Juusanbutsu 十三仏 Jusan Butsu, 13 Buddhas
- quote
The Thirteen Buddhas (十三仏, Jūsanbutsu) is a Japanese grouping of Buddhist deities,
particularly in the Shingon and Tendai sects of Buddhism.
The deities are, in fact, not only Buddhas, but include bodhisattvas and Wisdom Kings.
In Shingon services, lay followers recite a devotional mantra to each figure, though in Shingon practice,
disciples will typically devote themselves to only one, depending on what the teacher assigns.
Thus the chanting of the mantras of the Thirteen Buddhas are merely the basic practice of laypeople.
Funeral rituals
The Thirteen Buddhas are also an important part of a traditional Japanese Buddhist funeral service,
with each deity having a corresponding memorial service for the deceased.
The thirteen in Japanese and Sanskrit and the corresponding date of their service after the death are:
01 Fudō (Acala), 7th day - 不動明王
02 Shaka (Sakyamuni), 14th - 釈迦如来 day
03 Monju (Manjushri), 21st day - 文殊菩薩
04 Fugen (Samantabhadra), 28th day - 普賢菩薩
05 Jizō (Ksitigarbha), 35th day - 地蔵菩薩
06 Miroku (Maitreya), 42nd day - 弥勒菩薩
07 Yakushi (Bhaisajyaguru), 49th day - 薬師如来
08 Kannon (Avalokitesvara), 100th day - 観音菩薩
