One night in autumn, the chicken made a call late in the night.

That night, the chicken appeared in a dream of the priest of 菩提寺 the Family Temple Bodai-Ji of the Sakamoto family.
"I am the chicken of the Sakamoto Family.
The cat of this family wanted to use poison to kill the master of the family, so I begun to make noise to wake him,
but I was killed instead. Now I want you, the priest, to tell him the truth."
The next morning, the priest went to the family, where the head was just preparing a bowl of soup.
At that moment, the cat jumped in from outside, put something in the bowl and run away.
The head did not see it and put the bowl to his mouth to drink.
The priest hastily stopped him and told him about his dream.
They looked in the bowl and found the head of a poisonous lizzard.
Now the head wanted to kill the cat, but the cat never came back to the house.
Uhei felt remorse for killing the chicken and had a special ritual held in its honor.

ある店の裕福な若主人が3年前に人相占い師に見てもらったところ、3年以内に寒さと餓えで死ぬが、信貴山の毘沙門天に寒参りすれば、その厄を免れて長生きできると告げる。若主人は2年間参ったが、最後の年の参詣時に大雪に遭い、従者に先に登ってカゴを借りてこいというが、従者が戻ったときには若主人は凍死していた。

昔、信貴山の僧に頼尊という笙の名手がいた。毘沙門天に名笙を作りたいと願ったところ、示現があり、山の谷に行ってみると、1夜の内に竹が生えていた。その竹を用いて、笙を作り、国々に1つづつ配った。竹が生えた谷を笙が谷と呼んだ。

Jichi Bosatsu 十地菩薩 Juji - 10 stages of a Bodhisattva
十地菩薩誓 / 菩薩の十地



- quote
十地(じっち、じゅうじ)は、
菩薩が修行して得られる菩薩五十二位の中、下位から数えて第41番目から第50番目の位をいう。十廻向の上位であり等覚より下位にあたる。上位から法雲・善想・不動・遠行・現前・難勝・焔光・発光・離垢・歓喜の10位がある。

仏智を生成し、よく住持して動かず、あらゆる衆生を荷負し教化利益する様子が、大地が万物を載せ、これを潤益(にょうやく)することに似ているから「地」と名づく。

法雲地(ほううんじ)
智慧波羅蜜を成就して修惑を断じ、無辺の功徳を具足して無辺の功徳水を出生して虚空を大雲で覆い清浄の衆水を出だすためにいう。平等の原理と差別の人間とが一体となった、平等即差別、差別即平等の真如の世界。

善想地(ぜんそうじ)
力波羅蜜を成就して修惑を断じ、十力を具足し一切処において可度不可度を知り、よく説法する位。一切の修行を完成した大慈大悲の菩薩が、真理の世界から具体的な事実の世界に働きかけ個々差別の衆生を救済する。

不動地(ふどうじ)
願波羅蜜を成就して修惑を断じ、無相観を作(な)し、任運無功用に相続する位。大慈大悲の心を起す。

遠行地(おんぎょうじ)
方便波羅蜜を成就して修惑を断じ、大慈悲心を発し二乗の自度を遠離する位。十十無尽の境地に入る。この位は第二阿僧祇劫の行を終えたとする。

現前地(げんぜんじ)
智慧波羅蜜を成就して修惑を断じ、最勝智慧を発し染浄の差別なきを現前せしめる位。不退転の位で決して後戻りせず、必ず仏になる確信を得る。

難勝地(なんしょうじ)
極難勝地ともいい、禅定波羅蜜を成就して修惑を断じ、真俗二智の行相互いに違異なるを和合せしめる位。四諦の法門の外に大乗の法門を学び、利他行に取り組む。

焔光地(えんこうじ)
焔慧地ともいい、精進波羅蜜を成就して修惑を断じ、智慧を熾盛に光らしめる位。個々の物に対する執着心を離れ、その功徳として四方を照らす。

発光地(はっこうじ)
忍辱波羅蜜を成就して修惑を断じ、諦察法忍を得て智慧を顕発する位。精進の結果、その功徳として光を放ち十種の法明門を行う。

離垢地(りくじ)
戒波羅蜜を成就して修惑を断じ、毀犯の垢を除き清浄ならしめる位。十の善を行い、心の垢を離れる。

歓喜地(かんぎじ)
菩薩が既に初阿僧祇劫の行を満足して、聖性を得て見惑を破し、二空の理を証し大いに歓喜する位。仏法を信じ、一切衆生を救済しようとの立願を起こし、ついには自らも仏になるという希望を持ち歓んで修行する。

They are a kind of clay bell (Hikosan dorei 英彦山土鈴), said to be the oldest ones used by the Shugendo ascetics.


Some even had a Tengu goblin mask on the bell.


There are three famous HIKO mountains 彦山 in Japan:

Formerly "Hiko" was written with the characters 日子, meaning "child of the sun"; in the first half of the ninth century, during the reign of the Emperor Saga, it was changed to the single character 彦, and then again to 英彦, its present designation, in 1729, at the order of the Retired Emperor Reigen. According to the Kamakura-period Hikosan ruki, the Gongen of the Three Places of Mt Hiko (Hikosan sansho gongen) was composed of Mt Zokutai in the south (Shaka), Mt Hottai in the north (Amida) and Mt Nyotai in the center (Thousand-armed Kannon).

Hikosan is the second highest mountain in Fukuoka.

彦山豊前坊はどこからやって来た?
豊前国の田川郡(福岡県)と中津市(大分県)の境にある英彦山(ひこさん/古くは彦山)は古代からの霊山(神体山)で、熊野の大峰山、出羽の羽黒山とともに「日本三大修験山」に数えられます。
ご祭神の天忍穂耳命がアマテラスの息子であることから、「アマテラス=日(太陽)」の「子」で「日子(ひこ)山」と呼ばれ、それが彦山、英彦山となったということです。

The Momoyama period daimyo 大名 Kobayakawa Takakage 小早川隆景 (1532-90)
supposedly held dialogues with the tengu king Buzenbou 豊前坊 (Buzenbo) on Mt. Hiko 彦.
The Tengu of Mout Hiko appears out of the mist to enlighten the swordsman Kobayakawa Takakage, in this print by Yoshitoshi.


(Print featured at the Yoshitoshi Ukiyo-e Web Gallery in the Ghost Series).
小早川隆景彦山ノ天狗問答之図


Says Goodin:
“What I found most interesting was that the scene was shown from the tengu's perspective, that is, from his side of the mist. Through breaks in the mist, Kobayakawa can be seen sitting composed ready to receive the tengu's message while his men recoil in fear.”
- source : Mark Schumacher


Kobayakawa Takakage 小早川 隆景 (1533 – July 26, 1597)
a samurai retainer of Toyotomi Hideyoshi during Japan's Sengoku period, and the son of Mōri Motonari. Adopted by the head of the Kobayakawa clan, Takakage took his name, and succeeded his adoptive father to become head of the Kobayakawa clan following his death in 1545.
As head of the Kobayakawa clan, he expanded the clan's territory in the Chūgoku region (western Honshū), and fought for the Mōri clan in all their campaigns; for a time, he also opposed both the great warlords Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi. He later swore loyalty to Hideyoshi, however, and entered his service; he was then awarded domains in Iyo Province on Shikoku and Chikuzen Province on Kyūshū, totalling 350,000 koku.
Takakage took part in Hideyoshi's invasions of Shikoku, Kyūshū, and Korea, and adopted Kobayakawa Hideaki, formerly an adopted son of Hideyoshi, and named him successor to the clan.
