Product Details

It is believed that the primary role of Jizo is to protect children with a great amount of compassion. In addition, because the deity is believed to be an incarnatin of Enma, the King of Buddhist Hell, people believe that Jizo helps those who serve time in hell, as long as they prayed to Jizo at least once while they were alive. Typically, JIzo is depicted as holidng a wish-granting jewel In its left hand, and a six-ring staff in its rigth hand. These items, respectively, help grant the wish of people and dispel wordly delusions.

Jizo Bodhisattva, known as 地蔵菩薩 (Jizou Bosatsu) in Japanese, is an important bodhisattva in Japanese Buddhism, widely revered as a symbol of compassion and salvation. Jizo Bodhisattva is particularly popular within Japanese Buddhism and holds significant importance for many believers.

Jizo Bodhisattva is typically depicted in the form of a monk or as a child monk and often wears a halo or a crown. In his hand, he holds a precious jewel (sometimes with a ring around it), which is a symbol of Buddhist teachings and is used to spread the Dharma, or a representation of his vow to help all beings. His hand gestures often include forming the mudra of virtue with the right hand and holding the precious jewel with the left hand, symbolizing salvation and happiness.

Jizo Bodhisattva is known as a compassionate bodhisattva, particularly associated with saving the souls of deceased children, stillborn or miscarried infants, and those who have committed transgressions. He is often referred to as the "Bodhisattva who rescues from hell," as he is believed to pray for the salvation of the deceased and assist in purifying their karma. Additionally, Jizo Bodhisattva is considered a protector of travelers and seafarers, believed to safeguard them from accidents and difficulties during their journeys.

Jizo Bodhisattva is widely enshrined in Buddhist temples and shrines throughout Japan, especially in places known as "Jizo temples" or "O-Jizo-sama" shrines. Believers and visitors offer prayers to Jizo Bodhisattva, seeking the well-being and safety of children, blessings for the deceased, and protection during travels. These sacred places often feature numerous stone statues of Jizo, and visitors may leave small stones or toys as offerings while making wishes.

In summary, Jizo Bodhisattva is a revered figure in Japanese Buddhism, symbolizing compassion and salvation, particularly in relation to the souls of children and those in need of spiritual help. His presence provides hope and comfort to individuals through personal prayers and beliefs, deeply rooted in Japanese culture and religion.
