The Bodhisattva Nyoirin Kannon, 14th century

Ryōzen

Nanbokuchō period, Japan

Ink and light color on silk

The deity Nyoirin Kannon sits atop a boulder on a verdant mountainside, his eyes downcast in silent contemplation. Nyoirin Kannon is said to fulfill people’s every wish and is depicted here pondering how to save humanity. The spot his left hand touches gleams golden. In the sutras, which explain the teachings of Buddhist deities, it is written that Nyoirin Kannon touches the “shining mountain,” Mount Potalaka. This painting alludes to that detail by depicting him touching a gleaming golden rock. The artist is Ryōzen, who was active in the vicinity of Tōfuku-ji Zen Temple in Kyoto during the 14th century. The painting bears Ryōzen’s signature in its bottom-right corner. No details about Ryōzen are known, but it is rare for the name of the artist of a 14th-century work to survive, making this a valuable example. This is an ink wash painting. The artist portrays a space with depth through the use of different shades of ink. The use of gold causes Nyoirin Kannon to stand out against the black ink used for the majority of the painting. Details such as the deity’s diadem, accessories, the pattern on his robe, and the veins on the leaves of the lotus throne on which he sits are delicately portrayed using gold paint made from a gold-powder base. Similar uses of gold paint are often seen in traditional paintings of Buddhist deities. In this painting, the gold-painted sections appear especially vivid amid the varied shades of black ink.

I Want To Meet Buddha

Evening

NHK "Shumi Dok! Kanto Ai ni Ikitai Buddha-sama"

I got to go on the show🍀 I'm thankful for this wonderful opportunity🍀

Touching Buddha statues, isn't really something I've done before but,

Thanks to Wada-san and the teacher with their lots of knowledge, I think it was the most enjoyable for viewers……😳

The difference in expressions, the differences in eras, I didn't know there were so many!

Although its still shallow, my interest really really deepened in 1 day,

Actually a few days after the shoot,

Wada-san had recommended, so I went to visit the hidden Buddha Nyoirin Kannon at Gokokuji temple! On the day of the reveal of the thoroughly hidden Buddha!

It was really brilliant and beautiful😌✨️

Instagram 💙 

From 10:30PM~< there is a special show on Space Shower TV!!

I'm sure that, Morning Musume '23, will convey our love for Morning Musume, I think🥹❤️

Since Nonaka Miki-chan had to take a break during this time, she is absent from the show

It had been a while since being fired up for an intro quiz…… lol

Please enjoy!

see you ayumin <3

Nyoirin Kannon, Chuguji, Japan - 1960s postcard of a 7th century sculpture.

Below: a more recent image showing the colouring which is either the camphor wood it's carved from, or a product of centuries of smoke from incense and candles (it was originally painted white)

[mikansei]

it's january 3rd and i have not finished a single kisuke but what i DO have is:

a hime cut, for some reason (that was supposed to be a warmup sketch but u will notice there is ink. Do Not Ask)

a desperate reckoning with the six arms of Nyoirin Kannon statues and my phone’s horrible camera (at about which time i realized the pose i have in mind has far outstripped my abilities. also i couldn’t draw the hougyoku so it’s a d20)

this sick ass benihime i looked up so many pictures of bjds for (and that i drew on the back of another drawing and didn’t mean to render. “it was only supposed to be a quick sketch" my old nemesis. my beloathed. worstie i did not miss u)

and

appx. half a kisuke and a composition mockup i spent WAY too long on considering i’m not actually going to draw it digitally, but at least i can rearrange his legs without erasing holes in the paper

edit: WAIT

ooh ahh perspective......

#listen ok #listen. #rendering his chest with a 1.16px brush was just. really important. for four hours #pls ignore that he has shoes i used up all my knowledge of foot anatomy on the statue's feet and had none to spare for his #spent all that time putting his legs on separate layers to move them around and i think i'm going w/the first pose anyway lol #did a faceless sketch with all the detail of a crash test dummy need hair that fluffy. no. #but by god i have 2 hands and the unerring if unaimable laser focus of semi-medicated adhd #my art

For the reading!

First name: Chelci

Last initial: W

Two traits: 1. I have black shoulder length hair. 2. I have a birthmark shaped like the state Texas.

For my question I would like to know if two people/entities,

1. I 👹

2. JM 💉

were me in a past life if possible. It's kind of dumb but I constantly go back to this and I just wanted to know if I was right or if maybe it's me just having a strong interest in the two and just projecting something that's not there.

If it's not possible please don't feel like you have to answer. Thank you so much and I hope you have a wonderful day 😊.

Also, sorry for the initials, I just felt it would be better that way especially for the second one.

Hi Chelci!

Let's see...

For you, I was drawn to my Esoteric Buddhism of Japan Oracle Deck, and I picked: Nyoirin Kanjizai Bosatsu!

To quote my book: "[She] is one of the Six Kannon, savior to those wandering lost in the god realm. In Esoteric Buddhism, she has six arms and sits with her right knee up as the savior of the Six Realms of Rebirth."

She has many meanings, but they can largely be boiled down to this: granting ones' hopes, and inner reflection.

In your case... You are struggling with discerning between the truth and your own desires. This is not an easy task... And sometimes it is not easy to get a clear answer.

But this card, and the message I am receiving, is telling you to look for your "sincerest desires: feelings that bubble up from deep in your soul, that make your heart feel joyful and light." When it comes to discerning fact from fiction, this kind of feeling is almost always a guaranteed answer. So spend some time analyzing these thoughts and memories... And if you have this feeling well up, from deep, deep within, then you know that it is true.

Thanks for the ask! Past-life stuff is always very tricky. I hope this resonates!

Blessings!
