Product Details
The goddess who was worshipped in ancient India as the overseer of good fortune was later incorporated into Buddhism and became known as Kissyoten. Typically depicted in the form of a Tang Dynasty noblewoman holding a wish-fulfilling jewel, this statue, however, exhibits a bold deformation characteristic of Mokushu's style.

This model is based on a wooden sculpture located in the main temple of the Hōkokudera school of the Rinzai Zen sect, Hōkokudera, in Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture. Hōkokudera is the main temple of the Hōkokudera school of the Rinzai Zen sect and was founded by Mubun Gensezenji, a son of Emperor Go-Daigo. As a temple with imperial connections, it suffered relatively minimal damage during the anti-Buddhist movements, and it continues to preserve many cultural treasures. Mubun Gensezenji encountered a storm at sea on his return journey from China, but he was saved by a deity known as "Hansōbō." This deity reappeared during the founding of Hōkokudera, and after Mubun Gensezenji's passing, it was enshrined as the guardian deity of the remote mountain where Hōkokudera is located, gathering strong faith from the local people ever since.
