa Inari

愛知県豊川市豊川町1番地 / Aichi, Toyokawa city, Toyokawa town

The main statue is 千手観音 Senju Kannon with 1000 Arms.

The famous Toyokawa Inari Shrine 豊川稲荷
is visited by many devotees every year and many Daruma dolls are sold there during the New Year period and on Ocotber 5th, the memorial day of Daruma san.
Toyokawa Inari Shrine is one of the three big Inari Fox shrines in Japan.
In the precincts are a Shinto shrine and a Buddhist temple.
The temple is called Empukuzan Myogonji (妙厳寺) or simply Toyokawa Kaku.
Constructed as a temple of the Soto Zen sect in 1441 by Master Tokai Gieki Zenji, it enshrines the deity
Dakini Shinten (ダキニ真天、だきに天), which was introduced by Master Kanzan Zenji (1217-1300) as a guardian deity.

The Godess Dakini appeared to him on a rough sea trip home from China and when he settled down, he carved a beautiful image of Dakini riding on a fox, carrying a sheaf of rice. She soon became the protector of the Mikawa area and many people prayed to her for good business, for having many children and other worldly benefits, especially while Mikawa was famous for its shipbuilding industry during the Edo period.
The famous magistrate of Edo, Ooka Echizen, who came from Mikawa, was one of the strong believers in Dakini Shinten and had a temple in her honor installed in the precincts of his home in Edo.

- quote
The temple Jogan-Ji was built by Kurou Suzuki 鈴木九郎 Suzuki Kuro in 1438.
Originally this was at another place in Nishi-Shinjuku district.
This was moved to the current place in the early Edo era, around 1600.

He was poor at first, but he became rich finally.
However he lost his daughter one day, and he became the Buddhist priest after that.

八事山 興正寺 Yagoto san Kosho-Ji
愛知県名古屋市昭和区八事本町78番地
Koushoji Temple
The extensive grounds of Yagoto-san Koushoji stretch across slopes in eastern Nagoya.
In 1686, famed monk Tenzui opened a temple among the trees in the peaceful setting of these rolling hills. This temple was then strongly connected with the historically important lords of the Owari branch of the ruling Tokugawa family. Well visited by pilgrims, it is also a site on the Chita-Shikoku 88 Merit-making, the Tokai 36 Fudo, the Owari 33 Kannon, the Nagoya 21 Daishi, and Nagoya 7 Lucky Gods prayer circuits.
The precincts cover two hills, Nishiyama to the west and Higashiyama to the east. Nishiyama formerly included the land where the Main Hall and Five-storey Pagoda are now located. In Higashiyama, you can see numerous structures, including magnificent halls and towers, built since the 17th century among the flourishing trees.
Within the grounds you can marvel at the only wooden pagoda in the whole Tokai region. Built in 1808, this elegant Five-storey Pagoda is a National Important Cultural Asset. Everywhere, in the ancient documents held in the halls, and in the Buddhist images and implements, you can see the centuries-old roots of history.
For each generation throughout 330 years, the gates of Yagoto-san Koushoji have been open to all who want to enter. Still today, young monks come here for training and, more than ever, the local people often come just to enjoy a stroll. On land that has been long revered, among ancient structures and monuments, surrounded by nature, you can find peace and leave your cares behind.
