Fudō Myōō is a carved figure of the steadfast guardian known for immovable resolve, shown with a sword in his right hand and a rope in his left.
This is a substantial, altar-scale presence at nearly 29 cm tall, with a focused, intense expression and clear iconographic attributes that make this “Takeda” form immediately recognizable.
About this piece
Carved from hinoki (Japanese cypress), this piece is made as a finished devotional-style sculpture with crisp detailing across the face, implements, and stance. The model follows the well-known “Takeda Fudōson” tradition associated with the Takeda clan; a widely told account holds that Takeda Shingen had this form modeled after himself, reflecting a historical preference for a Fudō image that emphasizes immovability and command. Such variants developed through long-standing workshop patterns and regional traditions, created to meet the needs of patrons who sought a specific, recognizable form within the broader Fudō Myōō lineage.
Cultural note
In Japan, Fudō Myōō (Acala) is venerated in Esoteric Buddhism (Mikkyō) as a powerful protector figure who supports discipline and the overcoming of obstacles; his sword and rope are understood as implements that cut through delusion and draw beings back from harmful entanglements. Images of Fudō are approached with respect as religious icons: people commonly place them in a clean, settled spot, keep the area orderly, and handle the figure with calm intention rather than casually. If you choose to display him at home, a simple mindset of sincerity and steadiness is considered appropriate, and many avoid placing such images directly on the floor or in disorderly spaces.
