Tenshitsu Sojiku (1605-1667) was a Rinzai (Ch. Linji) sect priest who hailed from Owari (Nagoya). He called himself by various pseudonyms including Ichinyo, Nyogen, Sudojin, Haryushi and Randojin. As heir to Gyokushitsu Sohaku (1572-1641), the 147th bishop of Daitokuji who built the Hoshun-In in the Daitokuji precinct, Tenshitsu Sojiku became the head priest there in 1654. He was then assigned to take charge of temple affairs at the Tokaiji in 1663 and died on August 26th four years later, after writing a farewell verse at the age of 63. The posthumous honorary name bestowed upon him was Daikaku-Enmyo-Zenji.It is possible to identify the scroll exhibited here to have been written on New Year’s Day in the year before the Reverend Tenshitsu became the 190th bishop of the Daitokuji. He was 49 then and the verse in the seven-character-quatrain style expresses his emotions at approaching senior age. The relaxed strokes speak of the writer’s maturity.
