Miedo

Every morning at six o’clock, the monks of Tōji serve a meal of tea, rice, fruit, and seasonal vegetables to a statue of Kūkai (774–835), the founder of Shingon Buddhism, who is known posthumously as Kōbō-Daishi, or the Great Teacher of Buddhist Doctrine. Kūkai lived in the Miedo while he was abbot of Tōji Temple. The morning ceremony is open to anyone, and those in attendance are allowed to touch one of the relics that Kūkai brought back from his studies in China.

The Miedo burned down in 1379 but was completely rebuilt by 1390. It was one of the few buildings at Tōji that survived a subsequent fire in 1486. Its architectural style is more secular than religious, resembling the manor houses of nobles and high-ranking samurai of the early Heian period (794–1185).

御影堂

真言密宗開山祖師為空海大師（774-835），諡號弘法大師。其任東寺「別當（寺務統籌）」一職期間，曾定居於御影堂之內。如今每日早六時，東寺僧侶便備茶飯果蔬等膳食，敬奉空海大師，稱「生身供」。該法會於清晨舉行，為公眾開放，空海大師自大唐求得的佛陀舍利之一，也可供參加者親手觸摸。

御影堂於1379年焚毀，之後在1390年得以重建。1486年，東寺遭逢祝融之災，該堂成為少數倖免於難的建築之一。御影堂雖屬宗教建築，卻更接近世俗式樣，是模仿平安時代（794-1185）早期的貴族、上層武士府邸修築而成。
