Shun-oku So-en (1529-1611) was a priest affiliated with the Daitokuji of the Rinzai sect of Buddhism. He was originally from Kyoto and used the pseudonym of Ichimokushi. Originally trained under Koin Soken (1506-61), together with Kokei Sochin (1532-97), Shun-oku succeeded to Shorei Sokin after Ein’s death and became the 111th bishop of the Daitokuji in 1569. In the temple compounds, Shun-oku built smaller Buddhist structures such as the Sangen-In, Ryuko-In and Hoshun-In, setting the foundation for the golden age of the Daitokuji during medieval Japan. In 1586, Emperor Ogimachi (1517-93) honored Shun-oku by bestowing on him the title of Rogen-Tenshin-Zenji, while the Emperor Goyozei (1571-1617) bestowed upon him the title of Daiho-Engan-Kokushi. Among Shun-oku’s disciples were such prominent priests as Takuan Soho (1573-1645) and Kogetsu Sogan (1574-1643). Shun-oku is also known to have granted Zen names to some tea masters, e.g., Kobori Enshu (1579-1647) and Furuta Oribe (1544-1615).
