Benten-dō

The hall is dedicated to Benzai-ten, the deity of the arts and knowledge. She is popular as the only female deity of the well-known Seven Deities of Good Fortune (Shichi Fukujin), a Japanese group of prosperity deities originating in other belief systems including Hinduism and Taoism. Each one of the seven represents a different virtue and bestow varying benefits, in the current constellation known since the 17th century. Benzai-ten, representing joy, is traceable to the Hindu deity of wisdom, music and art. She is usually depicted playing the biwa lute.

This small chapel was built in 1930 to commemorate the millennial anniversary of the passing of Emperor Daigo. It has a closed structure and the altar is only visible through a lattice, nevertheless, it is one of the most famous photogenic spots within Daigo-ji. The typical Japanese Shintoist features of Benten-dō, such as white walls and wooden parts in vermillion red, are believed to ward off calamity. Surrounded by trees appearing in the middle of the koi (carp) pond with an arched bridge, it has the aura of illuminous solemnity. The site is particularly popular in autumn when the foliage of the maple and the ginkgo trees turn hues of yellow and red.

辯天堂

辯天堂供奉藝術與知識女神「辯才天」。辯才天是來自印度教及道教等其他宗教的福德眾神「七福神」中唯一的女神，備受世人喜愛。七神可招來各異的恩德與財運，17世紀後便以目前形象為人所知。辯才天源自與智慧、音樂、藝術相關的印度教女神，一般常以彈奏琵琶的模樣現身。

辯天堂建於1930年，以紀念醍醐天皇逝世滿千年。此堂不向公眾開放，只能透過格柵觀賞內部祭壇，不過即便如此，辯天堂仍是醍醐寺中最受推崇的拍照景點之一。辯天堂採用朱紅色的木材，在白牆的襯托之下，充滿了日本神道教的經典元素，可為世人消災解厄。半圓拱橋下是鯉魚池，坐落樹林之間，氛圍莊嚴肅穆。尤其入秋後，楓葉與銀杏葉紅黃交映，更加動人美麗。不妨來古時高僧的起居處「壽庵」一邊飲茶一邊欣賞辯天堂，必然能享受片刻的幸福時光。
