In order to increase our understanding of the supporters of Buddhism during the Nara Period (710-784) this research project takes as its subject Gyoki, who was particularly active during the Tempyo era (728--748). A survey of the literature on Gyoki reveals a debate over whether he continued to be persecuted by the central government or whether after his appointment as Chief High Priest of Buddhism in 744 (Tempyo 17) he became a eminent monk who distanced himself from the populace which he had previously embraced. Taking this controversy as a starting point, this dissertation analyzes numerous legends surrounding the founding of temples (engi) throughout Japan. This study reveals that Gyoki's name can associated with so many institutions that the number rivals that of temples said to have been established by Kukai, Kobo Daishi. Thus the term Gyoki densho, Gyoki Legends, can be used in the same way as Taishi sinko, Kobo Daishi Worship, which is often associated with the Eighty-eight Pil … More grimage Temples on the island of Shikoku. Just as research on Kukai has evolved through the study of the popular traditions of Kobo Daishi Worship, in the case of Gyoki, it is my belief that it is necessary to take into account the Gyoki Legends as well. Thus, this research project focuses on the diffusion of the legends associated with Gyoki.Among the results of my work has been the discovery that in the southern part of the Tohoku district where legends associated with the monk Tokuitsu are widespread and in the Hokuriku district where legends associated with Taicho are widespread--places where legends associated with Gyoki had previously been thought not to have existed--indeed Gyoki Legends are prevalent. Thus, it can be assumed that from early times Gyoki Legends were maintained by some religious goups and came to compete with the legends about the local eminent monks. In future studies through investigations of specific examples of these coexisting competing legends, I intend to clarify further the history of the supporter of Buddhism of the Nara period. Less

为了增进我们对奈良时代（710-784）佛教支持者的了解，本研究项目以在天表时代（728- 748）尤为活跃的教基为研究对象。一项关于Gyoki的文献调查显示，他是否继续受到中央政府的迫害，或者在744年（天pyo 17）被任命为佛教首席大祭司后，他是否成为了一个杰出的和尚，与他之前所接受的民众保持距离。本文以这一争议为出发点，分析了日本各地关于建寺的众多传说。这项研究表明，Gyoki的名字可以与许多机构联系在一起，其数量可以与据说由kuukai， Kobo Daishi建立的寺庙相媲美。因此，“教基传说”一词可以与“太石神”、“Kobo大石崇拜”一样使用，这通常与四国岛上的八十八座寺庙有关。就像对酷开的研究是通过对Kobo Daishi崇拜的流行传统的研究而发展起来的一样，在kyoki的情况下，我认为有必要考虑到kyoki的传说。因此，本研究项目的重点是与Gyoki有关的传说的传播。在我的研究成果中，有一项发现是，在东北地区的南部，与德愈和尚有关的传说流传甚广，而在北ku地区，与太町有关的传说流传甚广——在这些地方，与Gyoki有关的传说以前被认为是不存在的——实际上，Gyoki传说是普遍存在的。因此，可以假设，从早期开始，一些宗教团体就保留了Gyoki传说，并与当地高僧的传说竞争。在未来的研究中，我打算通过对这些共存的相互竞争的传说的具体例子的调查，进一步阐明奈良时期佛教支持者的历史。少
