Daruma-ji
Daruma-ji's main hall
- ... that Daruma-ji (pictured) was razed in the early 14th century by Buddhists who opposed the spread of Zen Buddhism in Japan? Source: https://www.zenbunka.or.jp/pub_etc/pub/docs/kiyou/032_逆丁02John.pdf Quote: "Such attacks on Zen continued, with Hieizan objecting in 1305 to Emperor Gouda establishing Kagenji in Higashiyama for Zen. The project was stopped. Then there was a “purification” of Darumadera in Yamato’s Kataoka, with it razed to the ground. The Zen monks there tried to rebuild."

article was expanded from stub, is well-sourced and the hook is interesting. No copyvio detected. Approved! I think that the link to Japanese Zen can be useful, but it's for you to decide. Artem.G (talk) 09:43, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
