Chikurin-ji (竹林寺) is a Buddhist temple located in the Arisato neighborhood of the city of Ikoma, Nara Prefecture, Japan.

Meanwhile, the Chikurinji Ayakuroku (written in 1305) by Gyōnen, a scholar of Tōdai-ji, states that Gyōki entered Mount Ikoma in 704 and lived at "Kayano Senbo."

The contents of the tombstone are preserved in the documents of Tōshōdai-ji, and according to which, Gyōki was cremated at the "eastern tomb of Mount Ikuma" after his death at Sugawara-dera (now Kikō-ji Temple in Nara City).

[1] On November 11, 1933, this was designated an Important Cultural Property under the name "Fragment of Gyōki's Copper Relic Vase" and is currently in the possession of the Nara National Museum.
