This paper offers a consideration of the manuscripts transcribed at the five temples in Sōji-ji 總持寺 from the collection of Denkōroku 伝光録 manuscripts that are records of Keizan Jōkin’s 瑩山紹瑾 lectures. The first to be considered is the newly discovered Denkōroku manuscript preserved at Dairyū-ji 大隆寺 transcribed in 1757. The Dairyū-ji manuscript is a re-transcription of a manuscript from 1530. Since the Dairyū-ji manuscript faithfully copied this manuscript, it is a valuable source.
Secondly, consideration is given to the colophon of the Denkōroku manuscript preserved at the Yōtaku-ji 永沢寺 transcribed in 1813–1814. Concerning the picture of transcription activity of the Denkōroku in the five temples in Sōji-ji, while it had previously been recognized that manuscripts were transcribed from collections from each of the five temples, the Hōshun-in 芳春院 that dominated the Sōji-ji politically and economically preserved several Denkōroku manuscripts, and the Denkōroku was actively transcribed from these collections.
