阿弥陀寺住持(阿弥陀寺和尚)是谁?
用经文守护芳一的和尚
阿弥陀寺住持是「无耳芳一的故事」中的僧人,他欣赏芳一弹琵琶和说唱的才华,让芳一住在寺里,照顾他的生活。
住持察觉芳一每晚都偷偷外出,便派寺里的杂役跟踪,这才知道芳一是被平家的亡灵召去了。他担心再这样下去芳一会丢掉性命,就和弟子小和尚一起在芳一全身写满《般若心经》,并叮嘱他:「无论谁叫你,都绝对不要应声,也不要动。」有了经文,亡灵就看不见芳一的身体;但因为耳朵上没有写经文,芳一的耳朵还是被夺走了。
第二天早上,住持发现流着血的芳一,自责没有确认耳朵上是否写了经文,向芳一道歉,并请来医生为他治疗。弟子小和尚也作为和住持一起写经文的人物登场。
