This is a scroll from a set of sutras dedicated and copied by Emperor Shotoku (r. 764-779) for the sake of "the first sacred one" on the third day of the fifth month of Jingo Keiun 2 (678). It is also known as Shomu Tenno Gogankyo (Sutra Dedicated by Emperor Shotoku) and Jingo Keiunkyo (Sutra of the Jingo Keiun Years) . There are two theories on who this "first sacred one" was: one theory suggests that it was the previous emperor, Junnin (r. 758-764); another theory asserts that it was Shotoku's father, Emperor Shomu (r. 724-749).
