Hokozan Ganshoji Temple(寶壺山願勝寺)possesses more than 1,000 documentary records published or transcribed between the Edo Period through Meiji Period. These documentary records are the learning materials as well as the record of their learning, transcribed and read deeply through successive generations by chief priests and disciples at Ganshoji Temple. In this article, I focus on three chief priests, namely Gigo(義剛), Kaimyo(快明)and Kaien(快淵), who left considerable number of books of transcription and of own possession. Using their transcribed books as sources, I will examine their transcription activities chronologically to analyze the place and context of transcription activities. Then based on the analysis and comparison of contents of transcribed documentary records, I argue that accumulation of documentary records on practical learning on the Buddhism has influenced not only subsequent transcribing activities on the practical aspect of the Buddhism but also learning on theoretical aspect of the Buddhism. I shed light on a few aspects of the learning by the three chief priests on the basis of the contents of books of their possession.
