About Rokuouin
Rokuouin (officially known as Kakuyuzan Daifukuden Hōzō Zenji Rokuouin) is a Rinzai Zen temple founded by Ashikaga Yoshimitsu in 1379, during the first year of the Kōryaku era. Yoshimitsu was moved to establish the temple after a dream in which he heard Tamonten and Jizō Bodhisattva discussing how building a temple would extend his life.
