Kongō Yasha Myōō is presented here as a focused, forceful figure from the Godai Myōō (Five Wisdom Kings), carved with a fierce expression and multiple arms in a compact, upright form.
This piece is made to bring a clear, steady presence to a room—an image chosen by some for times that call for resilience and decisiveness, rather than softness or comfort.
About this piece
Carved from hinoki (Japanese cypress), this statue is produced through wood carving based on established iconographic models used for Myōō images in Japanese esoteric Buddhist traditions. The form—fierce face, dynamic posture, and multiple arms often associated with vajra imagery—follows a long workshop lineage of devotional sculpture where specific attributes are preserved so the figure is immediately recognizable within the Godai Myōō set. This type of image exists as part of a traditional grouping commissioned and enshrined together in temple settings, with each Myōō taking a defined role within the set.
Cultural note
In Japan, Myōō (Wisdom Kings) are understood within Mikkyō (esoteric Buddhism) as powerful protectors who embody disciplined force in service of awakening; their fierce appearance is not seen as “evil,” but as an expression of uncompromising clarity. Kongō Yasha Myōō is approached as a guardian presence—an image associated with confronting obstacles and transforming turbulent states into steadiness. When kept in the home, such figures are typically treated with respect: placed in a clean, settled spot, oriented with care, and handled with calm intention (avoiding casual placement on the floor or among clutter). Many people also choose to keep the area around the image simple and tidy as a basic sign of regard.
