| Note: This array
of Emma-O, king of hell, and his accompanying judges, is
located at Byodoji, Temple #22 of Shikoku's famous 88 Temple Pilgrimage.
You can read more about my visit to Byodoji in my Logbook, or go to the Shikoku
homepage to read about the entire journey.
It's interesting to see Jizo
Bosatsu (the Chinese Di Cang Wang [Ti Tsang Wang]) standing next
to Emma (Sanskrit Yama) pleading the cases of the accused.
And seated on Emma-O's other side: is that Bodhidharma, one shoe
in hand? |
