義安寺の六部堂 - A hall for a Rokubu pilgrim at 義安寺 Gian-Ji, Matsuyama, Ehime.
This hall is to enshrine the Rokubu named 友兵 Tomohei
He was a rich farmer and had a happy family life - all went well until his wife died of leprosy. He had to bring up his daughter おしげ O-Shige all by himself, but the girl at age 15 got the same disease as her mother. Tomohei bought all kinds of expensive medicine and prayed to the deities, but the girl did not get better. He sold all his fields, put 66 copies of the Lotus Sutra in a pilgrim's backpack and became a 六十六部 Rokujurokubu, walking away with his daughter.

On their way he was told that the hot spring at 道後 Dogo Onsen in Matsuyama would heal. So they went to Matsuyama. By now the daughter was 19 years. But the hot spring did not heal, her face became worse and she had to shield away from human looks.
She died on August 26 in 1806.
When Tomohei came back to his home, he was filled with grief.
He died on the May 18 in 1818.

Despite his deep religious faith he had lost his family. Tomohei died, saying:
"It is no use praying to Kami or Buddha for the safety of yourself and your family.
Pray to me instead."
This temple is called お六部さん O-Rokubu San by the local people.

At the Rokubu-do pass, I couldn't find a hall. Just a signpost for hikers.



Pilgrim road from 45th temple (Iwaya-Ji:岩屋寺) to 46th temple (Joururi-ji:浄瑠璃寺)
I tried to cross over this pass and found the route to the pass has completely disappeared. I "swam" in a heavy bush and got the pass at last. None of the pilgrim now walk on this route, I suppose.

On a route to 秩父観音霊場 Kannon temples in Chichibu



On the way down from 大日峠 Dainichi Toge pass. One can imagine a pilgrim being totally exhausted and coming to his end here and villagers building a memorial for him.

A narrow pass cut through a steep rocky mountain at Kazuma(数馬の切り通し)
It is not accepted opinion, but some says this narrow pass along a cliff was made by a Rokbu and a farmer in 1699. Before this pass was opened, people had to climb up and down the mountain ridge
