Fudō Myō-ō
Fudō Myō-ō, known as Acala in Sanskrit, is a significant guardian deity in Buddhism, especially revered in Japanese esoteric Buddhism (Mikkyo). Fudō Myō-ō is an incarnation of Dainichi Nyorai (Mahavairocana) and is often depicted with an angry expression and a fearsome appearance. However, his anger is meant to destroy evil and protect believers.
Fudō Myō-ō is characterized by a halo of flames, a stern expression, a large sword (Kōma-ken), and a rope (Kensaku). The sword symbolizes the power to cut through ignorance and worldly desires, while the rope represents the ability to bind evil spirits and bad habits. Fudō Myō-ō holds the sword in his right hand and the rope in his left hand.
The worship of Fudō Myō-ō has spread beyond Japan to other Asian countries, including China and India. He is believed to provide protection from disasters, healing from illness, prosperity in business, and other benefits. Many Buddhist temples and shrines have statues or paintings of Fudō Myō-ō as objects of prayer.
Fudō Myō-ō is a deeply respected and venerated figure among Buddhists, offering a sense of security and courage with his powerful protection and compassionate heart.
Tatsuyama Stone
Tatsuyama Stone, or "Tatsuyamaishi" in romaji, is a type of natural stone found in specific regions of Japan. As its name suggests, it is sourced from the "Dragon Mountain." Due to its beautiful coloration and unique texture, Tatsuyama Stone is widely used for garden decorations, architectural materials, and sculptures.
The characteristics of Tatsuyama Stone include its exceptional hardness and durability. This makes it ideal for use in traditional Japanese structures such as castle walls, stone walls, and garden stone lanterns. Its natural appearance and beautiful patterns also make it a popular choice for ornamental purposes.
In Japanese gardens, Tatsuyama Stone is especially valued as an essential element that enhances the landscape. The selection and placement of these stones are done with great care to imitate natural scenery, ensuring that they blend harmoniously with the surrounding environment.
