This gentle wooden statue depicts Yakushi Nyorai (Bhaisajyaguru), presented with a simple posture and a composed expression that reads as calm and reassuring.
Hand-carved in Japan by Buddhist sculptor Yoku Fujita, it is made from hinoki (Japanese cypress), allowing the natural warmth and softness of the wood to remain part of the finished presence.
About this piece
Carved by hand from hinoki, this work reflects Yoku Fujita’s approach to Buddhist sculpture: clean lines, restrained detail, and a quiet, everyday scale. The figure follows established Japanese sculptural conventions for Yakushi Nyorai—an icon type long maintained through temple imagery and workshop transmission—while being interpreted in a contemporary, simplified manner. This form exists within the tradition of devotional Buddhist statuary, where recognizable attributes and a steady seated presence are preserved so the image remains immediately legible as Yakushi Nyorai.
Cultural note
In Japan, images of Buddhas and bodhisattvas are commonly approached as objects of reverence—whether in temples, home altars, or quiet personal spaces. Yakushi Nyorai is widely regarded as a Buddha associated with healing and restoration, and many people relate to this figure through wishes for well-being and steadiness. A respectful approach is simple: place the statue somewhere clean and settled, avoid treating it as casual décor, and handle it with calm attention (often with clean hands), especially around the face and head. Even outside formal practice, it is customary to keep such an image in a space that supports a composed mindset.
