Product Details

Daikokuten, the god representing fortune among the Seven Lucky Gods, is known for his happy smile as he wields the magic mallet, bestowing upon you both financial and overall luck. Originally rooted in Hinduism as the supreme deity Mahakala (an alias of the god Shiva), Daikokuten was later incorporated into Buddhism as a god of abundant harvests belonging to the heavenly realm. In Shinto, he became integrated with the deity Ōkuninushi no Mikoto and is now regarded as the guardian god of kitchens.

The treasure-laden box at the feet of Daikokuten, called "Hōshō Daikokuten," symbolizes the great fortune and blessings it brings to noble households. Its elegant and vibrant colors complement any room. Embrace the powerful financial prosperity bestowed by the palm-sized Daikokuten.

Throughout history, Daikokuten has been revered as a deity bringing happiness and prosperity. Believers from the business and artisan communities fervently worship him for blessings related to abundant harvests, thriving businesses, and financial well-being. There is also a tradition of enshrining Daikokuten alongside Ebisu, another god associated with fortune and treasures. This practice dates back to the Muromachi period, as described in the narrative collection "Chiri-zuka Monogatari," stating that households across the land would install images or paintings of Ebisu and Daikokuten, praying for wealth and prosperity.

The roots of Daikokuten trace back to the supreme Hindu deity Mahakala (an alias of Shiva). Initially a god associated with warfare, creation, and destruction, Mahakala transitioned into a god of abundant harvests upon adoption into Buddhism. In Shinto, Daikokuten fused with Ōkuninushi no Mikoto, becoming a kitchen god ensuring a lifetime of prosperity and financial well-being, symbolized by the term "Daikoku-bashira" (the central pillar supporting the entire house).

Over its long history, Daikokuten has accumulated diverse attributes, representing prosperity, the bounty of food, flourishing businesses, protection from conflicts, and the joy of family through dance. As an all-encompassing deity of good fortune, it is recommended to enshrine Daikokuten for the happiness of oneself and one's family.
