Item Details

Description

East Asia, Japan, Edo Period, ca. 19th century CE. A fantastic wood Zushi shrine containing a gilt wood statue of Bato Kannon (Hayagriva ), who presides over the realm of animals in the Buddhist Six Realms of Existence. This manifestation is wrathful, and part of Esoteric Buddhism, here he has the iconic horse head resting atop the 3 heads, 8 arms, upon a stunning lotus pedestal. A scrolling cloud motif areole behind him, and glass sequins set into his third eye, and necklace with additional brass ornaments. The wood cabinet shrine has warriors painted within, and a dragon upon the exterior. The finer additions and details make this a truly special example. Size: 10.5" L x 6.5" W x 18.5" H (26.7 cm x 16.5 cm x 47 cm)

The fearsome visage was created to protect the faith from demonic forces of the former religion as well as eliminate any obstacle that stood in the way of the path toward Enlightenment. In Tibet, Hayagriva is one of these protectors and worshipped as the patron deity of horse merchants- the characteristic horse head protrudes from the headdress. Hayagriva is usually shown as a horse-headed deity, but in one myth he challenges the demon of vice, Rudra, to battle and Hayagriva enters Rudra's anus, destroying the demon from the inside out, the horse head emerging from the skull, and the triumphant Hayagriva then uses Rudra's body like a garment. In Japan Hayagriva was known as Bato Kannon, and was worshiped as a horse guardian and savior of other animals. The horse head here symbolized the deity's vehicle or mount. Shrines for his worship were often built by travelers on roadsides to honor horses that had died.
