    "description_ja": "瑞光寺は、聖徳太子の創建と伝えられ、現在の大阪経済大学敷地にあった。三寶寺の全盛時代に堂宇のひとつに属した臨済宗の禅寺であったが、建武年間（1334～1336年）の頃、火災に遭い建物が焼失した。その後、寛永20年（1643年）に伊予の国の天然という臨済宗の僧がこの地に入り、観世音菩薩を本尊に白隠禅師を坐主に迎え、指月寺と名づけて復興した。しかし、昭和20年（1945年）6月の大空襲で本尊の十一面観音を除いて、豪華な堂塔伽藍から寺宝一切を失った。その後、昭和59年（1984年）に再建され現在に至っている。瑞光寺の境内にある「弘済池（こうさいち）」には、全国にもここだけと思われる、鯨の骨でできた「雪鯨橋」が架かっている。4世住職潭住（たんじゅう）が、宝暦6年（1756年）に南紀を行脚しているとき、太地浦（現在の和歌山県太地町）の漁師に不漁であったことから豊漁の祈念を請われた。潭住は「殺生は五戒の一つ」として断ったが、ついに祈願に応じた。鯨がたくさん捕れたお礼として、30両と鯨骨18本が贈られたが、潭住は鯨を供養し、すべての生き物を大切にするという祈りを込めて、この橋が作られたといわれている。現在の橋は、6代目の橋で、平成18年（2006年）に架け替えられたものである。",
    "description_en": "Zuikoji is said to have been founded by Prince Shotoku and stood on what is now the grounds of Osaka University of Economics. It was a Rinzai Zen temple, one of the halls belonging to Sanboji at its height, but its buildings burned in a fire in the Kenmu years (1334-1336). In Kan'ei 20 (1643) a Rinzai monk called Tennen, from the province of Iyo, came here, set up Kanzeon Bosatsu as the principal image, invited the Zen master Hakuin as head, named the temple Shigetsuji and restored it. Everything from the splendid halls to the temple treasures was lost in the great air raid of June of Showa 20 (1945), except the eleven-headed Kannon, the principal image. The temple was rebuilt in Showa 59 (1984) and stands so today. Over Kosaichi pond in the grounds is Setsugeikyo, a bridge made of whale bone, thought to be the only one of its kind in the country. When Tanju, the fourth abbot, was travelling in Nanki in Horeki 6 (1756), the fishermen of Taijiura, now Taiji in Wakayama prefecture, asked him to pray for a good catch, since the catch had been poor. Tanju refused at first, saying that taking life is one of the five precepts, but in the end he prayed. In thanks for the great catch he was given thirty ryo and eighteen whale bones, and the bridge is said to have been made as a memorial for the whales and as a prayer that every living thing be held precious. The present bridge is the sixth and was rebuilt in Heisei 18 (2006).",
