Daifuku-Ji 大福寺
室田之滝不動尊 Murota no Taki Fudo Waterfall
秀巌山 Shuganzan 瀧水院 Ryusui-In  

Gunma 群馬県


群馬県高崎市 / 5558 Nakamurodamachi, Takasaki, Gunma

Founded most probably by 最澄伝教大師 Saicho Dengyo Daishi when he traveled in the area.
Saicho carved the statue of Fudo Myo-O and built the hall to shelter it. Then he held a ritual to purify the statue and took one of his ritual tools, the dokko 独鈷 thunderbolt, and threw it outside at the rock, where the waterfall started to flow. Saicho said:
「滝に沐浴すれば総じて苦悩を洗い、
去りて秘境の極に至ることこの清泉に勝るものなし」
The present-day hall was built in 1802.

Many pilgrims came to the waterfall to pray for healing from diseases of the brain.
