  • This paper analyzes the results of molding three-dimensional data to recreate partially destroyed Shugendo art from Mt. Hiko. This study also illuminates the culture of Shugendou by drawing upon the author’s knowledge as a sculptor to examine magaibutsu (stone Buddhist reliefs carved on natural rock).

5. Mikako Tomotari (知足 美加子), A Study of the Buddhist Stone Reliefs of Mt. Hiko and the Influence of Shugendo in the Kyushu Region, Religion and the Arts, Leiden,Netherlands;Koninklijke Brill NV(ブリル学術出版社) , 10.1163/15685292-02104001, Volume 21, Issue 4, pages: 459 –489-12, 2017.10, Shugendo, which prospered during Japan’s Middle Ages, valued ascetic practices and fused mountain worship with Taoism, Shinto, Buddhism, Animism, astronomy, and medicine. However, since it was transmitted via oral tradition from one generation to the next, limited evidence can be found. Therefore, this essay analyzes 3D imaging data of stone reliefs found at Mt. Hiko, located in the Kyushu region of Japan, to discern whether the carvings depict certain deities and how the Sanskrit characters found in the moon circles represent Shugendo thinking. In addition, it examines how the influence of Shugendo art spread throughout the Kyushu region, Kiyomizu (Kagoshima Prefecture), and Aoki (Kumamoto Prefecture) as well as reassesses its cultural significance. With regard to the former, the results show that a relief of a seated Amitabha was engraved between two other deities: the Mahaasthaamapraapta and Avalokiteśvara. Concerning the latter, the findings reveal that these were the locations of Amitabha worship by the esoteric Tendai sect, which revered “the water” (rivers) and represented an association among Mt. Hiko, Kumano, and Aoki..
