The room of Loving Buddha statues

Manaita Miroku
I grew up in the temple from a childhood term to 29 years old.
The temple call them “Roku-Zizo” means 6  Zizo Buddha statues.
I was always hear chanting sutra and bell of the temple.
Old Buddha engraver was always chanting sutra
and engraveed the stones by  his chisel.

“Nam Amidabutsu, Nam Amidabutsu, Nam Amidabutsu,!”

“Manaita” means the cutting board.
”Miroku” means the Bodhisattva from 5,670 million years after future for saving people.

This is the drew on the cutting board used for 13 years
when I lived in Tunashima Yokohama.


The fruits Nirvana

This is the homage of “The vegetable Nirvana” by Ito Jakucyu.

The position of Gotuma Buddha is in drian fruit.

Banana, pineapple, starfruit,
the fruits of Southern plants lament separation from Gotuma Buddha.


Hoichi the Earless

Dozing Fugen Bodhisattva
Fugen is the Bodhisattva of wisdom and wealth.

Kujaku-myo-ou has note type PC
Kujyaku Myo-ou means the god of peacock who has superpower.
The monk of esoteric Buddhism told us that
chanting sutra of  Kujyaku Myo-ou is powerful but dangerous.
If it make mistake in chanting,
he might be distortion of space inhales.
That because why I  draw note type PC, so I felt something  fear from it.


 Mexican thousand hands Kannon 

Mexican  thousand hands Kannon appear in the Caribbian sea.
Fundamentally the Buddha statues are visualized from the energy of the universe.
Because it depend on the country and area, it is OK to change their each form.
That is my thinking.

 Because reason why I  put the Mosque and Church and Temple
paint together in the same picture.
But in the picture,chicken and peach, garnet, hamburger…
I wonder they have bad  related and quarrel each other.

 Everybody!
Please peacefully! 


Raggae Kannon
Why Kannon is wearing reggae costume?
You should remember where Gotuma Buddha born in.
 
Oh, you say Jamaica is not India.
Yes, you are right but same hot country isn’t it? 
And Indian people really like listening reggae, please say any more…

I want to say that blue sea is not imagine related in India,
but some Buddhism sects are born in Indian sea area.

This picture was made by such a feeling from.


The Mandala of the Diamond Realms

The Mandala of the Womb Realms

The Mandala is the design of the universe.
And it expressed and visualized the instruction not only told by the words.

The Mandala of the Diamond Realms just like fatherhood.
It express the structure of the universe.

The Mandala of the Womb Realms just like motherhood.
It express the comprehend of the universe.

The Mandala of the 2 division express the perfect world.
