 History of Us Ueda Iwaminokami,the first generation of butsugonji, is the direct line of Sasaki-Kyogoku Family, and one of the immediate followers of Honganji. After serving Shakunyo-Syounin's journey,directed northern area from old capital Kyoto and after the Zuizenji Temple built by the Imperial Order, he protected Zuisenji as a leader of Samrai. In the end of Muromachi era, the whole country was fiercely forested by the warring country Daimyo, but Zuisenji only seeked to stable Hokuriku area society as a major hub of Joudo-Shinsyu (Sect of Buddhism). Numerous letters from Takeda Shingen, Hatakeyama Yoshituna and others remaining in temple tell the era of disturbance. Although Zuisenji was destroyed by Sassa Narimasa, Zuisenji got a chance pf reconstruction following the order of Kanpaku Hidetsugu(nephew of famous Daimyo, Toyotomi Hideyoshi),at that time Ueda Iwaminokami built Butsugonji in the land of Fujibashi. |

| In modern times, Sengoku warrior Uesugi Kenshin, also known as "Dragon of Echigo" or "Army God". It is a person with a strong image as a hero, such as being serious about righteousness and never expanding territory with own ambition.
&On the other hand, the fact that he led his soldier himself to Ecchu for over 10 degrees in his lifetime is unexpectedly unknown. Among other things, Jimbo Nagatoshi who had power in Ecchu and Ikkou-ikki had been fought battles at Toyama Castle as the main stage. This exhibition birds-eye over the Ecchu during Warring States period, placed in a turbulent swirl, from various materials related to Kenshin that are transmitted both in and out the Toyama prefecture, and we will approach the actual situation of "Kenshin Koshinaka". From our temple,Butsugonji, we are exhibiting two letters of correspondence sent to Ueda Iwaminokami from Takeda Shingen who was a rival of Kenshin's lifetime.
