In 1290, the Lord of Ueno, Nanjo Tokimtsu, built the Taisekiji Temple at 

Oishigahara for Nikko. Nanjo Tokimitsu, the Lord of Ueno, was the uncle of 

Nikko's disciple Nichimoku. 

In 1291, Nikko moved to the town of Omosu in Kitayama where he founded the 

Honmonji Temple in February 1298 with the help of Nitcho. He spent the rest 

of his life at this temple. His lineage is referred to as the Fuji Lineage. 

Nikko appointed two sets of six senior disciples to take over for him after 

his passing. The first set consisted of: Nikke, Nichimoku, Nisshu, Nichizen, 

Nissen, and Nichijo. The second set consisted of: Nichidai, Nitcho, Nichido, 

Nichimyo, Nichigo, and Nichijo. 

This perfectly reflects Nichiren's choice of six senior disciples and is at odds

with Taisekaji's claims. As an aside, these facts prove that, at the very least, 

Nikko had a rapproachment with Nitcho, another of the six elder priests.
