Benzaiten 弁才天, 弁財天 Inokashira 建国記念の日 2014
Benzaiten (弁才天, 弁財天) is the Japanese name for the Hindu goddess Saraswati. Worship of Benzaiten arrived in Japan during the 6th through 8th centuries, mainly via the Chinese translations of the Sutra of Golden Light, which has a section devoted to her. She is also mentioned in the Lotus Sutra and often depicted holding a biwa, a traditional Japanese lute, in contrast to Saraswati who holds a stringed instrument known as a veena. Benzaiten is a highly syncretic entity with both a Buddhist and a Shinto side.
Referred to as Sarasvatî Devî in Sanskrit (meaning Goddess Saraswati), Benzaiten is the goddess of everything that flows: water, words, speech, eloquence, music and by extension, knowledge. The original characters used to write her name read Biancaitian in Chinese and Bensaiten in Japanese (辯才天) and reflect her role as the goddess of eloquence. Because the Sutra of Golden Light promised protection of the state, in Japan she became a protector-deity, at first of the state and then of people. Lastly, she became one of the Seven Gods of Fortune when the Sino-Japanese characters used to write her name changed to 弁財天 (Benzaiten), emphasizing her role in bestowing monetary fortune. Sometimes she is called Benten although this name usually refers to the god Brahma.
In the Rig-Veda (6.61.7) Sarasvati is credited with killing the three-headed Vritra also known as Ahi (snake). Vritra is also strongly associated with rivers, as is Sarasvati. This is probably one of the sources of Sarasvati/Benzaiten's close association with snakes and dragons in Japan. She is enshrined on numerous locations throughout Japan; for example, the Enoshima Island in Sagami Bay, the Chikubu Island in Lake Biwa and the Itsukushima Island in Seto Inland Sea (Japan's Three Great Benzaiten Shrines); and she and a five-headed dragon are the central figures of the Enoshima Engi, a history of the shrines on Enoshima written by the Japanese Buddhist monk Kōkei (皇慶) in AD 1047. According to Kōkei, Benzaiten is the third daughter of the dragon-king of Munetsuchi (無熱池; literally lake without heat), known in Sanskrit as Anavatapta, the lake lying at the center of the world according to an ancient Buddhist cosmological view.
Benzaiten is a female kami to Shinto with the name Ichikishima-hime-no-mikoto (市杵島姫命?).[1] Also, she is believed by Tendai Buddhism to be the essence of kami Ugajin, whose effigy she sometimes carries on her head together with a torii (see photo above). As a consequence, she is sometimes also known as Uga (宇賀?) Benzaiten or Uga Benten. Shrine pavilions called either Benten-dō or Benten-sha (弁天社?), or even entire Shinto shrines can be dedicated to her, as in the case of Kamakura's Zeniarai Benzaiten Ugafuku Shrine or Nagoya's Kawahara Shrine.
Honpo-ji Founded in 1436!
In 1604, after Toyotomi Hideyoshi's invasion of Korea and China ended, the Korean side sent Shoun Daishi (Sa Myung Dang) to Japan to uncover Japanese postwar intentions. He stayed at this temple until he met Tokugawa Ieyasu at Fushimi castle in the spring of the following year. Many Japanese Buddhist monks and scholars visited him and deepened their friendship by communicating with him through writing and exchanging Chinese poems. After determining that Ieyasu had no belligerent intentions in the third month of the following year, diplomatic relations between the two countries were resumed two years later.

Koshoji Temple is relatively new by Uji's standards. Originally built in 1233 at a different site in Kyoto, the temple was transferred to Uji in 1648. The temple features a beautiful garden in its open court, with a five storied stone pagoda and carefully pruned trees and bushes.
Koshoji is still a working temple and is famous for its impressive colored leaves in the autumn. The approach up to Koshoji is lined with numerous maple trees that form a tunnel of color around late November.

Shinano Kokubunji Temple
Ueda City, full of magnificent nature and history, is located in the eastern part of Nagano Prefecture. Ueda was the capital town where the local government was placed in the Shinano region (now Nagano region). For more than 1200 years, Ueda has preserved historical architecture including the famous Shinano Kokubunji ruins. This temple was built in the middle of the 8th century. Shinano Kokubunji was established by Emperor Shomu. As a prayer for peace for the nation, he constructed Todaiji Temple and Daibutsu (a large Buddha statue) in Nara. During the same period, the emperor constructed replicas of Todaiji in other parts of Japan. The name, Kokubunji means temples divided into countries.
