ABSTRACT
The ‘Kenjuroku’ is a book of 54 case reports written by Yoshimasu Todo in 1763. The cases studies of four Buddhist monks (Gyokutan, Soboku, the director of Seikoji temple, and the son of the director of Shorakuji temple) from Toyama prefecture are described. Through an investigation of the biographies of these men, the authors attempted to determine the disease condition and symptoms present at the time of their meeting with Todo and inclusion in his book. These four cases were unique in that they appeared to have actively accepted Todo's new medical theories. This led to a discussion of the analogous aspects between his theories and the doctrine of Jodo-shinshu.
