Yoshimitsu retired in in favor of his nine-year-old son Yoshimochi, and the following year, at the youthful age of thirty-eight, took full Buddhist orders.
His decision seems to have been informed by both his past experiences and hopes for the future. He had succeeded to the post of shogun as a boy of nine, upon the death of his father Yoshiakira, and in the twenty-nine years of his reign he faced many challenges-which he rose to admirably, successfully resolving the schism between into Northern and Southern imperial courts, reuniting Japan, and bringing peace to the realm.
Having accomplished this, he apparently longed for freedom from the demands of official life and wished to live in a less restricted fashion, following his personal inclinations. After taking possession of the dilapidated Saion-ji and Kitayamadai from the Saionji clan, Yoshimitsu began the construction of his new residence, the Kitayama palace, in The design of both the architecture and gardens exhibited the epitome of refinement, but he devoted the most attention to the Relics Hall-the Golden Pavilion.
In , Yoshimitsu held a magnificent ceremony for the imperial visit of Emperor Gokomatsu r. Yoshimitsu resided at Kinkaku-ji until his death at the age of It was after the death of Yoshimitsu that Yoshimochi designated Muso Soseki the honorary founder of the temple and officially named it Rokuon-ji.
In addition, many Zen temples, including Shokoku-ji, were destroyed by fire during the Onin War Following the Onin War, the fifteen generations of Ashikaga shoguns came to an end, and after the turbulent Azuchi-Momoyama period , the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate, Tokugawa Ieyasu inaugurated an age of peace. Saisho Shotai secured the financial foundation of Rokuon-ji and his disciples went on to inherit the post of abbot to the temple.
In the Meiji Period, Rokuon-ji lost its official sponsorship and with it, its base of financial support. It was also a target of the persecution of Buddhism that took place in Japan at this time, but overcame these difficulties through the efforts of its abbots and survived. It first opened its doors to the public in , under the auspices of its abbot, Kanso Choro, on the occasion of a major trade fair held in Osaka.
The gardens of Japanese temples reflect the Buddhist worldview, as do the temple buildings. Simply by visiting a temple and experiencing its environment, one comes into contact with the teachings of Buddhism in a form even more convincing than sermons or lectures on Buddhist doctrine.
With the dramatic growth of the Japanese economy after World War II, Kinkaku-ji has become an extremely popular tourist destination. Large numbers of people have had the opportunity to experience and learn to appreciate Zen and Zen culture through visits to Kinkaku-ji.
Pure Land Paradise drawn by Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. Built Destroyed Reconstructed The name Kinkaku-ji means the "Temple of the Golden Pavilion". Constructed in Kyoto's northern hills in by Yoshimitsu, the third Ashikaga shogun , it was once part of a much larger villa complex. When he died it became a Zen temple in accordance with his will. Sadly, the original temple burned in when a deranged Buddhist monk set it ablaze. Each floor of the Kinkaku-ji is a different style.
The first floor - called The Chamber of Dharma Waters—is inspired by the Heian mansions of the 11th century and often described as the Shinden style. It is merely a large room surrounded by a veranda. The veranda sits beneath the more massive second story and is separated from the interior by reticulated [Reticulated: relating to or denoting a style of decorated tracery characterized by circular shapes drawn at top and bottom into ogees , resulting in a netlike framework] shutters called Shitomido.
The Shitomido reach only halfway to the ceiling, allowing ample light and air in the interior. Intended as a Buddha hall, it encloses an icon of the Bodhisattva Kannon. The third story is built in the Zen style, with cusped windows and ornamentation.
Appropriately, it houses an Amida triad and twenty-five Bodhisattvas. A Chinese phoenix crowns the eaves. A curious detail is that this was the only original building in the complex that survived to our days, since the others were destroyed by war and rebuilt over time.
However, in a crazy monk set it on fire, trying to commit suicide afterwards. The monk was captured and subsequently the police called his mother for questioning.
