"17 Article Regulation of Ancient Times"
Reprinted in Yamaguchi, 2005, pp. 169-170.
This very significant set of komusō regulations appears to have been issued by the Edo twin temples Ichigetsu-ji
and Reihō-ji, dated the 6th month of the year Enpō 5: July, 1677.
Do note that, composed and issued by the komusō "twin temples" in Edo, this document refers to the komusō brotherhood as a shūmon,
宗門, a "doctrin", "creed", "sect" - not as Fuke-shū,
普化宗: "Fuke Sect".
