【Product details】
This auction presents a remarkable wooden statue of Indara Daisho (Indra), one of the twelve protective deities known as the Twelve Heavenly Generals in the Buddhist pantheon, associated with Yakushi Nyorai (Bhaisajyaguru). Indara Daisho, recognized for his role as a guardian of the zodiac and a protector of believers, is depicted here in a traditional and imposing stance, holding a spear as an emblem of his warrior status.
The inscription on the back reads "Wooden Jizo, Indara Daisho Standing Statue, Carved by oneself, Spear in hand," indicating the personal effort and devotion that went into crafting this piece. Indara Daisho is characterized by an expression of fierce anger, signifying his role in eradicating the causes of confusion and suffering, and is believed to lead 7,000 followers in the defense of Buddha's realm.
Age has left its mark on this statue, with noticeable wear, dirt, peeling, cracks, and some chips. Please examine the photos to evaluate the statue's condition thoroughly. Despite these signs of time, the statue remains a venerable piece of religious artistry, embodying deep cultural and spiritual significance from the Edo period.
