EDO Gilt-Wood Amida Nyorai Buddhist Statue Zushi Shrine

An Edo Period Wooden Image of Amida Nyorai with its original zushi encasement shrine. Patron Diety/Saint of People born in the year of Dog, Boar/Pig. It is believed that those who believe and worship him will be blessed with rebirth in paradise after life and with eternal peacefulness in heart.

Amida is one of the loftiest savior figures in Japanese Buddhism, and Amida faith is concerned primarily with the life to come, the life in the beyond. Amida is also one of the Five Tathagata of Wisdom. The world-famous Big Buddha (Daibutsu) statue in Kamakura, around 15 meters in height, is Amida. To followers of Japan's Pure Land sects, Amida has eclipsed the Historical Buddha as the most popular divinity in Japan's Mahayana traditions. Excerpt from http://www.onmarkproductions.com/html/amida.shtml
